I love your signature quote, it's so beautiful and TRUE!

I'm alright, a bit tired. I have my lesson in 3 hrs and I keep thinking that I've only got so many days left with my horse :/

Barns tend to cause so much drama which is why I can't wait to just have him in my own backyard haha

Well I hope this potential barn works this time round!

Yeah that sounds very fishy... I'm glad you didn't go through with it! Back on the hunt again?

Pardon me for prodding.. how did Friday go??

Yay how exciting!!!! I hope it's what you're looking for :)

Any progress? :)

Where abouts in Canada are you from?

You're very welcome! I hope you find the right one!

if you're in the woods and don't have a block....time to get creative! I've stacked rocks. I've put her in the stream bed and I got on the bank. (only to have the bank crumble) Pretty soon I'll be...

I just stay in my jammies and hibernate till spring :)

Is that your experience? Once we blanket for the winter, we leave them on 24/7. We take them off to work the horse or to put a clean blanket on. (I really REALLY dislike crusty horse blankets) ...

Very good post, Wallaby :D. Randella, I am glad that you were able to get some good information from my thread:D. I am all for people riding their horse in whatever is most comfortable for them...

I switched my horse from a bit to a simple bitless rope halter 8 years ago and never went back. I simply kept my horse responding to pressure/release at first but soon realized that there were some...

Bitless bridles...where to start. I guess I'll just tell you some of my+Lacey's story and see where that goes. When I first got Lacey, she was fussy about the bit. She'd go fine, most of the...

I'm as curious with the others about if you contacted the trainer. I don't know any trainer who chases up a student for a lesson, if you want to learn thats your responsibility. At the risk of...
