Well, I decided to listen to what Wally had said on my previous post about loading/travelling the boys to livery :dance:
I held Archie whilst friend loaded Rocky - he really just loads himself so I knew they'd be ok, I remembered what Wally said and walked to the ramp with a "can do" attitude - Archie wasnt keen but with a few "come on boy, lets go" we had front feet on the ramp which were shortly followed by him walking in with me and letting me tie him up whilst hubby put the bar up and shut the ramp, I made a quick exit out the jockey door and off we went:biggrin:
Only three miles down the road to their temp home for the next couple of months - Archie was a bit wild eyed when I went to unload him - backed hime out like I said I would and he was fine
Rocky didnt want to leave his hay net but eventually unloaded and we walked them into their field - heads down to eat ...
Am really really pleased with how it all went today:biggrin:
