Three years since Breezy’s first rides
Three years ago, Breezy had her first baby rides. One of her first rides was actually a saddle test session. The saddle fitter noted that Kasane’s saddle wouldn’t fit Breezy and recommended Passier Compact. The local saddle shop had one in the right width, so I went and picked it up on trial. It fit Breezy great. My first ride on her was actually in the Passier. It was very comfortable. Too bad she outgrew it in a few months.
We spent months just getting her to move forward. I’d get on, and she wouldn’t move forward. She was like, “Hi Mom. I’m good. This is nice.” We would move in circles sometimes. I’d ask her to stretch around to get a treat. She was a very bendy mare.
We finally went into the big ring and put treats on barrels. And THEN she moved to every barrel and really walked out. She’s knock a barrel over if there wasn’t a treat on it. She’s come a long way.
