Great job!!!!

Ouch that hurt!

Cody had his wolf teeth removed on Friday. Not a very pretty site. Poor guy! He was sedated however he started to come out of it before the vet could finish the job so the vet had to give him some more juice. All and all he was a great little guy. Lucky Cody....he know gets a couple weeks of R&R before I can put a bit in his mouth.

I am also very excited because I just ordered two rope halter/bridle combos. One for Cheyenne and one for Cody. They are going to look awesome! I will put a photo up once I receive them in the mail. They are coming for the States.

Bad, Bad Cody

So Cody just returned from boot camp. He was gone a month. Today I decided that I would longe him in the round pen. I figured I would be nice and give him some time off given that he just had 5 weeks of intensive training and the fact that his wolf teeth are really bothering him. So I get him in the pen and the minute I attach a longe line of him he starts circling around me and in two seconds he is in a full out gallop. I literally had only time to attach the longe line under his chin and off he goes with me running behind him...NOT BY CHOICE!!!! After I finally let go of the rope, both hands were serverely and completely rope burnt that they are in a permanent bent position for the time being. This is not what I call fun!

Let's just say that I am really mad at him and I am kicking myself in the butt for not having my gloves on!!! I hope this doesn't become a habit!!!!!
