Sometimes when Mum goes out to visit her horsie Rocky, she takes me too, and we go for a ride ‘out the back’.
There’s a biiiiig big paddock out the back of where Rocky lives. It’s full of lush green grass and all sorts of exciting things to explore! Oh, and there’s cows! The cows are pretty curious mostly, they like to follow us. Sometimes they’re really interested in me, I think cos they think I’m one of their babies! I don’t think cows are very bright.
Mum likes riding out the back in the late afternoon when the light is really pretty. She keeps going on about doing a photo shoot out there one day, but it’s kinda hard using a big camera and riding a horse at the same time! So she usually just takes photos with her little camera.
There’s a really cool dam out the back. Sometimes I’m allowed to swim in it, but sometimes it can be pretty muddy and smelly cos the cows use it.
When we get back to the horsey place, I know where I’m going and run off ahead.
Hanging out with Rocky is fun, he’s pretty cool, he’s used to me now! I love being a country dog!
