Yay! Yentl is home.
Everything went smoothly. She loaded gently via a shute into the trailer. During the trip she was great. No panicky stuff.
Unloading went just as smooth. She first looked out of the open door, then carefully put first obe foot out on the ground, and then stepped out and walked into the arena. Sheri had backed the trailer right to the arena gate so that was awesome.
Sheri , thank you for your help! I admire your skills with the horse trailer. :)
Yentle is settling in nicely. Eats her hay, drinks her water and had her meet over the fence with Freya and Flicka. A few squeels from her part but that's normal. Flicka likes Yentl a lit and hanfs out by tbe fence with her. Freya is not sure. She doesn't like it when Yentl squeels. Hahaha.
Yentl smelled my hand and followed me alongside the fence. If I had oats she would have taken it from my hand. She doesn't like crunchies and apple. :)
She is doing really well.
Im sure we all become great friends.
She seems to love the curtain. Nice to know that it doesn't scare her at all It looks like she finds comfort in the straps on her body. Maybe it sooth her.
For now we just take our time to get used to each other. So much fun to just sit next to the arena and watch her eat and looking at me. She comes pretty close to me already. Very happy!
