Finally Got Our Coffee!

Monday morning we got up bright and early and head toward Watonga Oklahoma. Our destination for getting Coffee. In case you have missed the last several post Coffee is our filly out of my good red dun mare Fire My Jets and by my buckskin stallion Dun Encountered That!

When we got there to get Coffee it only took a total of 10 mins and she was in the trailer. I got in the trailer with her and put the halter on her. She was such a good girl.

On the way back we had to make a detour to drop my brother off in Mountain View, and of course show off our Coffee! She loved all the attention and wasn't bothered a bit by all the hands on her.

We left Mountain View and headed for Waurika! We drove through some serious rain and wind. When we got home, we put Coffee in the round pen to relax for a minute. Then into her stall. As we where doing that it started to down pour and lighting very severe. So playing with Coffee was put off for a day.

Yesterday, the sun was shinning and it was beautiful with the exception of the mini lake on my property.

The girls couldn't stand it anymore, they wanted to mess with Coffee, so we waded through the mini lake to higher ground and fetched Coffee from her stall. They had a blast together and she behaved perfectly.

This is only her first full day of weaning from her dam and she is fully halter broke, will lead like a dream and trot beside you when asked!

Porsha making sure Mercedees is doing it right!

I love that this filly has her dam's attitude! I worked her for just a min in the round pen today to kind of give her the ideal of what is supposed to be going on, she picked up on it real quick. Oh and just on a side note, this filly had not had a halter on her since she was just a few weeks old. She was not halter broke when we put her in the trailer. That's how quick a learner this filly is and how willing she is TO learn.

Have a great day!
