Show Preparation!

Well it's busy busy for us just now! We have our first show in 10 days a couple of minutes down the road so a good starting point for our first outing. Squiggy has been getting a bit in her mouth now for a month or two and I started leading her tonight which confused her a bit! I'm really paranoid about hurting her little mouth but she understands a lot of voice commands so the leading should get better with practice.

We're also getting a lickle pony on loan for the summer for Carla (4) so she'll also grace the pages of Squiggy's blog soon as she will be her official travelling companion! I think Squigs will be very very excited when we go out and about but I'm really looking forward to it as I think she will loooove it!

Trailer Training...

Well we're nearly on the move now! She's such a poppet. We've taken it v slowly with the trailer. I walked her through initially, then put the back ramp up, then front ramp then shut her in (this was done over several occasions). She has so far been very calm and grown-up about the whole thing. We have our first show on May 10th and we're just doing the one class (Youngstock). It's only down the road so a good starting point. Watch this space....
