So, I just got back from a walk with Chipper ("my" mini) around my hill on this GORGEOUS day. It's funny how much attention I get when I bring him along! If I watch, I can see people just staring as we walk by, lol. One time, last year when I was walking him, we almost caused an accident! There was someone driving by and she stopped dead in the middle of the road and squealed "Oh, what a cute pony!!" Of course, there was someone right behind her who was not expecting that, and they had to slam on their brakes. It was pretty funny! I can honestly say that Chipper stops traffic!
He was good the almost the entire way, except for the fact that he was SOOO slow! I had to drag him up our hill, haha. The one time he spooked was when a loud truck went by, and he did a little jump/prance after it went by, haha, SUCH A DORK!
There's one other story that I have to tell about Chipper, haha. Well, you know how on winter boots you have a cinch, and a piece of plastic that stops the cinch from coming off? Well, I was in his paddock one day and I was looking away and he grabbed the stopper in his mouth and pulled, so the elastic was stretched out like two feet (no lie!!) and then it finally came off in his mouth and the elastic snapped back on my leg (ow!). I got most of it out of his mouth before he swallowed it, and I was just like, "Chipper, you are SUCH a dork!!"
Anyway, Happy Frolicking in this lovely weather!
