We took blind Nikki for her first trailer ride on Friday. Nikki’s trainer, Nichole Zupan, and I loaded her up, along with Nikki’s Aunt Lena, and took them for a short drive. Then we practiced unloading, and like everything else she does, Nikki handled it with aplomb. Before I took this photo of Nikki with Nichole, Nikki had been casually standing on the ramp, just checking things out. She’s an amazing little horse. However, I think both Nikki and Lena considered this a ‘trip to nowhere’ and wondered what we were doing!
By the way, Nikki’s training is going great, and Nichole rides her during every session now.
