• Well i have been introducing Hope to King, my 15hh QH 🙂
    Shes not at all timid as we walk down the laneway with horses either side and thinks its all good fun, of course kept on a tight leash until she understands she cant enter their paddock. Most of the horses are dog savvy anyhow and wouldnt care but better safe then sorry 🙂
    Heres some pics from last nights visit 🙂
    *and the worried little look on her face in the first pic is cos its just hit wet season here and i made her walk thru water and mud puddles *giggle* she was finally at the stables, on dry land he he he*

    Maya loves my horses. When im feeling too lazy to walk her i take her out around the farmland for a ride with the horses, she always tries to race them 😃


  • Lovely pics of Hope and King.
    Fancy making her walk in the wet 😉
    Malaika is a little wary of Horses as we don't come across them very often. She agrees with me that Horses are lovely , behind a fence 😃


  • Lovely pictures. My Basenjis get on well with horses and cattle (sheep too, if they don't run!!)

    I wish i could get to the stage of doing this with Hope- however im still weary of letting her offleash lol

    ha ha - yeah im trying to teach her that when a horse moves, it doesnt mean it wants to play with her 🙂 (she however thinks, yay playtime!) My horse is a good boy though, he puts his head down to let her put her paws on his muzzle and to sniff each other etc 🙂 - she likes to stand on her back legs alot :rolleyes:


    heres some more pics 🙂

    still sorta a swamp until you get to the stables 🙂 gotta love wet season

    Hope tied up while i get the nag a feed


    Agility training


  • Great pictures!

    Maxx loved horses. We introduced him to horses by picking him up and letting him sniff noses…which he promptly licked. From then on, whenever we were around horses, he wanted to be picked up so he could lick their noses...even when we came across some miniture horses, he still wanted to be picked up. We tried to tell him that he could reach their noses from ground level, but he insisted on being picked up!


  • I know just what you say about the wet season although here we seem to have one throughout the year!! And it's mud,mud,mud! AND 32 feet to wipe!! Thank you for the new pictures.
