Hi
Did lots of construction style work this summer, great for fitness not so great for riding. Had to really push myself to ride after a day of work, even on the weekends had to push. The consistent riding helped my relationship with both horses, Tessa and BabyDoll. We put in lots of arena time (okay so it was raining so often, about the only place to ride out of the rain was in the arena :-), the positive side of the arena time is it helped Tessa remember that turning a barrel is important. It helped BabyDoll really get the basics down, so the few trail rides we went on where much calmer nicer affairs. More later.
About Me
- Michelle
- Colorado, United States
- Been working with horses for a few years. As a teenager I was very luck to have a wonderful all around instructor that helped me see the need for an all around balanced horse. I enjoying training horses from the ground up. My emphasis starts in the arena, I find many horses benefit from some basic dressage and confidence building in the arena, then move to the trail, where they seem to enjoy getting out and about. My funnest challenge so far has been putting a 3 yr old proven breeding stallion under saddle.
