Mud Puppies

This morning at the barn was quite amusing. The horses got to go out this morning after being in for two days due to the cold and mud. I let Pete out of his stall first today, he meandered out and went exploring, so I went on and let Eddie (boarders horse) out and he happily trit trotted out and all a sudden I heard this loud pounding sound and looked up to see Pete had realized it was time to go out and decided to jet for the door. First wow, he does know how to run and two wow, those big feet make a lot of noise. Katie was the next bit of extra excitement this morning, she trotted briskly out of her stall to the paddock door and decided she didn’t want to go out into the mud, so she turns and tries for the back door which is often drier but closed, so she comes back, makes a big lap around the barn and gets the nerve to leap out the gate into the mud. Once out they were a sight, Katie was hopping up and down in the dry areas of the paddocks, the others were all running around, mud was flying everywhere, they will be gross tonight.
