Preparing Peppy

Peppy is now officially entered in two shows- open shows hosted by local fairs. Today I trimmed his ear hairs- with scissors; he didn't mind that too much, I don't want to battle with him trying to clip them, though he is allowing me to clip his nose and bridle path. I am really looking forward to these shows; I'm so proud of this colt because he's so smart and does whatever I ask of him with minimal or no fuss. I can't wait to see how he handles the crowds and commotion of showing. I will try to make sure it is a positive experience for him. He loves attention (just like his daddy!) and is sure to get his share of it- he is quite eye catching. Hopefully he won't take the opportunity to practice airs above the ground!
