Who said you can’t teach an old horse new tricks?
Shetland pony Lance Corporal Septimus “Seppie” Quintus, the official mascot of the 1st Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment, has recently ventured from the gates of his stable at Lavarack Barracks to undergo some intensive battle horse training.
Seppie, about seven years old, and his handler Private Tyler Hine have been working together for about a month, and recently under the guidance of Greg Cook Horsemanship.
Yesterday Seppie performed one of his new tricks in front of more than 600 people and earned himself a Cross Rifles badge, an honour given to the best shooters in the Army.
Pte Hine said he was proud to see his four-legged comrade earn his new badge. “I think it’s awesome (he gets the same honours),” he said.
“Everyone loves him even though he’s not much of a lover, but I think that’s what everyone loves about him, he’s a bit harsh and rough around the edges.”
