All the Pretty Horses

Snix' attitude seems alot better since I've let her out to graze in the yard a few times in the last week. I think it was Saturday that I spent awhile just sitting and lying on her back while she was loose in her pen. She mostly stood still and seemed to really enjoy my affections - especially my playing with her mane... she always loves that - she's very feminine! :)

As I sat on her, Chloe kept licking at Snix' nose. Snix bit at her once, then tired of chiding her and just started moving her nose to the side when Chloe would try to lick her. When I turned around on her back and laid my head on her rump, Chloe started licking on Snix' back leg.... tentatively at first. Then, when she saw that Snix wasn't going to react, she started licking harder, then biting (like when dogs bite at each others' fleas), then she started putting her teeth all the way around her leg (but without biting down - she does it to my hand when she wants me to get out of bed and/or play with her). It was so funny - Snix is a big dog to her! Snix was okay with it all till I got off her. Then, it was payback time! She laid her ears back at Chloe, gave her a very nasty look, then cow-kicked at her.

She's so protective of me. It's like I'm hers, and she is jealous to allow anyone else near me.... when I'm loving on her, she will chase Pepsi (and in the past, other horses as well) away from the fence, even though the other horse has no intentions on me! LOL Then, she'll come back to me, as if saying "you may continue." LOL She is definitely full of personality.

Todays quote is by one of history's most feminine women, in honor of Snickers distinct femininity....
