Huelio and Rocky had some visitors today. Charlotte's boyfriend Luke, his mum (and my friend Debbie) and two of her neice/nephew's came out in the rain to visit.
It stayed dry long h for a quick hallo and to give Huelio a few carrots, and Rocky too of course and I brought Huels up to the shed for a bit of a groom.
This was the first time the kids had come so close to a horse (how does that happen, lol). They like Huelio and he enjoyed the attention.
I also took Boston out to meet the horses and he was pretty unimpressed to say the least had a bit of a bark at them but without hackles up so nothing too serious, Huels just sort of checked him out and wondered what was his problem by the look of this photos. Once off the lead he reverted to his easy going self and didn't even care about the horses. I think he will be fine once he has been around them a few more times.
I told the kids a bit about horses and grooming and keeping them healthy and they gave me a hand to make up the feed. I had got all the gear out for them to have a ride but it just started pouring down with rain so a ride was out. I have asked them back soon as neither have been on a horse and I can lead Huels around with them on him without a problem, Huels is a very relaxed boy and very familiar with his role as a saddle horse, he will take it in his stride I have no doubt.
