Chill day

Today I had my boyfriend with me out to Giga. It was really nice. He is quite afraid of Giga most because of her size but he did well. Today I trained Spanish Steps and then afterwards I walked and trotted a little on her. Unfortunately, I had many things I had to do today. Tomorrow I expect that I'll ride off into the woods. I hope the weather is good!

Haha, It's A-Okay!

Not bad!?

Homemade Halter

My first attempt to create a halter. It was a little too big, but practice makes perfect, I guess :-P?
All in all I am quite happy with the outcome. I have several projects started. Interesting, huh?

A little tip

Is your horse afraid for the sound of a spray bottle?
A horse's brain can't grasp several things at once. If you distract the brain the horse won't notice the "danger" it fears. So try to take your spray bottle while holding a water hose. While washing the horse's legs, begin to use your spray bottle. The horse will most likely not react and so you can praise it. And just as quietly, you can remove the distraction and then get a positive result.

A lovely picture

Passivity, control, is the essence of everything that exists... endless possibilities..

Good night dear friends....

One Happy Horse

I can just say that it only goes forward with Giga. At the moment there is just praise for that horse. She rests well in herself and she's very calm and manageable. Which is really nice. I look forward to my extended weekend. I'm free both tomorrow and Friday.


Here's a little video of my happy horse. She loves to walk free down to the field :-D

Sorry for the bad quality.

My German Shepherd

It's nice to have a shepherd when you don't bother training your horse.

Dressage event

Yesterday I visited my brother. He lives about 40 minutes from me. I went up and saw his daughter - my niece, riding a dressage event on her pretty little pony.

She did so well, I'm so proud of her. She has come a long way. My brother is a rider, so she gets the proper education.

She thought she did poorly, but she won the class with 74%. Not bad ... I knew she would win ;-)
