Project: Spaghetti Legs

[shadeofshyness]

She's gorgeous! My favourite colour too - a real Barbie horse! Your other one is lovely too, don't want her to feel left out! Good luck with both of them and keep us posted with lots of pics x

She is gorgeous - and she is very lucky indeed to have found you. Lots of updates, please!

This, totally this! Well done you, amazing what a bit of patience and correct handling can do for a horse!

She looks very happy. Good bit of determination shown to get he back on the right track - well done.

How lovely. I think there is something very healing, about helping another horse.

And FW, you are some horsewoman!

Brilliant post! Looks a long promising future for you both

What a lovely post. She is a very lucky mare to have found you.

Thanks. Really feel I am lucky too. Not so much when I tried to take her rug off loose in the field and she bogged off today but most of the time she's being good now! I won't make that mistake again either.

I know nothing about taking on a project horse, but she is beautiful and even I can see how she looks so happy to be yours.

Thanks. I don't intend to sell her unless she's completely useless over fences but hopefully she will be ok. (I'm not needing to jump more than a metre anyway!)

This put a huge smile on my face.. I didn't expect it at all when I clicked on the post!

Sounds like you've put a mountain of work into her, and although it'll take time, she really couldn't have landed in a better place!

Hope you enjoy her, and sorry about losing your little girl last year x

Aww thanks so much. I've not put that much work in to be honest. She's a really quick learner and as long as I'm consistent with her she's improving so quickly.

Echoing everyone else and saying well done! She's gorgeous, I'm quite jealous (love a pally )

Thanks. I've got two palominos, the other one is only 13.1 and my daughter's next pony.

Amazing job, well done. A nice little pick-me-up on a soggy Monday morning!


She looks a sweet mare, very pretty.

Aw thanks that's lovely.*

What a super little horse, and what a great job you've done with her. Hope she helps to heal your broken heart. Sorry for your loss. x

Thanks Sheep. She has definitely helped. I'm very lucky.

Such a cool pair of horses! I love them both.

Thanks. I can't believe I've got such a lovely pair lol

This is fantastic! You have done an amazing job with her.

These horses are so easily misunderstood and labelled as bad horses.

At the risk of sounding a bit 'rainbows & fairies', it sounds like you were meant to find each other.

Thanks. I do feel like she was meant to be mine (but thankfully at a cheaper price lol)

Bloomin lucky that barbie pony .

Yes I keep telling her that. While planning her next outfit

Beautiful pony and wonderful thread.

Very well done to you! She is going to be a cracker!

She is lovely! You have done so well with her. Just shows what a bad or wrong person for a horse can do to it. You got there in time with your mare and she looks like she's thriving with her new life! Well done

Thanks so much. I'm in touch with the owner I viewed her with originally and she's so glad I've ended up with her after all.

Blimey, I think you are clearly a masochist ! But sounds like you are making amazing progress, good on you !

Ha ha I don't think so. If I really thought she was dangerous I wouldn't have touched her with a ten foot pole.

I loveeee her!

Can I just say that it really is true when you are able to read a horse through their eyes. She looks bright, relaxed and they have that 'kind' gentle look to them!

She is one lucky mare and has really landed on her feet by the sounds of it.

Thanks,her general temperament is kind and bold / fearless. Everything else is man made sadly.

Spider/Spaghetti legs is so lucky to have found you to show her the right way to do things. She's really coming on and is an absolute credit to you!

Thanks super groom. Some horrible boy at School called me Spaghetti legs for years, it seems to suit her lol
