Hey GUYS!!!!
I know its been a while, a couple months in fact, but I've recently started LSU (tho I'm bout to transfer to LA tech since I changed my major f/ pre-vet to wildlife conservation w/ an equine minor (game warden : ) )....and don't have to stay @ LSU anymore....Anyway, alot has gone on....
Remember Faithers, well "faith". That scrawny little 4 yr old I bought 2 years ago that yall told me would end up w/ "green + green=black and blue.." Well, its been 2 years since then, and crazy, wild, uneducated little bay filly is now 6 yr old, bombproof, spookproof, down to earth, pony-ridin,barrel racin, cow cuttin, handle like a dream, trail ridin(we go w/ the mules, LOL), log jumpin, log pullin,tarp draggin, dog haulin,barebackin, double ridin, deer huntin(much more) and most of all, the most amazing horse I've ever owned. We've learned together, and thought I might as well post some before and after pics.....and maybe get some critiques (if u don't mind) and comments : ) I look forward to them.......
I was, b/c of college, at one point going to sell her, but she's worth more that people were wanting to give for a bombproof adult/kids horse w/ an amazing set of papers...I was asking 2000$.
anyway, to the pics and video, and Please, I had just gotten back from a dressy occastion, didn't even bother to take the shirt off, grabbed some jeans,a nd held on. And yes, split reins, and yes, I am no jumper, but she loves it : )
Before (2 yrs ago)
Back when we could not keep weight on her for the world(before switching to XTN):




Now

Video:

2 weeks ago : ) : ) : )



I'm trying to make her into somewhat of a barrel horse for rodeoing/play days (now that I'm going to LAtech in the spring, I have someone to rodeo w/ during the summer in north LA w/ a trailer...not looking to win $$, just have fun, ) I know its not much to go off of, but do yall think she's doing all right so far...?
