Well it has been raining since last night and I think it will be raining most of tomorrow too. Of course the Vin man will not duck into the shed so he looks like a drowned rat.
I know he was built for this kind of thing by good ole Ma nature, but I can't help worrying about him being wet for so long. I feel like I am dropping the ball somehow.
He is happy as a clam and shows no signs of the weather bugging him at all. He does his morning stretch, goes in for breakfast, comes out and begs for a cookie,and stands right next to me while I give him some pets and check him over for any overnight damage.
I will be so glad when the winter is over and I can get more saddle time on him. I think that will be the best thing for him, to have a job and learn Mounted Shooting. I will start the training this weekend. I will buy some baloons and tie them to his pen until he gets used to them. Then I will pop a few and see how he reacts. I will keep on doing that until he learns it is no big deal.
Then it is time to start with blank gun shots Acroos the yard at first and then closer and closer until I can fire the pistol right next to him. Then the big one!! Getting on him and shooting.
That's it for now. I sure hom Vinny can swim! It's raining pretty hard now.
