Hi pony people,
I was out getting pictures today of my dads ridding pony. Dads had this pony a little over a year, he bought it for the girl pictured. She helps me with the Minis and cleans stalls for us, grooms ext. She is 12yrs old and loves ridding horse, she is a fellow horse lover. I have a 'big horse' friend and when i go over their i always take her along so she can ride my friends big horses, boy this girl loves to ride. So dad bought her this pony, exept when dad got him he was pretty green. Crystal and i put in allot of time, i did allot of reining and working with him w/ draw reins ext from the ground and crystal did the work from the saddle. I bought a book on training a horse to ride and over the past yr we have taken him from very green to where he is today, we're both very proud!!!! He is my fathers horse but crystal and i are his main handlers and trainers since dad is almost never home. He is built so much like a classic exept his head is more 'stock' type.
How does he look? I'm in no way a person who knows much about ridding but i think Crystal (who did most of the work BTW lol) and i did decent, he is very safe to ride ...this past year was allot of work though.
He is 45'' as well. His name is Jimmy ....here is Crystal ridding him today. You can tell in some of the pics i've had draw reins on him lol. In the last two trotting pictures this was toward the end of their ride and he was getting pretty worn out so his headset is pretty bad.
PS: Dad has him for sale
:
If he isnt sold by spring time i told dad that i want to keep him and let Crystal show him next year locally.
Sorry they are so blurry, we were in my dads pasture and its so hard to get a good picture over their, i had to zoom way in.
