Looks like fun! I love your mare, she's a ...
Her mare isn't pinning her ears, she is listening/watching what the person is doing.
Very cool that your mare lets you do that. I could never do that as 1. I would break my leg (im a bit clumsy, to say the least) and 2. My guy is 17 hands... O.O
I origanally thought the same, but then looked back :) I was like ohh good. Although I'm sure she isn't silly enough to do that to herself and her horse. Imagine the broken bones!
Lol I would deffinilty not jump up and down on a horses back! That would be mean! Lol. Allie could not care what you do to her, she is the most laid back horse i have ever owned. you can dismount and walk away for a half hr and ride another horse and she wont move! Shes definitly amazing
Haha, definitely a "trick" for my to-do list. I can spin around on Ricci, lay down all sorts of ways, lay down underneath her, crawl under her and between her legs, and slide off her bum. I've never stood but that's mostly because I'm terrified of heights, haha. Maybe I'll try it though, you definitely had fun. =]
LOL. I could do that off a few of mine, but not all! She's like... silly human... Haha.
You know the John wayne move, where he jumps into the saddle by running up behind the horse and propelling himself over their rump and onto their back? I can't do it with a saddle on, and I can't do it with any horse that's taller than 15 hands, but I can do it on my short horses! LOL. It's great. They just think I'm an idiot. It's fun though.
I have not tried that one! I have a 13.1 hand high pony i must try that on her.. I might end up on the ground though lol... not sure.
Its easy to do, but just make sure the horse is OKAY with you being behind them.Also you want to make sure that they will stand still while your doing it lol
