When Happy the quarter-horse decided she hadn91裸聊视频檛 had enough attention from a human visitor, she decided to bring the attention to herself91裸聊视频攂y walking into her owner91裸聊视频檚 Great Central Lake living room and demanding it.
Happy, just three months old, only joined the Galloway family of Port Alberni a couple of months ago, from a farm in Manitoba. Rather than acting like a typical horse, Happy is more like a lapdog91裸聊视频攁 300-pound lapdog, says owner Terry Galloway.
A friend of the family had given Happy a pat in the backyard when she realized she had forgotten something in the house. 91裸聊视频淢y friend walked in the house, up the stairs, down the hall and into the living room, and the horse did too,91裸聊视频� Galloway said.
91裸聊视频淚t took Happy less than three seconds to get up those (seven) stairs.91裸聊视频�
Galloway didn91裸聊视频檛 know what to do about the horse standing in the middle of her living room, so she called 911.
91裸聊视频淭he dispatcher said is the horse panicked and I said the horse is having a nap. She91裸聊视频檚 standing right where she came up.
91裸聊视频淚t was hilarious in a way, but so scary.91裸聊视频�
The rescue was one of a kind for Sproat Lake Volunteer Fire Dept. firefighter Dallas Cann and her colleagues too.
91裸聊视频淚t was a fairly unique situation for us to be paged out on,91裸聊视频� said Cann, who is also a farrier91裸聊视频攕omeone who trims horses91裸聊视频� hooves and fits them for horseshoes.
Cann is off work at the moment with a broken leg, and isn91裸聊视频檛 able to go out on fire calls. However, SLVFD duty officer Chris Wynans called her when he heard there was a horse involved and asked if she could at least tag along. She was one of four firefighters who headed out to Galloway91裸聊视频檚 place.
91裸聊视频淣one of the other people in that hall, or even the whole fire department have experience with horses,91裸聊视频� she explained.
The challenge once they got to the house was how to get Happy back down the stairs and out of the house. Horses can handle obstacles like stairs, Cann said, if they aren91裸聊视频檛 panicked.
Firefighters along with the help of Mike Hobson, an experienced horse handler, wrapped a rope around the front of the horse in case she needed assistance. 91裸聊视频淪he made it down by herself,91裸聊视频� Cann said.
