Idag var Maria ute och red Percy som blev jätteglöad över att få komma ut.

We had some snow and it stayed a couple of days in the darkest corners. |
Tuesday came with better weather and a lot of horses that needed work. I long reined them all except Bunny. She tried the yoga trick again – and managed to do it properly! About half an hour work for all the others was perfect. Pepper worked really nice a short time – and then didnät have the power any more. That made me believe even more in some kind of muscle soreness/accident. Percy worked nicely in the bitless bridle but didn’t really like that I started to want her to to haunches in. She has a lot of go, but better to stop before she gets bored. Calinka worked lightly to help with the muscle soreness and that went ok. A good evening.
Today Maria brought Percy out for a trail ride so Percy got very happy.

Please let us in and let us work! (I had brought Calinka in). |
Isac and I was home alone during Monday, and against his will we went to the stable.But, when in the stable he wanted to help feeding the horses and ride… But after 5 minutes he was tired and told me that I should ride (so I got rid of his saddle and got on the horse back bare back) After 5 more minutes he was tired and wanted me to quite but Calinka had just started to warm up. After 10 minutes I put the saddle back at Calinka and Isac rode back to the stable. He is starting to learn to start and stop now – if the horse is kind enough to cooperate…
Tuesday wasn’t my best day – I had preferred to go to bed instead and not out in the cold. But when I got there I got energy by long reining Pepper that behaved perfectly. He has also started to gait again. I hope that doesn’t mean that he is in pain, but that he has started to get the required strength. To be on the safe side I decided to put a rug on him – as I suspects that he has strained himself in the slippery ground.
Percy also worked very well while long reininge. She really likes the bitless bridle. But, she isn’t a big fan of standing still… Bunny was more nervous that usually, but very content when I prepared her for long reining. I tied her in the stall and then let her se and feel the reins behind her back and on her body. She didn’t care a bit! Of course, doing something like this one have to be careful not to injure neither horse nor human. Now she is ready to long rein for real if I only get someone to help me the first time. I think that long reining can be a good activity during pregnancy and can also be a preparation for driving a cart.

The rug fits like a charm and matches her color. |

Percy’s pony rug. She has nearly outgrown it, but she is so sweet in it. |

It is hard to get the Rockies back in the pasture… They just want to cuddle and investigate everything. |
