Do you think Josie hates ponies?
What do all little girls want their Daddy to buy them??? If you guessed a pony, you would be correct. However, in Josie's case that is just the opposite. Josie we have learned is deadly afraid of ponies. Why, we do not know. We can take her up to them and pet them to show her everything is ok and all she does is cling to you, try to get away, or cry. She is not just afraid of ponies, but donkeys also. Anything that looks like a pony she does not like them. This became noticeable when we took our trip to the zoo and she proved to us she did not like them. Then we went to weeny roast and again showed us she did not like ponies. When we went to the Firehouse, I thought Josie would do fine riding on a pony since she is little and will not actually be touching the pony. Since the saddles are so large and she could see Jakob being a big boy riding on them, but I guess I was wrong. Here are a few of the photos Brent took when we attempted to have Josie go on her very first pony ride. Well, we did not go on the ride. We did not even make it fully on the saddle.
Look in the background at Josie as I tried to sit her down on the saddle.
I could not get her off the saddle fast enough. Even when I would pet the pony to show her it was ok.
