Almost WW: Weekday Ride

This is his boredom behavior.  He opens his mouth just a bit, flings his head in short quick strokes, and lets his lips flap around.  Honestly, I could care less as long as he has all 4 feet on the ground, so I let him self-entertain.

Val does the lip flip too - mainly when cross tie activities surpass his attention span. He can really get some momentum going lol. I wonder if our clever boys are releasing endorphins?

Majestic giraffe... Haha

Connor IS a majestic giraffe :)

It's possible, I hadn't thought of that! Connor does it when he thinks he's stood in one place too long (clipping, tacking up).

He is looking rather regal and giraffe-like, am I right?

Simon's boredom/nervous behavior is chewing on the side of his tongue. It's delightful.

I kind of think it's cute when they do the lip flappy stuff!

He's always adorable whether imitating a giraffe or a warmblood. :)

Pig does this! In fact, I watched a whole lot of racehorses do that last weekend at Keeneland...
