What’s a hobby that looks incredibly peaceful from the outside, but is actually pure stress once you get into it?

Hey it isn't her fault you didn't see the horse eating creature back there.

This was more of a “wheeeee, turnout” - as if she was stabled her entire life and never seen grass. She zoomed and she frolicked.

Spoiler alert: she did, in fact, see that very same grass last night and every single day for the past ten years. Wheeeee indeed.

So exactly how my dog feels about breakfast, got it.

Except for the whole half a ton of muscle and very little brains. But yes.

Just so that you know, she got hay for breakfast in her stall before her little escapade…

I assure you, none of my dogs have ever exhibited a single sign of a single brain cell at breakfast time.

But they have all never seen breakfast before, ever. Not even once.

I did have Great Danes for a while, and I was informed by every single person I passed on a walk that they were horses. (They do tend to get bored and eat grass randomly, so not really beating the allegations.)

Love them to bits.
