I have nice clothes to wear. My saddle is quite pretty, and mostly comfortable. Because I'm a Friesian, though, the straps that hold the saddle on are not in the right place for the way my body is built, so the saddle will sometimes end up too far forward on me. That doesn't feel real good, and it makes it hard to move my front legs.
The other day my partner put my saddle and bridle on, and then she fastened the driving reins to me and we went for a walk. I love doing this. I get to lead, but my partner is right there helping me find the way. We walked through the woods to the house of some of my Friesian friends.
Hi, Friends! I say. They all said 'hi' back and what are you doing here and are you going to try on some new clothes too. What new clothes, I ask, and then my saddle comes off and a human man (I cannot tell if human males are stallions or geldings, so I call them all "man") with a different kind of talk starts looking at it, and saying why it doesn't fit me right. THEN comes another human, a mare this time, with a saddle, and they put it on me and fasten it up, and it feels pretty good. My partner gets on, and it still feels good. We go for a little walk, and feeling good continues. I can move my front legs, and the saddle stays where it belongs. Pretty nice!
My partner has told me we are going to look for some new clothes for me. I liked that saddle from the human man with the different talk, but we will also look around and see what else might fit good. Too bad about my old clothes, but everybody needs something new now and then.
