It is winter and there has been something going around the barn. This has been going on for a couple of months. At first it was thought to be a change in the hay, but that has been ruled out. The ponies would have a solid poop, but said poop was preceded and finished with liquid yuck!. The liquid yuck would run down the inside of their legs and necessitated their poopy back sides be cleaned. Before my life changed with my father's hospitalization, etc. I was cleaning my ponies poopy butt 5 days a week.
I had an opportunity to ride a couple of days ago and it took my 15 minutes to clean the dark ponies nether regions. I hadn't been at the barn in 10 days. Between the rain, the need to blanket and the big Friesian tail, he was a disaster. I can't be there to keep him clean right now. So, I did the only thing reasonable - I asked my good friend and Pas De Deux partner if she would clean my ponies poopy butt syndrome. She was already feeding him apples - I was hoping she would handle the other end as well.
And as a true friend would - she said yes.
Yep, the measure of a true friend in the horse world is a friend that will clean your ponies poopy butt.
