A friend rode my horse Blessi yesterday. She and another friend went to a local multi-use park. They walked the horses the mile and 1/2 since cars and trucks go way too fast on the road to the park.
Today, I asked how Blessi was on the ride. She said Blessi did well with the baby carriage, the other horse that acted up, the peacock, etc. Well the peacock comment went right over my head. The stable is out in the country with forest, suburban houses, and some horse ranches. I thought the lady might have been joking--yeah and we saw a blue elephant on the way to the park. Well, I drove my dog to the same park today. About 1/2 mile from the park guess what was standing about 1 foot into the road--a male peacock in all his glory. I am tempted to lead Blessi back along the road tomorrow just to take the opportunity to further desensitize to a peacock. Although with my luck, I'll get attacked by the peacock who will object to this exercise. Just had to share... Regards, Pamela
