Something other than canine...

Just for a change.
Just a pic.
NOT of a dog...
Just a pony.
Not just any pony though...
Rob (the Ratbag) Roy.

Playing docile during recent wet weather indoor pony club activities.
Butter wouldn't melt in his bloomin' mouth, would it?
Heh.
(For those not up to speed on his shenanigans, click here and here.
He has his good days of course - like here.)
...
Have a great weekend everyone!
And thanks for sharing my excitement for this photo.
You lot rock...

Rob the Ratbag Roy. His name's gotten noticeably longer since you brought him home.

What a gorgeous shot! He's a beautiful Ratbag Roy!

(oh & congrat's on your dog photo on PW!)

Carla said...

BB, since I haven't been with your blog very long----do I detect that Roy isn't the quietest, calmest horse you have? You said he was "playing docile".

Congrats on the PW win!

I'd hug him in a minute.

For those wondering about Rob Roy's extended moniker, I have added a couple of explanatory links!

Great photos BB, I need to stop down under more often. My first was also a Shetland with a attitude, and I was a few years older then your tribe. Your kids are doing great, a reflection of their parents.

Oh the little poddy. *sniffle*

Thanks for the Rob Roy background bits.

When I had a horse, my trainer had a theory about Shetland ponies and their antics. She believed that Shetlands aren't all inherently naughty. Most are so small, that grown-ups don't ride them/teach them any more than needed to get them started. They then let children loose on them, who let them get away with all sorts of naughtiness because they don't know any better. It looks like you and Mr. Incredible have RR well under supervision. He and Violet will be a pair to be dealt with in horse shows, yet.

Rob Roy - that plaited forelock might pretty you up, but I can see you're still a firey redhead!
Contemplating your next move I think.
(Great shot BB - one of my new faves I think)

Jayne said...

You almost sell him as a perfect wee gentleman with this shot, BB LOL.
