So every 6 weeks or so I have my trainer video a few minutes of my lesson. I don’t bring my camera to every lesson, but when I do I want to use it regardless of how good or bad my lesson is. I have yet to time having the camera on a great day, [...]

Sorry Gen, No ink for you
Posted in Horse, tagged Horse, horses on November 23, 2010 | 5 Comments »
My horse was very sad to hear about this story. My pony loves that he is inked. Even at almost 19 years old his lip tattoo is still clear as day. I must say that I do think it is rather odd that the courts ruled that it is cruel to tattoo a horse when [...]
If I am happy with bootlessness, Gen is thrilled

Look at that peaceful pony. Two days in to his new bootless life Gen is being fantastic. He has been MUCH more careful then normal. Yes, he is still rolling, and yes, I have seen him canter a bit, but for the most part he has been really good. Normally when I get to the [...]

Today was the big day! I, of course, got no sleep last night and have been worried for days now, but I am happy to report that Gen is doing well. Here is a picture of Gen from this morning. I stopped in on the way to my lesson to check in on him. I [...]
One of the best gifts I have, or will ever receive…

So I just left the barn. It is late and it has been a long day but I wanted to share a quick story. The lights were off when I went in to the barn. I could only see shadows, but I could hear the horses munching on their hay. I love that feeling of [...]

The big day is only a few days away…

So today when I took off Gen’s wraps I knew that the big day close at hand. His leg looked FANTASTIC. It was nice and tight with no heat or swelling. I, of course, am absolutely panicked about turning Gen out without wraps or boots on. It has been over 3 and a half years! [...]

So it is the time of year to renew memberships, and I am VERY happy to not be renewing my USEF membership for the 2011 show year. I am not planning on doing any recognized shows this year, and while some organizations I will pay dues for no matter what, I do not feel that [...]
