Does Rumour have an electric fence around him when he's in his pasture?
Yep but it's not always turned on
@TwoInTailoreds 100% mine. She said the stubben one specifically (more like scuba material as opposed to the professional choice neoprene) would pinch and irritate him. I'm such a weenie, so to avoid confrontation I returned it ?
Because he's in moderate work. Pretty much all the horses at our barn eat it to keep their weight up! ?
Could you guys do a live stream soon?!
Yeah I think we might do one Wednesday night!
You have to see the Harry Potter polo wraps on Instagram! They are on "The_Preppy_Polo"
Haha OMG those are awesome! Our trainer would probably die if we put those on Rumour though! ?⚡️
@TwoInTailoreds Yea it was the weirdest thing..I bought a neoprene stubben girth. She seriously wouldn't let me use it and said to return it. I rode western before and swore by professional choice. When I crossed over to English, it was like learning an entirely new language.
How do you like your ventech girth? My trainer gives me the stink eye when I mention getting anything other than leather/sheepskin ?
We love it so much! Really!? Aha that's funny. I thought most trainers didn't like sheepskin girths because they can make it hard to keep your leg on properly. Everyone has their preferences but if you like sheepskin I think you would love the ventech girth because it's super soft and stretchy for the horse's comfort but is low profile so it won't get in the way like a sheepskin girth. Just my opinion. ? It's also 100 times easier to clean!!
what would you pay for this horse:
mare, 9 years old,16hh has done dressage including tests, and has jumped up to 80cm with me.good to trail ride and has very good ground manners ridden up to 6 days a week
It depends where you live but in our area a horse like that might go for between $4000-$10000 maybe?! ?
If love if you could check out my live stream with @HeadOverHooves we would love more views☺️☺️☺️??
Everybody watch it!!! Right now!??
Does Rumour get grain?
Yep step 8 and beet pulp twice a day!
How often do you(will) show?
Probably only a couple times a year!
Goals for 2016 in riding?
Just be better at riding in general!
Suggestions for calming show nerves?
Try not to have high expectations. If you go with the mindset that you just want to have fun and learn new things with your horse you don't have as much to be nervous about! Also, just be prepared.
Fave is grey, least fave is orange. If you meant colour of horse, I like them all!! ?
What is the worse thing that you worked through with your horse?
He used to do this thing where he would pull his head down in the canter to make you unbalanced/pull the reins out of your hand but he learned pretty quick that it didn't work! ??
What is the best thing that has happened to you during your riding journey?
whoever said that their horse bucks into their canter, my friends horse kept doing that and she would only do it when we went to the left. she could be a little soar or feel uncomfortable going that way. :)
Yes I agree,bucking when going into the canter can be a sign of pain or soreness in your horse. It can also be behavioural, and a way for them to try to get out of cantering if you let them stop when they buck.
OMG YOU NEED TO DO A ROOTD BEFORE I DIE WITH ALL YOUR NEW STUFF ASAP???
??
Do a ROOTD!
Okay! ?
What riding backpack would you want to get?
I don't want one!
I'm watching a Harry Potter marathon!⚡️
What a good idea ?⚡️
What camera do you use?
Canon G7X for vlogs, Canon t3i for everything else
