We had a lovely ride on Thursday, a proper "training" ride, on a circle, transitions and a bit of "work"! He coped brilliantly.
Got another ride today, just a wee one as he's busy shedding such a huge worm burden and still getting daily wormer but conned Pete to grab the camera and get a shot or 2 ...
Mac hasn't settled back into his "work" we're fighting his tension, if he would just relax he'd find it soooooo much easier, he knows this but still he fights LOL.
He fought so much on Tuesday at our lesson that for the first time in 5 1/2 yrs I hit him! (On the neck we don't do whips!) and it shocked him so much he pulled his head in and worked nicely for the last 5 mins of our lesson that went overtime! grrrrr AND we have dressage this weekend! oh hell.....
Anyway here are a couple of quick shots of him on our ride on Monday, Pete is so not horsey, I jump on and there he is with the camera, get it over and done with so he can get back inside, so they're not flattering, but Mac doesn't need to be flattered, he's just gorgeous any old time!
and lastly, how's this for cute??? Dozer and PeeWee...

Oh a dun, my first pony ever was a dun, I'm still smitten. Your dogs are great too (mastiffs?).
I remember my first ribbon day (I was about 13 so going back a while now) wondering if we got prizes just for having a pretty horse - I was rather naive back then, smartened up fairly quickly. I was also biased, he had a lovely face but was a tubby uncooperative so and so.
Hi Guilty Mum, I loooooooove duns, the only reason I bought Mac hehehe, he is so purdy! He had to be a dun or I wouldn't have bought him at the time... was meant to be :o)
Yes those 2 tubbos are bull mastiffs. You're forgiven for thinking that at 13, when I was 13 that would have been the truth, the pretty ponies won hehehe.
