Thursday Aug. 4th and Friday Aug. 5th

We had a great end to the week at Hoofbeat!

On Thursday everyone got to try riding bareback. It was a good way to practice balancing.

Everyone also got to take a trail ride, and it was fun to try something different than riding in the riding.

Holly and Nina teach a horse science lesson outside the barn.
Our special guest on Thursday was an Australian Shepard pup named Lexie.



Thursday was also tie-dye day and the shirts looked great!

On Friday we took an afternoon trip to Peck's near Arena, WI.

At Peck's we got to take a wagon ride pulled by two draft horses-Dolly and Molly.


Peck's also had a train ride.


The train ride took us all around Peck's and we got to see all their different animals.

Peck's had lots of birds, and even an emu!



Everyone got corn they could use to feed the animals-included goats, pigs, a calf, deer, a donkey and many others.

The baby goats were so cute!

The bounce house was a hit too.



Thanks for a great small animal week everyone!
