My girl has been awfully excited lately about the arrival of what she claimed were gifts for me. Naturally I assumed the gifts would be edible, or some sort of attractive hat that I could wear to impress all of my associates. Well the day finally came, and my girl arrived with a freshly opened box and a smile of questionable intent. Impress my associates? HA!

 

 

Who am I going to impress with waterbottle shoulder-pads? I mean really, sometimes a horse just has to put his hoof down. Repeatedly. She also got me a new cantlebag, which has even more waterbottles! I’m about one farmer’s tan away from having a Big Gulp full of Mountain Dew strapped to my withers.

… Still, upon closer look at the drink holster breast collar, the rest of it is pretty nice. The leather and the hardware are of nice quality, and I suppose it’s true that my coat is so slick and shiny that sometimes my saddle slips back. There are some downsides to beauty. Do you really think that I get away with being this handsome without any repercussions?

 

 

Chest shot! I’ll see how long I can have this picture online before it attracts so much web traffic that I have to pull it down.

 

 

  • P.S. The waterbottle Aussie breast collar can be found here!

    Nice new wardrobe elements – they do complement your fine coat in the chesty shot ;) Super cool how you’re sticking your tongue out in the second picture there – you are a clever horse Eagle.

    Happy to be entered in any kind of contest, but a carrot contest is even better. Thanks for stopping by my blog – glad we found each other. Is there a way to follow you? I can’t always find that function on non-blogger blogs.

      Thank you. I have another trick where I pin my ears whenever my girl lifts her camera to her eye. It’s hilarious!

      I will have to research following options for WordPress. I believe that there is a way to follow on google? I do not know how that works yet though. Blogger is certainly more convenient in the sense of keeping in touch with barn buddies.

    I miss making ugly faces with you like we did when we were camping. Next time we get together I’ll teach you my mouth noise. People love it! I know when I do it Lorie can’t stop talking about it. She loves it that much.

    LOL! Mountain Dew! Dude – you should try Coke instead. Like, I’m going to try to get my girl to buy a Coke bottle to hang with my iPod when I take her around the arena.
