Shadow has been doing wonderfully. Jamie was home from Texas and we did a lot of riding that week.
He has been improving weekly, and I am sure to ride him every chance i get. It is great to see how well he is actually doing.
I think we have the trot pretty much down to a science, he is finally consistent and riding on a looser rein. I don't have to hold him up as much.
The canter is still a little rough, and we can't hold it around the ring fully, but we will get there, i'm not really in a rush, I would like the trot to be a little less work still before i move onto anything else.
He is such a good boy.
New Opportunity.
Dom has moved Dancer in to live with us, to hopefully help her sell him. We have a cute little barn which is rather inviting and is a nice place to show a sale horse.
I am leasing him from her until he sells and riding him every time i get to ride shadow.
Shadow and Dancer are in fields right next to each other and they love each other! It;s nice to see Shadow getting along with another because he has been in a feild alone since I brought him home almost a year ago.
Saturday night i went out and rode both boys and they were wonderful.
I really enjoy riding Dancer, he is alot less work that shadow and i dont have to think much, I can just ride. Riding him improves all my strength and helps me ride Shadow more effectively.
This is a wonderful opportunity I have been given by Dom and I can't wait to get back into jumping with dancer, after all, jumping was always my passion.
They're twins, it's crazy!
Shadow and I will be together for one full year this week.
I can't believe how fast it has gone and how far we have come. I love that horse with my hole heart <3
