which i haven't yet cracked for monfils...
for the last week it's been unseasonably warm and i bought the thinnest rain sheet i could find (very thin) which he had on on Sunday; nonetheless, came in sweaty having been running about as a result of a hot air balloon....
this morning, below freezing - the thin rug from yesterday was still drying out from the sweat getting in to the very thin lining, so he had the slightly heavier thin green one ... and i'm not totally sure he won't be overheating overnight....
anyway, rattly bottles.... last lesson, RI used an empty small plastic drinks bottle with some gravel in it to rattle and thus send him away
good idea, worked.
doesn't work now - because he's been de spooked to it, i reckon! so that's what that was about, Trudi!
Had sheets on my Boys and found Chance sweating yesterday. Took the sheets off early today and now it's colder out. Too bad the horses can't change their own clothes at will. That way they could pick the perfect outfit each time the conditions change.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, it's just a never ending challenge.
Ah thanks for explaining Claire, yes I guess he's a clever cookie and has worked it out pretty quick!
