To me, a horse is your partner. They are not commodities to be sold when they no longer meet your needs. Horses are intelligent, graceful, wise animals that you build a relationship with and it is our responsibility to always care for them. My horses are not a passing thing for me - they are forever in my heart. Once they are a part of my family, they will always be with me.

Sunday's Ride
I rode Rocky again on Sunday - and he was really wonderful. I did not lunge him prior, and he was laid back and well behaved. We walked and trotted, circled, and even cantered here at home! He makes it all the way down the long side, but has a little trouble with balance still on the corners (my ring is 60' by 180' - I thought I would be getting into dressage when it was built... oh well :) ) So we cantered both directions, and then trotted over a little X several times. He was just so good, we kept it short and sweet - and it was a beautiful, wonderful morning to be riding!
