I thought I would be posting photos of Cedric (aka Battlestations) starting his bus man's holiday with me at Bankfield. Sadly, while he loaded sensibly, he would not stand for a second on the trailer, running out backwards and rearing the second that he had head room.
After a couple of near misses, we decided to regroup and transport him with the wagon next week. As much as I hate them "getting away with it", it was not worth the risk to him or us.
Although I have worked with him for over 12 years and still have quite a strong bond with him, he hasn't had the time or groundwork over the last few years. It just shows that, as with most relationships, you need to keep working and reinforcing the bond, you cannot take it for granted if you don't put the effort in.
Not to worry, bootcamp starts next Sunday now. Give me a day and he will be begging to be left alone on that trailer!
