Well It has been a very long time since I have written. Ummm. It's freezing cold now so I havn't been riding an awful lot, and Dudley has turned back into a pudge monster. Looks like I've got my work cut out for me in the spring..oi. I hate having a super easy keeper. He gets fat off of AIR for goodness sakes!

No but everything has been excellent. Carla just got a new foal... he's adorable. He is one of her mom's Arab foals from this past spring. We havn't got him 100% named yet he's...

Well we have been soaking Dudley foot in epsoms salts. and putting penatan on it before we ride, And he is totally sound. yay! So i'll be able to take him to the ride this Sunday!

Another *CRAZY* update.

The guy who bought Duke at the sale called Carla and said he LOVES him!! I'm soooo happy. He hasn't bucked or given him any sort of trouble like I said I think it's just me... I dunno why but we just butted heads. I'm glad that he's happy where he is.

Thanks...

Dudley... OH NO!

Posted 08-11-2007 at 05:35 PM by )*(ShelBy)*(

Well, I rode Tio, He's awesome. But too awesome. He is totally bomb proof and he is a push button horse. But he NEVER spooks, EVER! Honestly i do like my horses with a little spark. I lvoe the fact that Dudley can be a little hot some times, he doesn't get stupid just excited.

So I'm going to continue to lease Dudley. And hopfully I will come up with money and be able to purchase him. Like my mom put it "He's a really cool horse, who knows... maybe we'll win the lottery"...

Okay, HUGE update!

So, I've been leasing a Morab 'Nanjo's Dudley Do Right' for almost a month now. Everything has been fantastic, yesterday i did my first CTR with him, and we did awesome, we got 6th place (really good considering how round he is)

But his owners are REALLY pushing me to buy him, and I just can't afford that much money at my age... It's impossible for me to come up with that sort of money. So I didn't know if I should keep leasing him or if I should look for another horse.

My first CTR and I got 1st!! PLUS BIG SUPRISE

Well, On the weekend, Sunday, I went to my first Competative Trail Ride, I took Carla's arabian mare 'Traverston Batique'. She was amazing, I had soo much fun.

Turned out that at the end we ended up with 1st place, I'm so proud of that little mare, she has a heart of gold. I ended up with a giant ribbon, and a brand new halter, vetrap, and a seringe. I can't belive how much fun we had, and we ended up with a final score of 4.25 , and 0 is a prefect. The only reason we ended up with...
