Pickles first time in the 2ft . It’s really fun to feel a young horse discovering their ability, and really enjoying their job. I think this describes this beautiful mare to a tee. Her progress everytime she steps into the arena over fences amazes me. 6 months ago she truly didn’t know how to jump. I don’t believe in over facing young horses . I believe it’s always better to go too slow than too fast. And the progression for Pickles has been exactly what she has needed. Her fitness has really progressed in the short time we have had her, and her temperament is calm and brave.
Afterwards I enjoyed a hack on my big bear 🐻 and I can truly say it’s been a wonderful birthday thus far thanks to my wonderful horses and clients and horse community!
