by Bonnie Hammond | Aug 12, 2010 | Dexter
Update from Sara Hall: I have a good news/bad news update with Dexter. The bad news is that we were not as prepared as we should have been for the show and Dexter was super amped up/anxious in the show environment. Ultimately I decided to scratch my afternoon of…

Update from Sara Hall: I rode Dexter for the 4th time today and took my second lesson with Andrea. Each ride is better with him. He’s *starting* to understand bending and stearing. We got the left lead canter 3 or 4 times in a row today and ended on a good note, when…
Bubbles Update from July 29 2010
by Bonnie Hammond | Jul 29, 2010 | Bubbles
Bubbles loaded right into my trailer without hesitation and hauled like a pro the 6+ hours in the heat and traffic it took me to get home from Oregon. Bubbles is quite a looker and a very sweet girl at that! Even though she still needs a little work on having her hind…
