New pics of the horses

Well we were playing with the horses today and here are some pics of them. I ponied Indy off of Fox today. Indy is fun to pony. He just followed right along. It helps Fox be more forward because he's herd bound. Here's some pics. One of them is me practicing the cones on Fox.


I just love Indy's face in this one.

That does look like fun! My horse likes to pony "his" colt along too. Indy has an adorable face.

Well thank you everybody. I should have done this a long time ago but I have never thought of it. Here's a link to my blog. I created it last year and I don't have very many followers since nobody really knows about it. But here it is alexangulliver.blogspot.com/

I've never seen pics of Indy before, he's cute!

Great pictures, Alexa! Have I seen Indy before? Is he new?

Hi David -- Indy is our 10-year-old Arab gelding that we talked to your dad about that has the rearing problem. It's actually not a problem 99% of the time - in an arena or where he feels safe, he's fine - but if he gets scared or resistant for any reason, he goes up. I'm hoping to get him in with a trainer in the spring who can get him over it. It feels to me like just a lack of a good "go forward" button, and I really think we can overcome it. If not, he's fun to play with in the arena anyway -- or anywhere he feels safe.

He's very sweet and docile, very mannerly, etc., and I think he's worth putting some time into. I would even place him in the right home, if one came along, as with my recent surgery on my foot (had some bones reconstructed with screws) I don't feel like I'm the one who can take him further. If you have any Arab enthusiast friends looking for a project, let me know!
