Do you do everything with your horse that you bought it for

we nearly do everything now. OH does some quite sucessful in hand showing, and don is away at the moment being broken to drive, so once I have mastered that, we are just about there!!
 
I did with my grey - he took me beyond levels I thought I'd do competing. He is my perfect horse! (shame he's now permanently broken :( ). My new horse I was given for £1. So I didnt really have much expectation with him, just to see what he could do. Been BSJA'ing him, but my heart lies with eventing, which he's never done! So will be popping him over some XC jumps as soon as the snow goes and I guess we'll see how he does!
 
Knobberpony has done everything we have asked of her,hacks alone and in company,rounds up sheep,hunts,cross country,show jumps,working hunter,gymkhana games,fancy dress,goes to Pony Club,went to camp,has done a bit of dressage.Never lets us down.

New pony has only been with us 8 weeks and had done very little although rising 7.Had been a driving pony until broken to ride last summer.So far,with us he has hacked out on the road,but not good with large vehicles yet,schooled nicely,been to a mock hunt and behaved impeccably,jumped a small course,done a few gymkhana games at home,met lots of farm animals,conquered his fear of bicycles and has his first PC rally and first time in an indoor school tomorrow.
 
No but mainly due to my foot still not being fixed and over estimating my own confidence levels. We are getting there slowly and i'm enjoying them both very much anyway.
