Since Izzy popped the giant ball, I've gone back to using feed bags as toys. He tears them up pretty quickly, and they're really only interesting for a few hours, but at least they're free. He does make a bit of a mess with them, but so far, he hasn't eaten the pieces or hurt himself with the bags. My trainer's daughter, Morgan, tagged me when she shared this Facebook picture. Her comment was this: It's Izzy! She sure has him pegged.  It really is Izzy! (Facebook photo) Another Someday ...
Someday Izzy will be quieter in his stall without the need to play (and destroy) every moment of the day.

Well, at least the feed bags last a few hours and are free... there just aren't many horse-safe toys out there! 11/6/2015 05:47:28 pm
Oh yeah ... Speedy hates anything that makes plastic noise. He would be HORRIFIED if I put any of those toys in his stall.

I have thought about that, but it would have to be smaller than the standard 50 gallon thing, but I think I am going to look around. Comments are closed.

I began endurance riding in 1996 where I ultimately completed five, one-day 100 mile races, the 200-mile Death Valley Encounter, and numerous other 50, 65, and 75 mile races. I began showing dressage in 2010. Welcome to my dressage journey.
