David - loved your comment - I also notice my horse is getting wider - my leg just doesn't swing like it used to - damn hips!
Great precision - ponies are too cute!
We're waiting for a good snowfall to cover the trails so we can ride out. Right now we are in a freeze, thaw cycle that is making everything really slippery - so we're stuck indoors. However, at least there is that option! Now if we could just get s…
Thanks Ann.
Does anyone have experience with the Circle Y Flex Lite western saddles? I've not been a big fan of Circle Y in the past but this is newer technology. My Billy Cook reiner no longer fits my horse. He's rather broad in the shoulders with a fairly hig…
Great comment Linda W. I have a young gelding who is not push button broke but he is quiet and sensible and I am learning a ton from him. I've never trained a young horse before - always ridden something broke to death. I can't tell you how much fun…
Congratulations Jan and have fun!
Ann - so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to lose a beloved horse. Just think - green grass, no fences.
Hey Linda - stops the boobs from bouncing better than a sports bra? I'm all over that!

Fleur has gone on to a new life.
Little miss Fleur, my yearling filly, left for the New Brunswick farm of Patrick St. Onge today. Patrick is a well-known Canadian reiner, now based in Gainsville, Texas. Fleur loaded like a charm - first time is always the easiest! I guess she will be a pasture pony until she's two anyway. I hope he keeps me updated on her progress - I wonder if she will end up in Texas?
Got a lovely email from Patrick on the Sunday to say that she had arrived in St. Jacques, NB safe and sound. They really like… Continue

Welcome William!
Check out the photographs of my new pony, William. He is a 15.2 hand Dry Doc bred quarter horse gelding, five years old. I've had him for a month now and we are really getting to know one another. He is very quiet, willing and forgiving. Nothing much bothers this boy! Thanks so much to Patrick Mulligan who raised and trained William and took the time to ride with me and teach me some of his buttons. I'm so glad Willy failed at roping!
I've had William for 3 months now and I just love him. Had t… Continue

Better late than never. Now if they would start judging the way the stated purposes of the tests as stated. As others have mentioned on other topics, there are lots of despicable training that goes on behind the barn. But when the proponents of such…
Has the FEI finally taken a stand on this issue? I thought is was only the GEF although they should have some punch.
Thanks for posting! If you guys want to read about the same topic discussed at the FEI Round Table Conference I posted the link to the Dressage Daily article below.

Great find! Keep up the series. Many people will learn from this very well laid out video course. From a saddle maker's view point I love it when people can learn the dos and care of the horse and rider from a proper fitting saddle. It isn't a secre…
