The plan was to put Flash out in his own field first to get settled and learn the fences (he had not been on hot wire before). When we turned him out, he was pretty chill just taking in his surroundings, looking at his neighbors and sniffing the grass. No craziness in this little baby! (Must be taking after the levelheadedness his draft friends he lived with for the first few years of his life)
Since he seemed to be okay with the fences, we went ahead and put Deuce out with him so they could get reacquainted.
Deuce promptly went up to Flash and touched noses with him then sniffed him all over. Flash just sorta stood and looked at him and said nothing. Then Deuce tried to get Flash to run with him by shoving him with his body, Flash obliged for a few steps but Deuce would not let up and Flash politely showed Deuce his heels by kicking out but not connecting to let him know he had enough. Deuce got the message and switched to a prancing head tossing around him method in hopes of getting Flash to get fired up but again, Flash was not impressed. He just stood and stared at Deuce and tried to calmly walk away. This went on for a few minuets and then Deuce finally gave up and decided Flash was not going to be a challenge to him and he would gladly follow him around.
So that was about it. As some point Flash did feel the electric fence, as I heard it zap and he sorta startled and trotted away a few steps, turned around snorted and proceeded to be careful to keep Deuce between himself and the fence.
