Progress and first show report**Pics**

[Dottyfordylan]

Well we have come a long way since i started riding dylan in august so i thought id put on a little update. He was a little overexcited in the lorry but got there in one piece.
The warm up was....interesting everyone found it hilarious that i was almost doing piaffe as he was soo excited although my O/H thought i was just showing of some fancy moves lol

We did the clear round and he did very well indeed. Got a little scared of the mirrors lining the end wall,scary wavey plank and plank with playing cards on. As far as i know he hadnt jumped till i had him nor ridden indoors or with lots of horses in the school with him so im very happy

here are a few piccies hope you like him!

This is the summer when i first started to ride Dylan after he'd been a pet the standing in a field for got knows how long.

Our interesting warm up routine

Crazy legs settled down eventually so we were off for the clear round

I think he looks rather pleased with himself...and so am i!

thanks for looking and sorry for the overload

Ahh the neckstrap has been fantastic as he also has quite a buck on him!!

I couldn't help but smile in the warm up as everyone was wetting themselves at his crazy trot it was not much fun to rise to lol

I plan to do a bit of everything with him he seems to be getting rather good at dressage so it's handy Im on a dressage yard! Will be doing xcountry and hopefully evening too
