Actually my ankle is fine, my knee is all swollen and such. ;)
I hope Sugar will like the massage skills. See, the odd thing she does is that she hates being groomed around her tummy area. And the vet swears there is nothing wrong. I don't know if its pain or if she's just ticklish, so I am hoping that these massaging techniques will help me find the various spots on her body that she reacts to. Surely I can find something she loves that will calm her down. The other day I was playing and massaging in my own style at the top of her tail and she loved it. Nearly fell asleep and stopped fidgeting. So I am pretty sure she'll like that.
Oh, durr. I misread the ankle/knee thing. So lemme revise. *pets and rubs her poor sore knee* Maybe Sugar will relax a bit more with the massage, and maybe that will make it easier for you to groom her tummy. Cause she loves her mommy, doesn't she? :) And yep - so do I.
Ooooooooo!! Hilda is my dressage hero!! She doesn't give a crap what breed your horse is and will judge you 100% fairly, weather your' little Suzy on her backyard pony or George Williams on Rocher (btw, drool- a must see combination of horse/rider). I've seen her get out of the judges box to talk to a rider and could care less if it puts her behind and I've seen her warn riders to avoid certain areas of the arena if they are crap without haveing to worry about points being deducted (case and point when she told Lauren to not go anywhere near the corners at the top of the arena at Regionals in 2002 as they were slick and dangerous- gave Hen a 72% that test

Yeah, thats what I never liked about Parelli is that he was so much more of a salesman than a teacher. All his clinics that I've seen and his tv show are about telling you what he can teach you, if you buy his products, not actually teaching you
