so newbies...and oldies....

Talk about anything that catches your fancy, not necessarily horse-related. Just sit back, get comfortable and chat with friends.

I've bred and raised her and I'm quite proud of how she's turned out! She's only 14.1hh though, but my SO is now riding her and they go well together. He rides her western, and I ride her english. We dabbled in Dressage this summer, but my passion is jumping and anything with an adrenaline rush.#ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl##ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl#Cassidy, a 5yr old grey New Forest pony. She's 13.2hh and plucky like Merrylegs. I actually aquired her, solely because I wanted a Merrylegs of my own :-) She's out on lease to a couple girls in Pickering, they're making a hunter pony out of her. I'm looking forward to having her around for our kids in the future.#ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl##ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl#Bruiser, a 2.5yr old TB colt. He's a good 16.1hh already and still growing. I always wanted a 16hh+ horse..not that I need one being as short as I am though! He has surprised me over and over with his sensibility and character, I am deeply in love with this guy :) He's like a big kid, loves his hugs, loves gawking at the girls and is a big suck for both me and my SO. #ed_op#BR#ed_cl#Depending on how his legs hold up, I am hoping he'll be my next fox hunter and maybe we can dabble in eventing.  #ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl##ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#FONT face=Verdana color=#668f5a size=2#ed_cl#Dicipline(s): I'm open to just about anything, and I'll do anything I can in an english saddle :) I do love fox hunting, x-country, hacking, and jumping. I dabbled in dressage with Jubie, but often times got distracted and ended up jumping rather than practising our tests. Jumping in a dressage saddle...not such a good idea lol!  And as mentioned above, my SO rides Jubie western now, they both really enjoy it and look good together!#ed_op#/FONT#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
