Our lovely border (along with dear friend) decided she wanted to ride Guinness this week and I 100% without any issues said go for it! I’m currently dealing with an injury myself and haven’t been able to work him in the last 2 weeks besides ground work. At no time did she not have a smile on her face!!

She then got me on him with her tiny saddle, extra long leathers that has kid size stirrups on him! 😂🙈 Unfortunately my boot didn’t fit the stirrups and the leathers couldn’t go up anymore so I just rolled with it. Thankfully I had my helmet! My gear is in another trailer currently at the shop so I couldn’t have even switched tack if I wanted too.

I absolutely don’t condone riding in gear that doesn’t fit properly or without shoes. My Pony Club people will get me for it as I’m a graduated C-2/H-B pony clubber.

But honestly even with me hurting I absolutely enjoyed my little walk around with him! I trust him to take care of me and he did. Best boy ever.

There truly isn’t nothing like buying your best friend at 4 days old, to watch them grow, to eventually get to see the view between their ears. It’s truly a blessing I get to enjoy with him and having others getting to experience it as well.

So some amazing pictures of my friend riding him to then me riding him that should be posted in the blooper groups and the don’t do that ones as well.

“But hey, we laugh and don’t judge!” Or is it “We listen and don’t judge!”

Here is an unedited video of Manu Fortis Cróga King at the 2024 Young Horse Show Series Finals at the TIEC! This video is from him as a 3yr old. We have been letting him just grow and be horse during his 4yr old year, so we didn’t update any videos or pictures.
