Do you have a moment or experience at a show or with your horse
that brings goose bumps or lump in your throat of joy when you think about??
I have a few.. one of them....
I took my mare Semi to the Julep cup, to show in halter.
She gets off the trailer.. flagging her tail and being herself..
Peas laughed and said, you should put her in Liberty... so we did.
She went in that ring, all 29" of her and flagged her tail and did this HUGE
animated trot all over.. LOL then... went right over to the Judges box,
head up high, breathing hard... and blew and snorted and stood there
to have her halter put on. It was amazing! AND she did it again at
the East Coast Championship Show. Gets me everytime I think about it
and she won both times LOL Such a precious little mare.
Another.. My stallion Little John,, was pretty mean to me in the ring. He just
HATED it and would strike and bite and kick.. being my very first halter horse..
needless to say,, I didn't think a whole lot of showing... LOL (he is fine at home)
I took him in this huge halter class, like 27 horses.. nervous,, just knowing he would try to get me... and with that many horses.. we would be in there for a long time.....
I was spring loaded.. just knew it was coming any second....
He was PERFECT, stood there with his ears up, never moved.... and won the class.
You could have knocked me over with a feather. I was So proud of him.
I called home,, to tell my family what the ornery boy just did,, but eveytime I tried
to speak,, I started crying....
(He was retired shortly after.. LOL went right back to his tricks...)
Please share your amazing experiences!
