Minnow’s Latest Trick
We are getting close to pony penning time! Which means it’s time for Minnow to start working on new tricks! Admittedly I tend to get so busy with other things I always seem to wait until July to start training Minnow new tricks for pony penning. Lucky for me he’s super smart and it doesn’t take him too long to master a new trick.
We’ve come up with a new act, that we’ll hopefully be able to debut at pony penning this year at the Chincoteague Pony Centre, so we’ve started working on some of the new tricks Minnow will need to know.
We’re going to keep our new performance under wraps for now, but we do have a new trick to show you.
Here’s a quick video of Minnow learning how to hold a rope and drag it to me. It may look like a pretty simple trick, but your horse also has to be very comfortable with ropes in and around their legs – you’d be surprised how scary that can be for some horse.
Hopefully you will be able to catch up with us at Pony Penning this year, so you can see all of Minnow’s new tricks in action!

Awesome trick! Minnow is so smart and cute. 🙂 Will you be recording the performance? I won’t be able to go, but I’d still love to see his new routine after pony penning is over.
I’m sure we will try to get lots of photos and videos while we are down there.
