The saddle didn't fit -.-

The saddle didn't fit. Giga was COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE. I've never experienced anything like it. She didn't care about me at all! She pushed, squashed and even stepped on me. So now she's going to really get some intense training of her stop signal.

But unfortunately she bucked with the saddle. SUCKS!

Cross fingers

Today I'll try another saddle on Giga, cross fingers for it fits her. 

I really would love to soon have a new saddle! She needs one!

Wow, what a horse!

This is Trovador da Raposa, bred by Heitor Nisencwajg in Brasil. He was Champion Stallion over 5 years old in this year's International Lusitano Expo in Lisbon. 

That stallion can some good moves, if you know what I mean ;-D

Finally a day without rain!

I think Denmark will soon drown. Throughout June, it has almost rained every day. What a summer, huh? Oh, but today it was thankfully beautiful weather and probably about 20 degrees. It was quite fortunate as me and three friends had agreed we would ride out together today. We rode down to a beautiful lake that lies pretty far from Flower Farm, ca. 1 hour. We rode from the farm at 09.30 and we were home again at 13.15. So it was a long trip. Giga did pretty good but on the way home, she got something of an mentalte breakdown. Very annoying. I'm a little tired of her. But I'll just have to train more in the woods. But otherwise we had a fun day at the lake. Giga was the first who was really out swimming, although it took some time to get her into the water. Crazy Horse!

Fire in Colorado

Put all of your energy and prayers for the folks in Colorado, please!


"HorseCouponBook.com is headquartered in Colorado and though we are a safe distance from the fires, our hearts sink every time we look to the South and see the smoke and flames engulfing this beautiful state.

Our hearts are with those whose family and horses are close to the devastation no matter what state you're in. -HCB Team"

Spot on!

Eternity project

My horse exploits the bad weather. She has started to drink water from puddles, although she has fresh water out on the field, it tastes obviously better :-)

And red suits her pretty good. I'd just like to buy some little things for my horses and then suddenly this halter just fell down into my shopping cart. Ups!

Right now I'm doing something that feels like an "eternity project". I am looking for the perfect saddle for Giga, now that the one I wanted was taken from me. The saddler is trying to find something to me but no matter what I try, there is never something that is as good as the saddle I originally wanted. Sigh! I think we've tried 10 different saddles now.
