No we don't know how to jump...we are just having fun. ;)

I know this video isn't anything special...
Just wanted to share her progress. This is her vey first time with a bit in her mouth. She was really funny at the beginning, making faces and sticking her tongue out. After few minutes she stopped. Took her a while to get used to it, so she is not herself in this video. She is finally figuring out the third gait though. I'm so glad the mud finally dried up. Now we are expecting snow this Saturday! Got to enjoy the nice weather while it's here!

I just love watching you and Crystal and your progress! You both are doing so well, and really understand each other.

Thanks everyone. I'm lucky to have her. She sure was easy to break. Our other horses are nothing like her. She would do anything to please me.

We have 5 dogs...the rest are JRs. Yes, all the horses are used to dogs. They figured out it's fun to make the dogs mad, so they purposely hang in front of the dog house when they get bored and make the dogs bark. The only one who is being driven crazy here is me, because silly horses take their time and I have to listen to 5 dogs barking like insane! I'll have to get it on video one of these days...

Hehe Hopi does that too. She stands in front of the fence and lowers her head right at the dog's level and goes "nanananana I'm on the other side of the fence and you can't get me!" It makes the dogs so mad, they just bark and bark and bark at her.

Crystal looks like a super great mount, I'm glad she worked out for you so well. :)
