Well Sophie our new pony arrived last saturday, she travelled fine was a little sweaty but nothing major, so she got wormed and settled in to her new stable,
Daughter rode sunday afternoon, she was a little cautious so just let them have a play in the school nothing too exciting, she rode again on monday night and all was good, for a 4 year old little sophie was doing everything that was asked of her.. bless clever pony.
She had Tuesday off and was ridden on wednesday we couldnt use the school cos Guy roberts was there helping two horses with loading issues, so we used the field at the side of the school, daughter wasn't keen on this and pony picked on up it, so ended up giving her a lead. but all i all ended good as we wen happy bunnies all round!
Last night daughter and pony rode really well, pony really starting to listen, about 30/40 mins in I told daughter to let pony have a break stretch her neck etc.. next min, ponys legs buckled and she got down to roll.. lol I shout.. "get off her get off her" lucky she got off in the nick of time.. we managed to get pony back up without much hastle and before she had rolled over with saddle.. phew.. pony not bothered in the slightest and daughter just laughed it off.
so all in all a nice eventfull week..
Fingers crossed next week is just as good
sorry for a long post, but thought you might like to hear how its going, This is my daughters 2nd Owned pony, and I know pony is only 4 but some how I think they might just be the perfect match...
