Mousey's triumph



This morning I took this lovely series of pictures. I feel quite emotional to see Mousey so accepting of this attention after being such a terrified pony last October. She is ready to go home, but will probably stay until July. She is very lucky to be owned by, and will return to, SWEP (South West Equine Protection) and they will continue to work with her and provide her with a safe home for life.


In the pictures she is HEADCOLLARED ! ... and TIED !... safely, because she understands how to yield to pressure. As you can see in the first picture, she stands relaxed, with loose rope and calm eye, whilst Paul brushes a foreleg.



In the second picture Mousey shifts her weight to allow Paul to pick out a hoof.









The third picture shows how Mousey enjoys having her tail brushed! She looks really good now.






Fourth picture - Mousey is fine with back feet too!


The final picture shows Mousey so relaxed while Paul brushes out her mane, just by her damaged ears.
