the equine dentist came today.
my plan was, after she'd been, to do some ground work with molly - and it was a gorgeous day for it ...
i brought her in to stand in the sun with a haynet outside whilst i mucked out and we waited for the dentist.
first time i've tied her up outside since the end of june as she'd kept pulling herself free, usually to go back to the field ... and because she wasnt' doing being left on her own well.
so im in the stable mucking out and she's standing happily eating, in a suntrap .. it was about 65 degrees in that corner; farrier's just finishing another horse and that horses owner is watching that...
one of the estate workers turned up to empty the bin...
next thing i knew there's the sound of hooves and riots, and molly's pulled back in fright, snapped the lead rope and was turned round to head away ... happily not fast but still
turned out the man sorting the bin out decided it was a really really good idea to flap the empty new bin bag about ..... stupid person .
so when it was molly's turn to have her teeth done, she wasn't good like the dentist says she normally is, but generally was very unhappy, especially when we were trying to keep her head down ...
think she's probably given herself a headache
so i thought the better thing to do was not do any work at all.
but she went out without her rug on for the afternoon, as it was so nice...
hopefully getting clipped tomorrow
