We also took the opportunity to give Kenzie another trailer loading lesson - this time with the ramp set to step up asking her to turn around in the float and stand on an angle. She took it all in her stride and is now pretty well ready to leave for her new home (possibly tomorrow!).

MacKenzie and the big blue box
So today Miss MacKenzie was introduced to Mr Reid (the horse trailer). It took about 2 minutes for her to decide that it looked like an interesting place to visit, lol! Tomorrow (weather willing) we will continue her lesson by repeating today's lesson and then closing the centre partition to make a single bay. If that all goes well, we will also shut the back bar but we may just focus on getting her to load and unload quietly with a few pats and rubs on her bottom to get her used to having something behind her. It sounds like her new mum will be collecting her this coming weekend, so we want her as prepared as she can be! Very proud of my baby - Temperament really is everything!
