Another one here who had lesson in immense heat yesterday, my girl is coming on sooo well! We're on leg yield, last week it was all very confusing, yesterday she just got it. Instructor v pleased, week's 6.30am work worth it!!! I love my girlie! :D

Was riding past local stud and saw the most beautiful coloured newby filly foal- never been a big fan of coloureds but went home and told hubby I'd just seen my future horse! Five years on and we've been on the most amazing (and expensive and frustrating) journey together. She's the best and I'm...
Do you have a friend who could do what the professional did? If I had been the only one involved in loading training there's no way Lula would load now. I needed someone to tell me to ****** off and stop fussing when she danced around. SSSOOOO hard!!! However, now I have a horse I can load alone...
