Horses as Guide Animals for the Blind... Radio Interview

Hi gang!

At Animal Matters Radio we had alot of fun talking to Janet Burleson (The Guide Horse Foundation) www.guidehorse.org.

And as a horse person I have to say that if I ever did lose my sight I would opt for the mini wonder seeing eye horses as my partner.

Not living in NYC though, they need at least a back yard! and TGHF gives each recipient a companion mini so that the seeing eye mini has a herd friend when not on duty.

The Guide Horse Foundation operates… Continue

Cali's first visit to a restaurant

Cali made her first visit to a restaurant today. With permission of the

owners we attended the year end banquet for the local Mini Horse club.

Cali, rode in the SUV. We towed her bathroom. Which is her trailer at this

moment.She is comfortable "going" there. She goes right on cue every time I ask

her. She did need her ramp to get in to the SUV, but she jumped out. Good girl!

She found the door, stopped at the step, found the door handle (this one

She chose the trailer, the car. When asked to… Continue

We had a first lesson: Putting on the Dog Harness I got her. I'd opened the large dog harness as large as it would go.

Sigh... our perceptions are so weird. The first thing I had to do was to make it smaller at every angle. She was patient even though the wind was howling.

Next, I let her take me where she wanted to go with a little tug on the harness. She didn't… Continue
