2/27 Trail Ride

Joy and I went out to the house to ride yesterday. Abner was great, as usual. He was a little bit Fresh from not being ridden, but he behaved himself okay.

We were walking in the field by my house, and we went through what I thought was just a couple inches of snow- nope, it was a big snowdrift. Abner totally saved my butt. I panicked a little bit, but he turned himself around and jumped out of it- I just gave him his head.

We kept our ride to a walk and trot, but Abner kept thinking that he was a racehorse and wanted to speed away. We rode for about an hour and a half, and we went all over the place- Abner loved looking around at all the new stuff, especially the houses.

Here are some pictures of us inside the barn, he's looking pretty good! We're going to start working a lot more once the snow is GONE. (Can you tell I'm done with the snow...)

Aby's bow is getting so much better. It's so fun to have a trick pony!

Quick update..

Abner is doing great- I haven't been able to see him much because of the snow, but I went to the house with my friends Joy and Sean to grab my key, and we stopped by the barn.

Abner is being fed special Alfalfa hay that's Just For Him, which makes me laugh. He is getting his beautiful coat back, and Joy gave me some stuff to pour on his feed that will make his coat better too. He gets groomed every night, and seems to be loving living with us.

My friends think he is just the coolest horse, especially when I showed them his bowing trick! We also did some stretches, which we really need to work on to get him more supple and flexible.
