Avalon got a bath this week. This time I washed her with Dawn and it did a very good job on her mane and tail. She even let me hose her face. I think I'm going to wrap her tail in the fall after a few more good washes so that it will stop getting so dirty.
Tonight I worked with her in a saddle pad and surcingle and hope to attach long lines this week.
She is just absolutely thriving at this barn. She's covered in dapples and growing like a weed!
I feel like everything is coming together. With her, the barn, the job. The next step is finding a trainer to work with us on the ground and breaking her to drive. I won't be breaking her to ride until she is 3.5-4, but would like to find someone that will work with us consistently on the ground.
Congrats!!! That is awesome :)
ReplyDeleteIN late fall, I wrap up Shy's tail until spring. Keeps it clean and keeps the mud/ice out of it. It also grows a bunch. I do take it out a few times to brush and re-wrap.
Avalon is really looking good! Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much Allison!!!! I just absolutely love her. What do you use to wrap Shy's tail? I got a tail wrap but it is feels like pee, rain, etc will go right through it.
