Sammy is over her cold, and is steadily shedding all of her winter hair to reveal her nice black summer hair. We have finally gotten a REAL saddle that fits her, a new Bob Marshall. Sammy also has a new friend.
An old friend of mine has finally gotten some spare time and wants to ride again. She is much smaller than I am so she is a perfect fit for Sammy. She came out on Monday and worked with her for the first time. It was fantastic! Sammy took up with her and easily did all the things she had done with me. MF was very impressed by Sammy's willingness and want to please.
They started in the round pen and then moved out to the barn lot
and then finally they moved out to the area where we do most of our riding. This is her following her Dam around the outside of the field.
It is quickly approaching 1 year that Sammy has been home. There have been lots of worrisome days but she is over all of that now.
Just look at her go.
