Moving time!

Well it has come time to move Ambassador closer to home. Not just for us, but for him also. I find a farm just down the street. Oh, it will be grand to have him so close. The very beginning of February we decide to move Ambassador. Ok, well little did I know he wanted nothing to do with the horse trailer.

First thing he does is trot over to say hello to the mares. Then it takes both myself and the lady with the trailer to hold onto him, keep him pointed in the trailer. Well, then it comes to our attention that he hasn't eaten yet. Okay lets try bribing him on. With a flake of hay and a scoop of grain we slowly coax him on the trailer.

After three hours, yes three hours we get him on. Yeah! He rode the whole way to his new place very peacefully. When we get there he unloads beautifully.
