Job 39:19-25

19 “Do you give the horse its strength or clothe its neck with a flowing mane? 20 Do you make it leap like a locust, striking terror with its proud snorting? 21 It paws fiercely, rejoicing in its strength, and charges into the fray. 22 It laughs at fear, afraid of nothing; it does not shy away from the sword. 23 The quiver rattles against its side, along with the flashing spear and lance. 24 In frenzied excitement it eats up the ground; it cannot stand still when the trumpet sounds. 25 At the blast of the trumpet it snorts, ‘Aha!’ It catches the scent of battle from afar, the shout of commanders and the battle cry.

day 23: continued

I ended up going out again today after I realized that I never did anything with the water like I had originally planed to do. I brought Reece back up to the barn so I could hose her off. I have done a little bit with this before but not much. I have only ever sprayed her feet some and ‘made it rain’ in her paddock a bit. Now that I have been working with her longer I was confident she would be more willing to deal with the water. I started by spraying her legs and kept the pressure on till the stopped then I would immediately release the pressure. It only took once on both sides till she would not move when I sprayed her legs. I then moved up her body repeating the stop and release until I could spray her on both sides and she would not move. She did not like being wet at all but she loved the rub down she got when we were done. She is now happily drying off in the sun till it is time to go in her stall for the night.
