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!
Smiling Chincoteague Pony!
Today we are off to the Extreme Cowboy Race at the Harrisburg, PA Horse World Expo! If you are in the area stop by and watch Boomerang compete on Saturday at 9:15am in the Equine Arena! If we qualify we will move onto the finals on Sunday at 9:15am in the Large Arena!
You can follow updates of the event over on our Facebook Page.
But before we leave, I wanted to give everyone the first look at Boomerang’s latest trick. Mastered in a mere 10 minutes, Boomer can now show everyone his pearly whites with a beaming smile! Ok so maybe they aren’t that pearly…..but atleast he looks happy!
