Just thought i'd share thumpers story with you all! When i first got thump,she was scared of people,head collars,everything. She was far from being in a ideal condition when i got her and from what we knew had not been treat too well,i had no idea what i was taking on,or the amount of work it would take or anything of the sort,i'm one of these people who doesnt think before i do anything,and i knew as soon as i got her how big of a mistake i'd made,and how she just stood in her stable,fear in her eyes shaking.
However, 2 years down the line EVERYBODY knows thumper,her amazing jump and her lively ways,she's the most adorable pony i've ever met and i love her to bits,and i will be extremly sad to see the back of her,she has won pretty much everything i have took her too and won port royals mid summers championship last year. I'm a very very proud mummy.

She's beautiful (I love chestnut mares :D ) and what a lovely story. Well done you for giving her a chance. I'm a sucker for a sob story to. My old mare turned out to be the most amazing pony ever. (she was agressave and unhandlable when I first got her, it was me or the meat man) It broke my heart when I lost her last July but now i've started a new story with Horrid Herbie :).
It's so rewarding when they come good isn't it :D

She was on the verge of going for meat too we got told :( she is a lovely little creature,such a charcter! It is,sorry about your loss.
 
Beautiful - good job - well done you. It just shows what hard work can do. We have had similar 'abused' horses/ponies come into our yard and with the love they get and the herd environment they soon learn that humans are not the enemy.
 
Well done you! You sound like my kind of person - nothing ventured, nothing gained! She looks gorgeous and really really like a show pony I had (by Cusop Fingerprint) called Rolston Lapwing - I wonder what has happened to him now?
Just shows what a good and committed rider can do! x
