A HUGE congratulations to Jill and Lil Dude! ❤️

Sunday was extra special as Jill earned her first National Reserve National Championship and National Top Ten with Dude! 🏆

Jill has been working toward this for a long time, and seeing all of that hard work pay off makes this so exciting. She even switched disciplines in the middle of the year with a new horse and continued to put in the work to reach her goals.

The dedication Jill puts into riding, learning, and improving with her horse is incredible, and we couldn’t be happier to see her achieve these goals. We are so proud of you, Jill, and can’t wait to see what you two accomplish next! ❤️

Congratulations on such a well-deserved accomplishment! 🎉
