☀️ Summer struggles: when it’s boiling hot AND the flies have a personal vendetta against you. 🪰 Our horses have officially entered fly survival mode—which means rocking their ultra-fashionable fly masks and perfecting their dramatic head tosses every time a fly dares to get too close. Sure, it may look like they’re about to rob a bank, but in reality, they’re just trying to enjoy a peaceful walk without getting a face full of buzzing nuisances. Send thoughts, prayers, and maybe a gentle pat of sympathy next time you see them. They’re fighting battles we’ll never understand. 🐴🔥💦

Forever swooning over these cuties 💙
