Sleeping beauty

It's been dry out lately, so Riley gets to go out at night on a "sleepover" with Harv. He comes in and drops like a stone for a few hours. Grazing, it seems, is hard work!

  1. My Chance likes to nap too.

    Riley looks too cute for words. It's always nice when your horse feels safe and confident enough to lie down...and better yet when he'll pose for a picture that way. Trust abounds.....

  2. He's so sweet looking - and from your blogs, I'm thinking looks don't deceive. :)

    My horse seems to love when I catch him sleeping, because it makes it so I can reach to scratch all the good itchy spots, behind his ears and along his poll, etc. He gets very vocal in his groans of pleasure and cracks me up.

  3. Hee! I love seeing the bits of bedding in his ears. You know they've slept well when. . . .

  5. Hey, look at how Riley's front hoof is on his chest? Do you think that Harv could be doing the same thing, but it's aggravating his chest?

  6. Too cute! My horse rarely lays down, at least not that I've seen him. He's turned out 24/7, during the day he's on pasture and at night in a large paddock. Unfortunately his paddock gets really muddy if there's any rain. I know he lays down & rolls though so I'm not too concerned. :)
