Handy Horse

Chinky took Katie through the Handy Horse at riding club today. They did the bridge, walked over the tarp, through cones. gates and much more. This pony was fantastic and everyone commented on how sensible he was.

Chinky goes to a show.....



Chinky and I went to an Arab show. He was entered in a couple of led classes. He did well, although not placing he behaved well and was in good company. I think his puffy gullet is going to go against him but that is fine. I loaded him by myself and a lovley girl in the float next to me took some photos for me. So all in all it was a good outing. Although I took a bit of a detour and got a bit lost, that really added to the 11/2 hour travel time!

Riding Club....


This was Chinky's 13th ride. He went to riding club with the 8 year old. They played letter box drop, flag and barrel, bending, jumping and rider exercises. 8yo was super pleased as this pony did not put a foot wrong, he even liked the 44 gallon drums, they reminded him of food.
