Wacky Barn Hijinx Ensue

Fri Nov 3, 2006

Pulled up to the barn after work, and saw horses running all over the
place in Quzqo's pasture! I didn't see him, but his QH "twin", Colby,
was frantically galloping around...Haflingers and Paints all over the
place, and three humans running around with them! What the hell???

Then in the midst of the chaos was...Touche'...the Shire/Paint Cross,
and his Mini-Me, Plus Vite, the pony...galloping all through the
mob...and a little black Corgi on their heels, LOL!

Touche is gorgeous when he gallops, but I don't think anybody else
thought so. I couldn't imagine WHAT was going on, because Touche and
Plus Vite are in the next door pasture (The "Bad Boyz"
pasture)...supposedly.

I was greatly relieved to find Quzqo in his stall, safe and sound (and
he was very displeased that his dinner was NOT in there waiting for him). I
brushed him and fussed over him, and dinked around for about half an
hour, before Bob came in the barn, leading Touche. Bob was NOT pleased,
LOL! Apparently Touche' (and Plus Vite) had smashed through the wire and
broke down the fence, and got into the other pasture, and were basically
terrorizing all the horses contained therein! The young girl that helps
bring in the horses told me that when they went out there, Quzqo came
running right up to her, like "PLEASE! GET ME OUTTA HERE!!" so she was
able to bring him right in, LOL

Coos HATES/FEARS/LOATHES Touche'...if Touche' is near the fence if I'm
bringing him in, Coos gets all upset! I can imagine his horror to find
that big nasty thing in HIS pasture!! (Touche' is easily 18hh...Coos is
14hh)

Thankfully nobody (horse or human) got hurt. Bob's comment was "That
horse is a JERK", ha!
