Title: [Report] Equine Care
Post by: Amelia Cane on August 02, 2007, 09:43:29 pm
Horse Husbandry Class

When: Wednesday 1st August
Where: Outside the Barracks

Commanding Officer: Zoie Hayden, Dragoon Officer Cadet

In attendance:
- Hoagie, Dragoon Sergeant
- Eve, Grenadier Officer Cadet
- Ihiniar Tel'var, Watchman
- Sean Greyson, Watchman
- Amelia Cane, Guardsman Recruit
- Kal Shadowhand, Church Servant

We gathered with excitement outside the Barracks, mentally choosing our horses as Zoie Hayden explained why we were there.  We were to be taken through all aspects of caring for a horse.  But first we were each presented with a steed of our own to look after for the duration of the training.

We started by learning about the types of food we should be giving our horses, and we also prepared some water for them to drink in barrels.  Not long after all the dining did our horses show us the result; and a quick lesson in 'mucking out' followed.   This wasn't the most enjoyable aspect of the training.

We all took pleasure in making our horses look their best, with a comprehensive grooming session.

The horses were very well behaved (in fact better than some Covian Guardsmen I have met) and allowed us to complete our training.  Zoie was pleased with the results I think.  Maybe she was secretly picking out her next Dragoon hopefuls!
