<< I would never ask Heidi to go where I think it is not safe. I always give her a loose rein and let her pick her own way down a steep hill. I do not make her go any faster than she wants. When going over fallen branches or logs in the trail, I always let her pick her way through. We must remember that our horse does not want to fall or trip anymore than we do. Good going Carol.

It is so funny to see her avoid them until she figures it out. >> Yes, it is pretty funny when their senses seem illogical to us: ) Tommes was VERY displeased with a neighbor's new entryway (stone facade, new mail box, etc.). I hardly noticed the change, but he was worried till we passed it several times and no demons came out it it... Brigid in CA
