As a middle-aged mare, it has always been my experience that trailers mean travel, usually to shows where I get to demonstrate my awesome reining skills. So I was surprised when Ben the Boss Buckaroo drove his trailer into the neighbouring Joes’ paddock and just…. left it there?
Soon I began to see the logic behind such a decision; Ben could hitch his horses there to get them ready if he wanted to go for a trail ride, and more importantly, Baby Joe came up with the great idea of going inside to get out of the hot sun!
Now even though we have shelters we can walk in and out of to get some shade, Baby Joe realized that he could make the trailer his own personal shady sleep spot – very luxurious lifestyle for a yearling! What horse doesn’t want a place to call their own, something they can decorate to their tastes and relax in? Baby Joe is the envy of the rest of the H2 horses.
While most times people have a hard time getting their horses into a trailer, Ben had a hard time getting Baby Joe out!
