We have had a busy one! We have been looking after charlie the hungarian vizla puppy who is so much fun! Went to ride yesterday but it was chucking it down!!!
Saffy has been getting fitter and its showing! This week she has been working really well in walk and trot in preparation for our first ever dressage test :eek3: next sunday BUT canter has been very exciting and in a olympic sized school with very bouncy surface canter quickly turns into wall of death! There is nothing nasty in it at all and she stops when you shout 'stand' but I think she has more oomph and needs a good blast so going on a big hack tomorrow!
With Cleo riding her she is perfect
looks after her so well but cleo has seen her tanking with me and has had a bit of a confidence knock for it 
so her instructor has had cleo doing walk and trot dressage tests and we have been going for lots of little hacks (me on foot) and cleo is feeling more comfortable. We bought saffy for her to grow into and as a more established pony for me so we could have big horse dizzy and little horse saffy! That way they have a home for life as none of us will ever grow out of them
Lots to look forward to dizzy still has 4 more weeks off (lucky girl) but she is so much better in herself, being a bit of a handful due to not working but its funny dizzy stuff not the lunatic I am in pain behaviour we had before! We are taking saffy to dressage next weekend, hopefully we wont embarrass ourselves too much
Its my first competition in 11yrs!!!!
Anyway some photos and videos
