A Bit About Me and my Horse(s)
I bought my first horse, Tango, on May 24, 2008. She's a wierdo as a half Appy, quarter Arab, and quarter Percheron, but she manages to be super cute. We had a really rough start when she wanted to be the boss and I was too gentle to have any say about it, but since then we have become more of equals, and we have been learning a whole lot more as partners! Tango was a prize-winning barrel horse, but I have been working on turning her dressage (no easy task). We've been doing pretty well, but of course, now I have a 20 year old arthritic barrel horse, and I'm starting to think about looking for something a little more, well, dressage-ish! And of course I still adore my old mare. Going to get a job so I can get myself another horse!!! :P
Do you have any pets?
