Sasha — Apr 3, 2009

Good Evening! So far so good with the saddle! Today is day three (I missed her first time with it as I was at work). Unfortunately I forgot the video camera, but I’ll remember for Monday’s lesson. She did very well at our lesson tonight–Amber lunged her under saddle,…

Aiden Update from Apr 2, 2009

Dr Hanna came out yesterday to give Aiden his shots and do his gelding. But Aiden had other ideas…one of his testacles hasn’t dropped. So he just got shots and an adjustment on his neck. We will make an other plan of attack in a few weeks. He was a very good boy.…

Whisper Update — April 1, 2009

From Monica Bretherton: I used some less lovely pictures I took on Friday of Whisper yesterday as a lead up to the art show: http://blog.seattlepi.com/horsebytes/archives/165379.asp Guess she’s not so sylph-like after all underneath that blanket!

Whisper Update — March 30, 2009

It was a sad day for me yesterday, as Bonnie and I hauled Whisper to her new foster home in Duvall. However, she’s healthy, and just needs a nice place to grow up and hang out and because she is so sweet and easy to handle she was the logical choice for our new foster…

Sasha — Mar 27, 2009

Good Evening, all! I have some new pics to share of Sasha. Instead of working with the trainer twice a week, we changed to five times a week (M‑F) this month. She’s really come far since we changed the amount of time she is being worked. I think we’ll be trying the…

Biscotti — Mar 23, 2009

Naughty little Scotti got his shots today. He was good for the shots, he’s just naughty in general. He’s got the funniest personality, but he’s a troublemaker!

Whisper Update — March 23, 2009

I need to take some new photos of Whisper! She is back at my farm right now before she moves to a new foster home in Duvall. She looks so amazing, hardly even recognizable from the mess she was in December. She is almost FAT now, she even has a little bubble butt! She…

Summer Update from Mar 21 2009

Summer under saddle: Here’s a video as well. She did great with my son. He has never rode a horse all on his own I always lead him but they did great together.  She is go good with the kids. Next time he rides I will use the small…

April Training Notes: Jewel

Jewel is doing well, learning to lunge and develop some ground manners. She still pulls on the halter when lunging and she overreacts when asked to go out on the circle. Treatment to the injury she sustained to her left hind foot was actually beneficial to…

April Training Notes: Phoenix

Phoenix’s rehab is going well. We’ve re-introduced walking under saddle. He is up to 20 mins of riding, continuing some hand walking up to 30 without rider. Increasing both by 5 mins gradually over each the week until we reach 45–60 mins then continue with that…

April Training Notes: Skittles

Skittles is doing very well and is now going walk trot and canter under saddle. She did seem to lose a little weight this month, possibly due to coming into season, so I increased her mash again just a bit. She is muscling up a bit along the top line mostly over her…
