Went up Wednesday to practice getting Legs on the trailer with Joy and Michael, and to move him back to the farm so that it will be quicker to load him today. It was definitely a battle, he fought us so hard he even put himself on the ground once. Eventually, we ended up putting another horse on the trailer first (Maverick, a pasture mate and my new favorite of the barn) and then Legs got back on with slightly less of a fight. Then we took Maverick off and got Legs out of there! It might be what we have to do tonight to get him to Judie's, but as long as he get on I seriously don't care.
Heading up to Judie's tonight after work and leaving him there with the trailer for the week for her to work on him. Then I'll be picking him up on Friday on my way up to Foxcatcher. Hopefully at this point she will have cured him of his craziness! Definitely owe her a few weekends of labor for this one, planning on putting in that time after Biltmore when things settle down and I have a long break between races.
Sheesh.
