Smokey, the amazing escape artist, has done it again... He was in for a week while I fixed fence and got the zapper stronger. Came home this afternoon, and he was at the neighbor's house mowing the lawn. Thank God the neighbor is in Maryland until December 2nd. So, he's back in the stall with access to the other horses, but not in the electric fence. Sigh. Back to the drawing board. I'm going out to clean stalls later so will hook him out on a long lead rope. Little bugger. Going to have to figure this one out sooner rather than later. He had been running up the road at night so don't even want to think about letting him out after dark.
Sigh. Nothing better to do with my time than try and corral a little pony who can scoot under the fencing. And his hair is long enough to make the zap seem not so bad. You would think with a 20 acre steer fencer on 2 acres of land that it would encourage him to stay in, but I guess not.
Off to the barn I go - again...
