When someone interested in buying your horse asks if they can have video proof of whether it is good with children
Pumba working in extreme circumstances…
Ok guys, the joys of selling horses. I keep being asked if this horse is "good with children" the last person asked for "a video" ??? So I have checked just incase I had accidentally advertised her in the "nannies looking for work" section. I haven't. Anyway, today Nouveau Heights, aka Pumba humoured us…. no children or horses were harmed in the making of this video… surprisingly…
