Frekk Fru Flekk

Snille Katrin var innom stallen på tirsdag og i dag. På tirsdag gikk det greit å "fange" og "gre" hestene, men da hun skulle ha Sioux i skrittemaskin fant Fru Flekk ut at "nei, giiid, dette er skummelt altså". Så overbevisende var hun at Katrin ringte meg, og deretter fikk en hjelpende hånd av Wibecke. Etter ganske sikkert å ha sukket tungt over livets urettferdighet spankulerte Sioux pent og rolig rundt som hun skulle. Og jeg var glad for tilstandsrapport som indikerte at begge hester hadde det bra. I dag valgte Sioux å rømme når Katrin kom. Men i stedet for å diskutere (les, jakte på) vrang pinto lot Katrin henne bare stå igjen mens Biloxi fikk stell, kos og oppmerksomhet inne på stallen. Sioux var visstnok over gjennomsnittet enkel å fange når Katrin kom ned igjen etter en stund. *fnis* Utrolig deilig å ha noen som stikker innom og stuller og steller med hestene, og særlig når det kommer morsomme mailer etterpå! Takk Katrin! (håper det er greit at jeg har sneket inn et "arkivfoto")

Katrin has been nice enough to stop by the horses on Tuesday, and today. On Tuesday she had no problem catching and grooming both, but when she went to put Sioux in the walker MLP almost had her convinced that the walker was an instrument of torture, and extremely scary. Katrin called me, but everything was solved when Wibecke came by and put Sioux in without anyone falling down dead. After sighing heavily, Sioux walked as if nothing in this world could, or ever had, fazed her. And I got a lovely report. Today Sioux elected to run away when Katrin approached. But in stead of trying to catch her Katrin took Biloxi - only too eager to get picked first - with her in and gave him a good groom while Sioux was left to ponder what she was missing out on. It worked, as catching her wasn't an issue when Katrin came back later. It's so wonderful to have someone stopping by to give the horses a little TLC, and I particularly like the fun updates that pop into my mailbox. Thanks Katrin!
