So Hot!

I've had a FANTASTIC day! Today was the hottest day unto this year in Denmark. It was about 24+ degrees, now think, I rode in a tanktop and I was still hot? Lovely!

The first hour I spent just sitting and talking with some girlfriends on the outdoor arena. It was too hot to any of us bother to ride seriously. Afterwards I rode alone into the woods. Giga was at first very alert and nervous. But after a while she fell down and was fairly calm. It's afterall about 3,5 weeks since I last rode her in the woods.

After our wonderful ride. Giga got a proper cool bath. I don't think she has ever enjoyed a cold shower as much as she did today. She stood as if she was planted into the ground. She didn'´t move a muscle :-)

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.
