I actually joined like last year or something but I kind of forgot about the forum until I was going through my emails
I`m from good ole nova scotia, down on the beautiful east coast of canada. I`ve been in the saddle since before I could walk, but I only got my first horse 2 years ago for my 16th birthday! He was a horse that a friend of mine owned and let me show before she moved out of the country for school and sold him to another friend that I showed with.. they didnt really click and she sold him to me after about a year. Unfortunatly he was not the same horse he used to be (got away with misbehaving and picked up a lot of bad habits) it was so hard to see him like that when I got him and I was so frustrated with his new habbits that I would actually break down and cry.. and im not a crying person what so ever, but after about a year of constantly working with him, I got my old boy back! I have never been so happy with a horse, I love him to death and would honestly take a bullet for him. He`s a 14 year old appendix quarter horse gelding, sorrel with 2 brands, one on either hip. He does western and english pleasure, reining, dressage, hunter/jumper, showmanship, trail, etc. basically everything you could ask him to do! I want to start him on cutting and other cow work, might as well try his hand at it since his grandsire (Mr. San Peppy) was a legendary cutting horse! :)
Anyway, i`ve rambled on enough haha so i`ll post some pictures of my special fella...
