Pseudo Intelligence



So far the posts have been dedicated to the hilarious things Moon does in his adventures into the world of a real riding horse. Today’s post is too, however someone has a new theory on the mind of Moon....

About a week ago, when spring was really trying to spring, Moon was tied up on the yard waiting for the mess he has made in his stable e.g. pulling his swimming pool of a water bucket over and finding the deepest part of the banks and then digging down to the concrete, to be tidied up before he goes in the field for the night. Deep in a stable tiding up after my boy I hear a strange noise and rush back out to make sure no one is stuck or is eating anything they shouldn’t and spy Moon holding the handle of the plastic curry comb in his mouth and 'brushing' the floor, not just in any way, methodically up and down, up and down. Apart from drooling on the brush a bit and getting it a bit dirty he did no harm whatsoever, carefully 'brushing the floor'.

After being informed of his activities a non-horsy friend exclaimed that he was clearly very clever and had seen us use the curry comb to brush him and seen us brush the floor made the connection in his mind and tried t out for himself. In fact "he is like those chickens in chicken run!" So apparently my horse has a secret flying machine hidden somewhere in a corner of my small yard I never visit. .

Maybe he wouldn’t need a flying machine if he worked out how his legs can propel himself of the floor!
