2013 Chincoteague Pony Penning

So, as most of you know my mom left me home last week while she went on a fantastical adventure with two of my favorite ponies, Minnow and Boomerang, to Chincoteague Island for the 88th Annual Pony Penning.

They got to do amazing things like check out the wild pony round-up, swim, and auction – and they even got to perform all week at the Chincoteague Pony Centre.

My mom took some amazing pictures, so even though I wasn’t there – her photos make me feel like I was! You can check them all out HERE.

But I was most excited to hear about how my ponies did in their big performances, especially Boomerang who did an amazing job on his very FIRST debut – I’m pretty sure everyone was super impressed with the bean bag sitting skills that I taught him.

Even my special pony Minnow did an amazing job painting some beautiful pictures that were auctioned off after each show – with part of the money going to help local animal rescue groups!

The ponies will have their own recap of all their adventures on their blog soon!

And while you may think I just spent my week at home like this:

I actually had quite a few adventures of my own at home with dad! But those will have to wait for another post!

But you can check out all the fun my ponies had on their facebook page, and soon on their blogAmmo the Dachshund

One thought on “2013 Chincoteague Pony Penning

  1. Nice pictures, too bad you didn’t get to go, I know at one time you thought you get to go, but like you said, the pictures make up for it. And with all the people EVERYWHERE it may have been a good thing you stayed at home, them poor horses, no wonder they are swimming away!!!!
