WOOHOO!!!

Nov 23, 2008

WOOHOO!!! That about describes our day today. I attribute this to Kwinn’s feeling better. While he’s filled out and is generally looking better, you can see in his eyes that he’s feeling better. We had a good time riding today. Kwinn behaved well even when the mares in the field started galloping across the field.…

Outflankem – A Gentleman with an Easy Manner

Dec 2, 2008

The weather here has really put a damper on things. It seems every day we either have rain, snow, or gale force winds. The only days we get a break, I have to work! My daughter decided she did not like the name “Ronnie” and informed us she had changed Outflankem’s name to “Bailey”. I…

We received the papers on Moose. Impressive. I wanted to know his birthdate and now I know. Thanks for giving the trainer’s son our number so he can see Moose when his family comes down in April. We are cold here but Moose has a thick winter coat and a blanket.

Starting Stiff as a Rod

Jul 13, 2011

Am thinking also to keep the mounted “work” to a couple of times a week for now and focus on continuing to loosen her and get her shifted and “right” in her work–loose flexible and relaxed with just enuf saddle work to make sure she continues to feel comfortable with it. Does any of this sound right to you guys? and any other suggestions? I am giving her back and haunches good deep rubs whether we have worked or not to try and make sure she stays muscularly as loose as I can….funny—was massaging her poll and upper neck the other day—she started yawning over and over and twisted her neck around to me some much she practically turned herself inside out…lol. Was the funniest goofiest thing, she was practically looking up at the ceiling.
