The past four or five months, Fancy has exhibited signs of, well, pretty much her namesake from the Reba song. Except for one small problem, we didn't have a male of her kind to be nice to. That problem is now solved.
Dandy is non-dominant, which is perfect. Simply put, he'll just say yes dear to anything Fancy tells him to do. Whether it's "time to go to bed, get in the stall" to "move so I can get that piece of hay" he does it. No complaint, no push back. This week, I'll let them be free with each other, but next week I'm going to start inserting myself again as the alpha. Fancy knows I am as I'm the one who tells her to go to bed, but Dandy will also need to know she's not in charge, I am.
