Ok so it has been a few days since I have posted. I don’t have anyone in training anymore so, no owners to post for. If I had anyone in training I would be run ragged. I also don’t have any room for anymore horses although there are a couple more I have my eye on.
As far as Vinnie goes, he is settling in quite nicely. The first day, he was acting like a 3 yrd old Stud but today I think he felt more at home. Yesterday I did get on, only because I am crazy. And I will get on anything. Wasn’t such a good ride but my saddle didn’t really fit me on him that well. So it was interesting, I was only walking him for about 10 mins in the round pen and we ended it well. So basically he is broke to get on and that is it. His lungeing also needs a little work. But that is ok we are going to work on it.
Today, we lunged a got to work up a little sweat, so I am planning on slowly bringing back starting with lungeing for about 20 minutes, which is what I did today and then I will start getting on. I picked up a nice little used saddle at Roddicks. I think this is the 3rd saddle I have bought from there, that fits me on him a little better and then he can have his own saddle also picked him up a new bridle as the ones I have are a little too big.
Tommorow depending on weather, I will be lungeing and then jumping on for aout 10 minutes just at the walk to get him used to the ring.
Also, if it is raining I will be heading over to Crescent Stables as they have allowed me to trailer in to exercise my horses. Finally I found a place to exercise with a indoor. Thank God for small favors.!
Also I have decide to put my wonderful mount up for sale. I would really like to see her go to a school horse home. More details on that tommorow. For now off to bed.
