Here is a pic of my horsey....Valentina. She was a pasture mare for a few years and I decided that she was going to waste. So, I sent her off to a wonderful trainer and realized it is one of the best things I've done in a long time! I owned her dam for 10 years and loved her dearly. But, when I went off to college I decided it would be best for her if I found her a new home. Now, she lives her life as a happy children's hunter about an hour away. Valentina is doing amazingly well in her training. She has never bucked, balked, or shied away from anything. Because her progress has been so great she will start showing this fall! Of course I'm going to let the trainer show her the first few times! Her first few shows will be in Katy near Houston. So, it will give me more incentive to go visit my mom! Maybe I can convince her to take some time off of work to come watch? Anyways, sorry for blabbing. I'm just excited to have the chance to ride and have my own horse again. Here are some before and after pics! I'll post some of her first show pics when the time comes :D ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() **Bottom pic is her before and all of the above pictures are recent** She looks sooo much better! |

Nice pictures! How fun - I assume that is you riding? Sounds like it was a great decision! Good luck with the shows - western pleasure or something else? Thanks for sharing!

I do love my horsey! I actually wanted her to be a Western Pleasure horse. But, she moves more naturally as a hunter. So, that's what I'll be doing with her. She just hasn't made the 'transition' up to the hunter saddle. But, I'll be riding her in one full-time after she moves into a kimberwicke. The trainer prefers to work horses in his western saddle because it is more comfortable. I don't care as long as I get to ride her! |
