Well this weekend was a busy one for me, Shaun was working all day sat, and off to the car racing in Ashburton Sunday.
Sooo Sat I got the dreaded gardening done!! arghhh hate that stuff, but looks better for being done.
Then did some work with the babies, They have both been mouthed but Abbie was sure she hadnt been at Dys the other week, so they both had a spin in the round pen with the lunge roller and loose side reins.
Ben was his normal perfect self, Abbs had a few tanties, but got over them... to finish after I had taken their gear off I walked then over the hill at the back of the garage (well mound)... Abbie went to hoon up past me, but I turned and looked at her and she stopped... Fantastic as this was a horse who would try to barge into/past when she felt like it....
Billys eye has been sore since his bute has worn off and he is jumpy and uncomfortable... so I am looking at trying him on some devils claw....
Sunday I lonreined both the babies, Ben again was perfect.... took him into the jumping paddock and had him going nicely around (not over) the jumps and walking over some poles on the ground.... we even had reasonable brakes and had a wee trot...
Abbie, did exactly what I expected and threw a tanty... however she soon clicked out of irt, and was then perfect! turning beautifully and even managing some nice halts... all the while in a natural head carage, looking very pretty... No trotting for her, but she was also walking over poles on the ground, and eyeing up the jumps!!
Billy had a run in the pen and his eye cleaned and zapp ed with the light again (twice) on Sunday.. he picked the yellow lens this time, so we will see how it goes...
Will ring the vet again today and see if she can come and have a look again... still no bill either...
