Magpie in Bare boots
Sunday, 13 April 2008

We took Magpie and Polly out for a short hack yesterday for about an hour. Magpie was wearing the Bare Boots and she was fantastic. She was like a dressage horse!! She was so light on her feet and was lifting her front feet beautifully.

Broken Horse
Tuesday, 08 April 2008

I met Tommy and current owners out for a walk today. He is now shod again and was a bit prancy. According to 'expert' owner, he is 'ruined' and it's all down to him not wearing iron shoes for the past 7 months!!

I was so mad but in my opinion it just proved how ignorant he is. Maybe he was just trying to justify the paltry 500 EURO he has to pay for the horse that he orginally sold for 2,500 EURO

This is the same fella that likened a horse wearing hoof boots to a human wearing heavy diving boots (could/would cause pulled muscles)!!

Parelli 2008 UK
Wednesday, 02 April 2008
Parelli is back to the UK again this year. I went last year and it was a great weekend. It was too full days of information and entertainment. It wasn't just a show, it was information, information, information!! I found myself wiping away a tear and smiling both in equal doses many times during the two days. I was both elated and exhausted at the end of it. Tickets bought, flights and hotels booked for this year. Can't wait to go back again in August!!

Polly is Home
Wednesday, 26 March 2008
My Polly is home!! I sold Polly to make room for Tommy but I was never really happy about selling her and missed her so much. The idea was to get a bigger horse and maybe do a few competitions. Expert friends had convinced me that I needed a bigger horse and my little horses would not suit.

Tommy has Gone
Wednesday, 26 March 2008
Was getting on well with Bare boots and Tommy was getting fitter by the day. Unfortunately, I was getting less confident on him as he got fitter and faster. Took him out last Saturday on a short hack. He was totally sound!! BUT I had no communication with him!!

Easy-Up Buckles Update
Monday, 18 February 2008
Doh! Realised I had the Easy-Up Buckles on upside down! Clue should have been in the name...Watched the  video of putting on the Epic boots which are similar to the Bare and the buckle clips down the way so I thought the Easy-Up would operate the same. See what thought done!!
