I swear it rained all month. It's relatively warm here so I am dealing with lots of red clay mud. It is so depressing.

Baby Girl is training at the track and just had her first "turn and work" and beat the two colts she was working with. If she wins money yeah, if not she comes home to be a pleasure pony yeah! Win win for me. Theses pics were taken ( Read more... )

I got the saddle I purchased from dappled_dreams! It is exactly as how it was advertised! Totally perfect for restarting horses and letting my lesson kids abuse it! Yippie! I have made my final decision regarding breeding Jello this spring! I will take her to a friesian named Berend aka Baron! He can be seen at chooseyourgaitbreeding.com

I think I shall expand my journaling. Besides horses I also have four dogs, eight hens, a cat and a pig.

I have my corgi, Belle, my lab cross, Calcifer, and two Treeing Walker Coonhounds, Easy and Lil Joe. The cat is Taffy the mighty huntress. She killed her first mouse at the tender age of fourteen weeks! The hens are unamed.

Jello got all her shots today. Turns out that my vet used to work at Granada Farms, which is where I'm taking Jello to be bred! It's a small world!

Today I taught one of the older girls, she is 13. She rode Daisy! Yup the number one lesson pony is back in the program! She was an angel, the only problem was when the kid went to catch her. Daisy wouldn't be caught. I had to go get her, but considering Daisy's history it wasn't a big deal. To be fair to Daisy, she let me walk right up to her and ( Read more... )

Daisy is healing up good. I removed her stitched myself, a first for me! After two plus weeks of stall rest she was totally ready to go back out with her buds! I gave her another couple of weeks off. Rode her today to see how she felt and she was perfectly normal! Just a little herd bound, but she worked through it!
Lessons have slowed down a lot, ( Read more... )
