I don't have an account on SS but a friend does so I tend to go her account and talk to her friends about pepper and I've had nothing but praise for her :)

Thanks for replying :)
Yes she is definitely pretty, and standing at 15.1hh she isn't too big nor too small either. I do know that the feathers must come off but I believe in keeping them on over winter haha, just my opinion but she is a gorgeous girl with a fab attitude. Just need...

Thanks! I've been onto the Scottish Showing forum and a woman on my yard who competes in ridden cob every year thinks i should go for it! She has a lot of learning to do so maybe not this summer but maybe either next summer or even late this autumn as the showing season comes to a...
I want to take my 7 year old mare out showing in the summer of 2012 but I am new to the showing world and wondered if she has real potential?
Personally I think she has brilliant conformation, but what is your opinion? :)
In her last home she was DEFINITELY in charge of the owners not the opposite way around. When I first got her she would go in the huff if asked to stop fidgeting or if she received a slap from myself! My farrier had to give her a slap the first time he visited because she took the utter piss and...
Takeachance, your reply gave me so much hope! It sounds like you're doing so well with your boy and I applaud your patience :)
I'm glad that both of you are able to have more relaxing hacks and maybe with my determination and ever growing bond with my horse we can continue with the same...
For a start I don't know WHY some people in particular on this post are being nasty, telling myself that taking a lunge line is "dangerous"
My horse hasn't even THOUGH about napping once since I have been walking her in-hand and will hack in-hand to her hearts content
She is also...
Somebody on my yard made there own that works just as well and cost 1/3rd of the price!
She bought rubber front door mats that have the circular holes in them, cable tied them together and trimmed/filed down the edges, got 2 pieces of wood and put these over the edges of the rubber mats and...
I have a schooling field at my yard (field with jumps, dressage markers etc) that I planned to initially practice in before I attempted long reining but I honestly can't see her being fazed by the ropes across her sides or the steering side of long reining
I am going to see how riding the...
Yeah she is definitely the type of horse that must spin round before she even considers panicking.
I did considered putting a neck strap on her and also taking a schooling whip but as I have not been riding her out I haven't had a chance to practice this technique but on Thursday I'm gonna...
This is definitely a good idea and thank you for commenting on my first ever post haha!
You know how it is, thrown in the deep end with a new horse that you are trying to fathom out! :)
I am going to try this on Thursday as we are certainly making progress and I was over the moon with her...
Hi guys, I'm wondering if you can help me!
I recently bought a 7 year old mare that has NEVER been told "No" in her life and has been treated like a princess and let away with absolute murder! I've had her rising 9 weeks now and we're becoming closer and closer each day.
The first couple of...
