Rode again tonight. Bareback. It was a laugh. I never did much because I never wnated to hurt his back. He was covered in mud from head to toe when I got there and it took me a good half of an hour currying him to get him clean. Luckily he had his blanket on all day so it was just his neck, face and legs. I even had to curry his blanket  |

Sabrina is the worst, she is the dirtiest mare I know! She has to stay for at least 2 days prior to shows. Loves the mud

Nick dosn't get too dirty. Just every now and then you kind of have to search through the mud to find him... hahah |

Nick seems like the kind of horse that would gel his hair if he had thumbs. <3 michelle does he have back problems or you just don't wanna bounce around on it? I don't ride bareback much for that reason!

I have no other choice but to ride bareback on Tyra (for obvious reasons haha) and her back is fine! I'm sure a few bareback rides on Nick won't hurt him Unless he does have a back problems or something? I'm sure if I did ride Tyra almost every day, her back would start to hurt, but I only ride her every so often. Meh, who knows. Do what you want, love! |

No, no, no. Nick's back is perfect! Im just afraid if I bounce around on him too hard/much it MIGHT hurt him.

Lunged Nick this afternoon. He was a STAR! We warmed up, then did some walk-trot-walk transitions. Then canter. Did alot of canter-trot-canter transitions. We did about 5-7 walk-canter-walk transitions and he did all of them perfect, both directions! Lunged for about 30mins and he never even broke a sweat, he is coming back into shape beautifully  |
