Today marks exactly 3 months since Snoop and I ran together at Ft. Smith — the last time he was rode. 🖤 Life pulled us in a different direction for a while, but that’s changing now.
This week: going on the hot walker starts in the am, shoes go on next, and we’re building him back up the right way — not the fast way. On the ground side, the round pen’s completely torn down (weeds had taken it over), dragged clean, and just waiting on the gate and two panels to get welded, once the new welder plug is in soon. Arena’s the next project — still grass and dried clumps from trying to work it up. Until we get some rain then we can try to work it up properly. It’s going to be a process, but we’ve done it before.
Snoop’s watched every bit of this from his trap, and honestly, I think he’s just excited to have me back in his life. He’s been wanting this — real time together, not just a quick feeding and out the door. He knows what’s coming, and we’re gonna come back stronger than ever. Can’t wait 🐴💪🔥
I know we hit at Ft Smith, but he also bled that day and that’s why he needed the time off at first. Then the family needed us so he got to rest longer.
