I walked into her stall with my parka hood up and she almost kicked my ass. I took my hood off and she calmed immediately and made a happy noise at me.

A good reminder that horses are unpredictable no matter how well you know them or how much training you put into them. The weirdest shit can set them off.

Thanks for continuing to post pictures of Sandy. They've frequently been a happy escape from all the negativity online and IRL, particularly today. I don't get to be around horses except every 5 years or so and seeing the range of emotions and behaviours you capture in Sandy is fun for me.
