Another update. No refusals, no bucking and moving nicely off leg.

Way to go! Looks like Mr. Porky has lost some weight too! Would that be, Thanks to Oprah and Weight Watchers? Or do you have other horsie diet secrets?

He sucks in his gut when trotting, if you're talking about from his other recent pictures.

If you're talking about from last summer, winter helps a lot. Nothing for him to eat but hay. And they have a pasture paradise track system now, so limited green and they have to move around their whole yard instead of sitting in the center getting fat.

Rode my donkey today. Whoopsies, I mean horse.

100% believe it was my fault now. I didn't get after him properly, so it only escalated.

Flip a coin. Heads you keep him. Tails you sell him. The thiught that enters your head when the coin is in the air is what you want most.

Seriously though my horses are huge money pits, they suck me dry some months. However, I've had two of them over ten years and wouldn't trade them for anything in this world. My husband's horse? I'd sell him given the chance. He's dangerous, Moody, aggressive, had terrible manners, and odds 18 hands of pushy. He knows he's big and uses it against you. My crazy mare is nothing compared to him. If the horse is doing you no good then why are you keeping him? I at least get to ride my mares. It may not be often, May be few and far in between, but I get pleasure out of owning them.

I like the horses you have just to give you some credit. You would regret giving them away just as a side note. Therese :barnie
