Well, it seems that Pip and I have finally arrived! We went out on a trail ride and Pip was great. One buck getting the canter, but I think this is due to the saddle somehow. Either the latigos are bugging him, or it's not fitting just right. Which is a drag, since I'd had it made for hi, but you know, that's the joy of putting a static thing on a living, dynamic animal. But I think my Aussie saddle will fit him just fine.
We're going up into the mountains next weekend, so we'll see how the two of us do with hills, dales and rocks!

About Me
- Pipkin
- I have a history of riding, but haven't done any formal riding since college. Since then, I bought my first rescue horse, an OTTB, who now lives with a woman who thinks the sun shines from his bum. And I own my first ever green horse I'm training. We're learning together, and I hope not learning too many bad habits! I also happen to be an attorney, but that's just to support my horse habit.
