Minimiljøtrening for nakenhest

Det går fint å leie Sion og Biloxi ut og inn sammen, men når jeg har tid er det greit å ta dem litt hver for seg også. Sånn at de lærer seg at det er helt OK å stå litt alene inne eller ute. Biloxi var helt kul der han sto mutt putt alene i stallen, og Sion ventet tålmodig ute. Det vil si, han var tålmodig til vi kom inn, og da tok det jammen ikke lang tid før han satt tenna i den dekkenløse rumpa til Biloxi. Det var null nedbør, og ikke så altfor kaldt, så da lot jeg ham stå uten dekken en stund. Han står naken inne, så det er ikke en like stor overgang som om han var fulltids dekkenhest.

Leading Sion and Biloxi out and in together is no problem, but when I have the time I think it's good to lead them each on their own too. Just to teach them that it's OK to be left alone, inside or out, for a little while. Biloxi was fine with being left all alone in the stable, and Sion waited patiently. Or rather, he was patient until we were in, and then he couldn't wait to - literally - sink his teeth into his pal. I turned Biloxi out rugless for a while. He doesn't wear one when turned in, so it's not as big a change as if he was rugged full time.
