Bad Dog

Saddle Seat Wednesday This was a Hartmeyer show glove. a

I have written two posts about Rodney’s Happy Meter [Progress, Taste Vs. Authenticity has commentary on the photo in Doctor Whooves]. Each time, I get a host of anecdotal agreement. Horses who enjoy grooming. Horses who embarrass their owners in front of children. I wonder if these events are more common that I realize, onlyContinue reading “Rodney’s Reaction”

Milton’s Menu

Grain first, then hay. This is the order of the meal. The order of the meal shall not be f*cked with. Milton has European tastes. He eats his salad after, thank you. At mealtime, we feed grain first. While they are eating, the server arranges the hay. Since the horses are at pasture, they haveContinue reading “Milton’s Menu”

Milton’s Progress, April 2016

The ground tie is still a work in progress [Milton 2.0]. He doesn’t leave, but heContinue reading “Milton’s Progress, April 2016”

Leg Lessons

Saddle Seat Wednesday To punish us for sins in a previous life, Stepping Stone Farm gives leg lessons. An amenable schoolhorse trots the inner perimeter of the small covered ring while the rider posts without stirrups, reaches arms overhead, assumes the Flying Angel of Death (a modified, hands-free two-point), and so on. Instructor stands inContinue reading “Leg Lessons”
