Fat boy works the camera

It was a day off for Hampton since he worked his tail off last week. So I made it a spa day. Clipped him up, brushed out his tail and then made a lame attempt at a photo shoot.

I even had a plastic bag to shake thinking it would make him prance around, maybe arch his neck and look fancy.

Lady, WHAT are you doing.

No.

The good news it that the spooky, stressed out Hampton has faded away. Lazy, quiet Hampton has returned. The bad news is that lazy quiet Hampton is not much of a runway model.

The best at standing quietly while his human flails around like an idiot.

"Human there is a fly on my nose - please remove."

I've got more updates to write for sure. But his new shoes have made him a new man! No more spooking. No more tantrums! We've been working hard but both of us are happy and peaceful again. It's been fabulous!

Hi name is Hampton is this is my 4th pair of bellboots in a month!

Still standing in same place ....

Pulling the "here is my cute face now gimme carrots" look

Mane highlights. Possible 5th Backstreet Boy?

Sunbleached and a little fat, but otherwise looking good!

We've got a hunter pace coming up (yes, you read that right) ... and another show in early fall. We're sticking with Third, even though our work lately has started to include some more serious 4th level and even PSG work. The shoes and change in our program were major breakthroughs. He is so much happier and comfortable. The human is much happier as well. So good things all around! Will write up a more detailed update soon!

We're back! Hampton comes alive. bahahaha
