I have a pony here,...Ha Ha :-) I can sympathize... I have a pony here, Dolly, and true to form, as a pony, she is ALWAYS getting out... The electric fence is useless, as she knows she just must hit it running, slide under (aka Kika) and keep going flat to the boards, and TA DA... She's out, without being shocked...

Thankfully all K wanted was the green grass on the other side. So once under the wire she was ging no further - espcially as she knew i was coming for her so she had to scoff as much as she could in the minutes it took me to get over my indignation to grab her - silly sod!<br />If i thought whistling would have any effect in overriding her quests for freedom and a full belly I'd try to teach her - but she's a stubborn Mule of a Mare and when she sets her sights on something...it's a case of Aoife - Who? Scoff scoff scoff!Aoifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06324156483692821044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568084884850100400.post-46133377678658743142012-04-14T22:54:51.845+02:002012-04-14T22:54:51.845+02:00You don't look like a gimp! lol. What a naught...You don't look like a gimp! lol. What a naughty pony! We had a similar escape yesterday with my trainer's daughter's old jumper. He made it all the way down the drive way, our trainer whistled and he came trotting back lol.L.Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052638724440787772noreply@blogger.com
