I went to the beach with Erica and Katie yesterday. We had a bumble along the sand, but Copper was thinking otherwise! Tried a nice canter at the end, which turned into Penny galloping when she wanted - sharp truns towards the sea soon stopped that behaviour!
I then took Purdy out of the car to see what she was like with the horses and off the lead. We have been told that she would dissapear once off the lead. She was an angel, I don't know if it was because of the horses, but I had Penny on one side in hand, and Purdy trying to grab her lead from the other - it was so funny. She then took to walking right behind me, as if to make sure that the HUGE dog I was also holding didn't attack!
Hopefully I can work with them both so that I can go out for hacks in the plantations, on the beach etc with the two of them.
I hope other have done work towards getting horse and dog together, but has anyone else done this with their pooch, any tips?
