I won't jump Hank again and luckily he is just as happy being a dressage horse.<br /><br />And Mikey yes I have one of those type of horses. Mason is very cute and very sweet especially with his owner, but he is not the sharpest tool in the shed.<br /><br />And Francesca I am so happy for you!!!! I hope you have found the one. I know that when I sat on Pete for the first time I felt like I was home. I just hope I can duplicate it. You will have to let us know how it works out. I will think positve good aura thoughts for you.Terri Rocovichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08222380250153504890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-234622277735279502011-01-18T10:44:10.003-08:002011-01-18T10:44:10.003-08:00Welcome back, Terri; I hope you can fit blogging i...Welcome back, Terri; I hope you can fit blogging into your busy herd.Alisonhttp://www.alisonhartbooks.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-7217195297389442172011-01-18T02:31:35.727-08:002011-01-18T02:31:35.727-08:00Terri, this wasn't boring at all, I enjoyed ev...Terri, this wasn't boring at all, I enjoyed every word! It's lovely to read about all your horses, and your attachment to them shines through.<br /><br />As for our search for our new competition horse (although mine probably won't get used for competing much as I hate it!), mine is underway and ooh lala I think I'm in love! I think I am... and hopefully will be finding out whether this love transfers from video footage on You Tube into real life by the weekend (this horse is in the UK). <br /><br />He's...beautiful, but more importantly appears to have this amazing aura. I've got chills!!!

I had b...Terri--Thanks for the update on your herd. I had been wondering about them all, especially Hank, since you had blogged about his soundness issues. I am sorry to hear you are still going through this with him. I have had horses nerved for both navicular and ringbone--with very mixed results. I feel for you in trying to make that decision. In the case of the ringbone horse we were just trying to make him comfortable enough to be a pasture pet, but it was still a hard decision to make.<br /><br />My herd is doing well--we just got back from a trail ride through the hills--first one we have been able to take since it started pouring in December. My horses basically got a month off--sounds like yours did, too. But now we are going again and enjoying the beautiful weather. My good little trail horse, Sunny, like your Pete, is showing the effects of a month off. He was quite lively for him at the beach on Friday (I will do a blog post on that one). Today on the trail he was pretty good, until we met the bridge that was newly put in (meaning it was not there the last time we passed that way). It was actually pretty amusing to watch his expression and he did nothing violent, but I did have to get my friend's horse to give me a lead over it on the way out. Sunny crossed in the lead on the way back--I guess I'm going to have to quit bragging on him, though. He's not so bombproof after a month off.<br /><br />I am so glad that you are back to posting. I love hearing about your horses.Laura Crumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200878892304748308noreply@blogger.com
