“Moose” is the Popular One at his New Home
I wanted to give you an update on “Moose” (Popular One). He is the love of my husband’s life! (next to me, I hope)! My husband, Nick, has never been around horses before. He has been taught how to halter and lead horses and is the one who brings “Moose” in from the pasture at…
Bubba and I Met the Tooth Fairy and Her Name is Elizabeth!
Just wanted to send a quick note to thank the “Tooth Fairy” for yanking out Bubba’s second baby tooth in two weeks. Bubs is about four and a half and his physical stature is like that of a teenager. He’s growing up right in front of me – what’s next? shaving? Thanks Elizabeth! You can…
Titania Has a New Mom!
UPDATE November 2009: Titania aka “Titanium” aka “Ana” was sold to by her owner Michelle Stupey to Julie.
Schooling Shows and New Digs for Cadence
In December we competed in a schooling show, which was very good. We made our First level debut with scores in the 60’s. In March, we rode in another show. We rode Training Four and First One and Two. Scores were not the greatest because we were having an off day.
Sunny is BIG!
Sunny, now known as “Mr. Big (Big for short 🙂 ” due to how handsome he is and how confident he is in himself, haha, is doing really well!! I LOVE this horse, I bought him as a re-sale project but he has so much potential that it looks like I will probably end up…
OTTB Outflankem aka “Ronnie” Changes Careers
The shipper arrived three hours early, and good thing because we had a heck of storm up here during the time he was supposed to get here! “Outflankem” got off the trailer like a pro, and stood like a perfect gentleman. He was in a brand new place, with the wind whipping, and he could’ve…
Mr. Mully Trains Exceptionally Well at Recent Clinic
Recently Mully and I attended an Eric Smiley three-day clinic. We prepared well for the clinic and I was really excited to ride with Eric once again. He comes every year and if we’re lucky he comes twice. This was only Mully’s second clinic and having a really rough road to recovery from complicated splint…
Muchu Cold, Muchu Good
Muchu (aka “Shu”) and Patrick have settled in together beyond my wildest dreams. At this point in time “Shu” has been off the track only 8 months and my son has only been riding the same 8 months, yet they are seamless in their bond. There have been periods when the girls have not been able to go out for a week at a time due to weather, and despite pent up energy, “Shu” always takes care of him the minute he puts his foot in the stirrup.
Little Silic’s Mom – Not Gonna Take It Anymore!
I cannot believe what has just happened. I read all the training notes on Phil’s Courage, what an awesome site. Lilttle Silic is doing great, however, he has a nipping fetish, not in an aggressive way, but unacceptable just the same. So I tried something new other than the John Lyons. After reading the journal…
