Rhapsody Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Just got back from a lovely hack with a friend on my two fab geldings. Sun out, birds singing and ponies perfect even when a bonkers dog tried to play with them. You cant beat it folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I am yet to ride my boy out We currently spend all our time in the school. I had a lovely lesson this morning but thought that it would have been perfect for riding out What sort of bridal is your pony wearing Rhapsody? I cannot see a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlass Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Your section D is lovely Rhapsody... Is it a Hackamore your riding him in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhapsody Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Thank you ladies....the Welshman gets ridden in a hackamore (I now have a loverly matching breastplate) with a bit he will hollow brace and run, despite regular dentistry, his bars are huuge and really fleshy. We're both much happier with the hackamore. He is also barefoot and ridden in a treeless saddle Can you hear the sound of non-horsey folk snoring? Chickenlass your pone looks so gorgeous in that photo! Ps That pic of me is horrendous, I am wearing my oldest scrottiest gear I'm never clean and tidy!

Mel (& Paul) Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Paul and I started to learn to ride just over two years ago and now have two horses - a New Forest and a Conamara - Murphy and Winston! Just got back from feeding and grooming them and there is not much better than see them cantering back across the field to all their mates at the end! I had a bad fall last April and had six months of physio on my back - but that didnt stop me getting back in the saddle!

chelsea Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 The the predictable thing about horses is their unpredictability I agree. Horses scare me I was bitten on the neck by a racehorse when I was 9. I love seeing everyone's photos though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessa the Duchess Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I agree. Horses scare me I was bitten on the neck by a racehorse when I was 9. Horses scare me too I was kicked on the shin by one when I was younger. I think they are beautiful animals though, just from a safe distance Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
