Title: My horse drownding
Post by: madie on August 03, 2008, 06:21:37 PM
Me and my dad like to ride our horses in the pond, so I wanted to go through the deep part. Well, we had her rearing up strap on her, so when we went in the deep part it was hard for her not to have her head. So next thing I know  she has her ears penned back and her nose closed, she would go to the very bottom (which is really deep I know my dad built it) and push off the ground so she could get a breath! I looked down and I felt her body go limp, I pulled on her rains to get her back up. She came back up and I jumped off so she could swim. I had boots on (the kind you wear when it rains) Which made it hard to swim. I almost drown but luckily we have cattails so I grabbed on to those and pulled myself out of the water. Crazy got out and ran back to the barn, my dad ran after her to make sure she was going to the barn. She is fine but ever since then me and her have never gone into the pond again. That scared me halve to death.
