The Magical Thing About a ZB

 I've been working out of town, which severely limits barn time. 

But I have a ZB.

So when I had 48 hours in town a few weeks back, Nadia asked if I wanted to haul out to go trail riding and the obvious answer was YES. 

ZB has never hauled a ton and definitely not in the last year. 

O HAI

And it is so freaking cool to have a horse that I just loaded onto a trailer she'd never seen, took to a place she hasn't been in a long time, hop on, and go. (Ok hop on=train her how to back off a straight load, which took a minute, but then she got it.) 

JOONBUG R WALKIN VERY FAST

She led. She followed. She crossed boggy ground, walked by scary things, and never batted an eye. 


ZB R DYIN

By the end, she was SO TIRED, but gamely hopped back in the trailer and headed home like a total champ. 

And then used her new-found "backing off the trailer" skills. 

TL; DR she is the absolute best and hopefully next I will write about some of our exciting continuing adventures.

  1. Honestly, there is nothing better than a horse you can just DO things with and not worry about it. Those horses are worth their weight in gold
