Training Log

Jill rode for exactly half an hour, in the copper snaffle, in the arena this morning before work. He was great -- it was worth the hauling-her-butt-out-of-bed-to-hurry-around-like-a-fool effort.

Stone was easy to catch (and messed up his stall instead of the hall before she groomed him). Good boy!

They just did dressage work -- lots of longer canters, some counter canters, and lots and lots of down transitions. He was very good. She knew they were definitely improving! Jill could hardly wait for her next dressage school with her coach so as to get more feedback on what to practice.

He looks a little nerdy with his short bangs. His feet are very dry and the right front looks crooked and too long. But, no thrush, and not a single cough.
