| Watching the rain as we cooled down Wednesday |
Wednesday afternoon I had a fun hack... There were lots of people at the barn and thankfully Henry doesn't care about the chaos.
It was raining so everyone was inside- lots of trying not to get run into or run over. I really really really wish that people knew left left when passing. If only...
We warmed up at the walk, did a nice long walk and then went to the trot.. my goal was to do some shoulder in/out, haunches in/out and leg yields but with like 6 other people all over the place that didn't happen. I just went through the paces and did a little counter canter work after a few of them left.

Thursday I snuck in a quick 25 min hack before the dentist came.
I had the whole arena to myself so I did lots of long and low and changes of direction. Henry was forward but willing... I really love riding this horse.
Cleaned him up and then he had a dentist appointment... poor guy! I am NOT a fan of the human dentist so it makes me anxious to even watch the horse dentist. lol.. but I learned a lot and made it ;)

He was ok, even brought a snack for our walk haha!
He's going to get Fri and Sat turn out and then I hope to hack Sunday.
It snowed here this weekend... wth! I hate the human dentist too. Almost as much as Apollo hates the horse dentist.
ReplyDeleteYeah dentist is no bueno!! lol
DeletePoor guy! Hope his mouth is better.
ReplyDeleteHe seems great now :)
DeleteThe water has been falling from the sky here for a week now. :( Good news-I haven't watered horses in a week (troughs are full from rain...a 100 gallon and a 50 gallon). Also my pastures look like something straight out of Ireland. Bad news- no riding. Womp womp. Yay for Henry being such a good boy!
ReplyDeleteHaha way to find the positive!
Deleteyay for rain! but boo for overly busy arenas....
ReplyDeleteyes to both! thankfully Henry doesn't mind the chaos!
