Absorbine Photo Challenge: 8 Cases of Equine Destruction
Repeat after me … we love our horses, we love our horses, we love our horses …
… even when they try to self-destruct and take out everything and everyone around them. For this week’s photo challenge, we called for photos of things that your horse destroyed. From barns to boards to boots to everything in between, here are 8 photos taken in the wake of your equine destruction.
Our randomly-selected winner of this week’s Absorbine prize package is Kristen Kovatch (not to be confused with our managing editor Kristen Kovatch!)
Kristen Kovatch: This was the fence after my horse went the wrong way and got stuck. Instead of backing out, he just dove through it.
Megan Stout: “It was just a little wind that caused this limb to fall on our new Centaur fence”
Courtney Due: “Not only did I have to repair the fence, I had to first dismantle the rest of it to extract the horse. (That look of shame, though….)”
Christy Castle: “Obviously it’s a personal gate. Because 2 gates isn’t enough”
Stacey Buhler Hess: “My horse was feeling a little excited leaving me in the dirt and being life flighted. Once recovered, discovered the paramedics cut my practice boots off so we did a little TLC so I can still use them for practice haha”
Natalie Leighton: “We had to use bailing twine and a fence panel “borrowed” from our arena to secure his paddock after he demolished the fence in a thunderstorm.”
Jennifer Dietrich Enderle: “$4700.00 worth of damage to an Audi A4. Trunk, side, sunroof, hood all Christmas morning in less than 1 hour of being turned out!”
Keep an eye out for next week’s Absorbine photo challenge! We announce challenge subjects on Tuesday around the middle of the day on both Instagram and Facebook.
Go riding!
