Horses
Name: Natalie
Your
Name: Emily
Horses
Age: 10 (roughly)
Breed:
Cob
Height:
13.2hh
How
long have you had your horse?: i have owned her
for 2 years and rode her for a friend for 2 years
before that.
What
is the best thing about your horse?: she is my
first horse and i have
been so lucky! its been great to school her from virtually
nothing to a
stage where we can start doing dressage competitions.
I am lucky that she is
such a pleasant character to work with, she is always
willing to try things
for me and tends to stay calm, but can also have a
moody streak which i like
as it gives me a little bit of a challenge to work
with!!!
What
is the worst thing about your horse?: in an absolutely
ideal world i
woudl like her to be a hand bigger (preferably with
longer legs!!!). All the
others at the yard are 16hh plus, so hacking out means
i have to trot most
of the way to keep up! can be a little bit sore on
my bum. Character wise i
wouldnt want to change anything
Do
you and your horse compete? We did a couple of
little shows a few years
ago, but nothing since then, am hoping to start dressage
over the winter.
Overall
thoughts about your horse: she is absolutely brilliant,
really
pretty (although of course i am biased!) and we have
learnt so much from
each other. We know each other inside out, which makes
scary nasties a hell
of a lot easier to deal with!!!
