BONNIE

Bonnie

Hi, my name is Bonnie and I am 7 years old. I came here in May 2018 with Levi. When the humans came to see me I was very angry. I was hungry, frightened that I would be hit and had been stuck in a small, dark stall that I couldn't turn around in. When they brought me out I kicked the lady and tried to bite them. They took me home anyway! When I first arrived I didn't like Levi much. I thought he would steal my food and I was so hungry. After a while though, I realised that it was okay and there was plenty for both of us so I was happy to share with him. I spent a lot of time with my new mum and learned that scratches are the best thing ever. I am trying very hard to learn lots of other things. I still worry about picking my feet up and I don't really like new people touching me so I sometimes warn them away, lots of things scare me but mum says that I am one of the bravest horses here because I like to investigate the scary things. She is showing me lots of new things with something called clicker training, which just means that she explains to me how to do something, and then gives me treats! I love it! I am usually the first to meet the new horses and help them settle in. I am quite bossy but not mean to them, I am happy to share my food and show them how to ask for scratches!
