And George, the horse i love, he's 6 , 15.1 , gawjus, friendly and so funny. I put a hge bed down for him while he was at the back of the stable drinking, instead of coming all the way around the pile of straw i was putting down, he tried to walk through it, it came up well over his knees and he just stood in it looking at me. it was really funny, he wanted his hay but couldn't understand why there was a pile of straw in the way hehe xD

I got to drive this pony at the therapy stables i work at, it was so much fun! i took my mum around the track, then took a guy with cp aroud.
zahre was an ass today, she took off with me and i was bareback out on a trail ride. I could not stop her i was so scared. so i got angry and lunged her till she started to calm down, i think i'll use a bit again, i was in a bosal today (like a hackamore but more like a halter)

i'd love to learn to drive horses! there is one pony i met, Arrow, he can trot up to 32 mph!! he is so quick, i was with them when they clocked that speed on him, he's beauty as well!
we ride most of our horses in snaffles, one mare has a dutch gag in atm tho b/c she is being way to stong and she is so full of herself.

i love arabs! I have my mare in a french link d-ring. she likes it i think. we had this awesome myler like bit that was covered in sweet iron. she loved that one till it snapped out of its little roller thing while i was riding. (oops) i don't use anything but a snaffle on the horses. mainly because in dressage any other bit is looked down upon.
I live in a city too rusty, we just do a lot of driving from my competion barn (30 mins from the house) to the barn i keep my horse at in the middle of the city (weird i know but it didn't use to be in the middle of the city, thats how much el paso has grown in the last 100 years. its 15 min from the house) and the barn i work at (which is a therapy barn 50 min from the house and over a mountain. ) and we have a slight gas guzzling vehicle toooo.
