March 28, 2011 - Busy barn

I didn't do much with Rory today.  I brought him into the barn for a quick grooming session.  The barn was busy and we had to use a different set of crossties that Rory hasn't been on before.  He was very good with all the activity of people taking hay and feed to the stalls, and dragging the water hose around, and tack into the tackroom.  I went into the tack room for a minute and he started swinging his bum towards the mare on the next set of ties (they're at right angles to each other).  I was just about to open the door and tell him to be careful the mare didn't bite his bum when she lunged at him.  Rory was out of her reach, but he got the message and straightened up quickly.  I was quite pleased with how calm he was with all of the activity around him.
