So it might not have been the best idea to get on Lucky after a 6 week vacation with a brand new bit, but lucky for me, it worked out. When I first started with her I tried a normal loosing ring snaffle with a key. She hated it. So I tried just a loose [...]

Gen still has Kankles

Thank you Kristen for the best word ever to describe what is going on (I am going to ignore the need for calfs to be present in order to use the word) Gen is still not bothered by it at all so I will give it another day to heal up on its own. If [...]

So I stopped in to see Gen today before heading up to see Lucky. What I found was that all of his legs were a little puffy. The left hind was the worst, hence the photo of that one. As you can see, it is not crazy puffy, just enough for me to wonder about [...]

If you guessed that it was six weeks from Lucky’s tendonitis flair up you would be correct!!!!! That means that I get to start riding and rehabbing her! YAY! I am so excited. Lucky’s Owner generously offered to let me ride some of the other horses at the barn while she was hurt, but for [...]

why I was so scared about loosing Gen when he fell on Friday. Gen means so much to me. Not only is he my first and potentially only horse, but he is also my once in a lifetime horse. Some people ride their whole lives and never find the horse that is perfect for them. [...]

So why on earth am I home alone on a Friday night at 9pm. Because I had a very scary moment with Gen today… So I got to the barn today a little bit later than usual…so I knew I had to rush. It was after the normal bring in time, but not by a [...]
