Thanks so much for that Jess!  She is a real sweetie. I also have her brother, who is further behind in his training. He's 5 next week. But.... I have just found out that I can leave him 3 weeks and just get on and ride, with no silliness. So that was really cool! His 'big' issue is that he's a real licker! Licks me constantly- more after I ride. He has salt etc, so I don't think that's it. I was thinking maybe he likes my soap?  So my hard part is trying to convince my husband I don't need to sell either! I bred him for my daughter, who moved away, and I do feel he's the better moving horse (not that I ever tell Delphi that!).  Thanks again.

Thats so cool that you bred her, I bet your proud of the little mare! I see heaps of the top hacks at Nationals and the Royals etc but I still see beauty in horses like yours, kind and honest! Love Her!!

Don't know if I wish to sell her though. I bred her and have done everything with her- starting, showing etc. She is improving. Some are slower to develop the strength over their back I believe. Thanks for your ideas Jess

Thats true, but a horse that is safe and goes along with an even pace and without fuss is priceless as a childs hack. Or even with adults. Unless you want to go further.
