A New Solution to an Old Trick

A new variation on the old carrot/stick trick...

I was really trying to get a video of Ramsey's latest solution to the carrot/stick strategy...he gets both front feet on the back of the sled and pulls it to a stop.  Never underestimate a donkey's problem solving ability:) 

Walking backwards with the camera, I guess I was so slow he had no need to.

  2. Smart idea with the sled and fun seeing the donkey eating as it walks. The wind sounded tooo cold though! That was a fun way to start my day watching that video. Thanks!

  3. Never underestimate how smart they are! I had Siera out yesterday for a wee hike. The snow was SO deep! We didn't go very far.

  4. I saw a post on Facebook yesterday; photo of donkey with caption "Stubborn? You mean smarter than your training skills." Very appropriate in my opinion :)
