Only A Day Late! But He Brings Pics!

Yesterday I had arranged to meet the farrier at lunchtime.

Now, because DJ lives "out" his legs are wet and muddy, so I got there at 11am, so as to start to dry them off - He was happy as it was damp in the air, and he was in his box eating hay!

Anyway - 11.so ... and Ian arrives!

So, I had to put his leg-supports on, and apologise to Ian for how muddy he still was, despite my best efforts!

Anyway - while getting him in, I did his bit if the MEME ... yes, mountainheather  had asked for some DJ pictures.   Here he is, just straight in from the field.


 


I then took him in his box and gave him some hay, before attempting to dry his legs!
 

 

 

After the farrier had finished I fed him and took him back to his field, so he could show off his new shoes to Conrad!.

On the way home I drove up to take a picture of his scarey oily patch, that kalinda001  had requested - but it was so damp and muddy, I could hardly see it - I should have taken DJ with me - Anyway - I am standing on the patch to take a photo of the road ... so, almost there Kal!

Almost! DJ is so cute. Almost as cute as Jiffy.

He is almost as fluffy as well - well, he would be if it stopped raining long enough!

Damp and muddy where you are and we had an icy night here. Strange. DJ seems to take things in stride. Does he every get worked up besides the times you are riding and something spooks him?

No life is very much taken as it comes - He is Irish in breed, which helps - and a pony, which means life is OK ... whatever.

More rain = more mud = more fun to roll!

He's pretty! Thanks for the pics. :)

LOL... what a muddy horse, but yay for new shoes. :D

Ah! That darned oily patch. Is he doing better around it?

[debris4spike]

He has been better around the oily patch - but we haven't gone down that way by ourselves - that will be the real test!

Aww DJ is adorable, even when muddy

[debris4spike]

He is a sweetheart ... most of the time - LOL

Oh poor muddy DJ! He looks happy now though :-)

[debris4spike]

He loves mud - easier to roll in!

How big is he? 14.2hh ish? Tom loves to roll even though he's so old he rolls every time that he's turned out. :)

Like the clean pics you linked to too :) Very smart.

[debris4spike]

Yes - he is a 14.2 ... and loves to roll - as you can see by this extra link!!
