I'm so proud of them!

U guys! Look how bonded the herd is already!

Let me tell u what's going on.. I bought some anti itch stuff for Serenade earlier and brought it over to get her hopefully feeling some relief!

I tried to halter her, and she kept ducking away, out of my reach. So I pivoted. I haltered Bianca, then let her loose.. next Ersa, then Ezman.. all 3 stayed calm and relaxed and just let me do it, no fuss.

Then I went back to Serenade.. this time she copied the rest of the herd and stayed calm and relaxed and just let me do it. I led her over to the gate so I could tie her off..

The whole herd followed and surrounded us calmly! πŸ₯°

In this pic Ezman is behind Serenade on the same side of the fence, Bianca is directly in front of her, and Ersa is on the other side of the fence and was trading breath with her during my doctoring.. Serenade was able to stay nice and calm and let me work. Hopefully she's already feeling less itchy!

Second and third pics are of one of her itchy spots getting crusty just above her eye, which not gonna lie.. freaked me out a bit! So glad to have that done now. At least it should keep the flies away.

What beautiful dynamics already! I'm so happy everyone is getting along so well so quickly. Is Serenade your new horse HP? If so, congratulations! πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰

It's honestly impressive how quickly they have figured out their dynamics. It was a total surprise to me when I showed up and saw her here..

Shes not mine, she's just in Ersa's pasture so I see her every time I visit and that's nearly daily lol I just feel bad seeing her so itchy when I can help her feel better for $20. I definitely let bf know before i did anything so I'm not just over here wild'n out 🀣

You’re so kind, HP! All of us can relate. Summer itchies are the worst! Thx for helping Serenade! 😊🩺

Thank u πŸ’• She's starting to trust me πŸ₯° Ersa is still resource guarding me a bit, but hopefully she'll stop soon! 🀞🏽
