4 feet in the trailer!

That's right, Day 3 of the 7 day pattern, he put all 4 feet in the trailer!!!  I was so excited, I could barely stand it.  I wanted to take a picture so bad, but I knew by the time I got everything set up, he would get back out.  But still!  He got all 4 feet in, all by himself, and even stood there and ate his grain while I walked around the trailer, reached in the windows, all that kind of stuff.  He backed himself out just fine too, which is huge, because in the other trailer I had, he wouldnt back out calmly, he would fly out so fast he would almost fall.  I'm so proud of him!  Once he got out after eating all his grain, I opened the other side of the trailer and started grooming him next to the trailer.  He was so cute about it, he kept opening the trailer door.  It would swing out, and then back, and he'd bump it again like "Hey... I just opened you, what the heck??" He must have done that about 10 times!  He even stood quietly while I picked up his hooves, cleaned them out, and applied thrush meds.  I'm so darn proud of him!  I stood there scratching his withers, and he did his little parrot lips thing, and then turned his head around and rested it on me.  I even hugged him and he kept his head there, and did a big sigh.  I wish I had been taping, I totally would have submitted it for the video call to action thing this month. :D  What a great start to my day!
