I am so lost without a pony.
Mattie is astonished at being taken for so many walks, having his legs washed, his bits scratched and his last bits of winter fluff expunged. He seems quite happy and very affectionate but I miss Ziggy, who was either sick and needing care or well and needing things to do.
I've got this hankering for a young horse, because riding has always been relatively low on my fun list - I love the handling, groundwork and long reining the most - and I have to say I'm getting lots of encouragement. I wouldn't mind waiting 4 years for a ride at all - there are dozens of horses looking for sharers in our area if I want to keep up what skills I have. But honestly I don't have a clue.
Two who are on my mind at the moment:
This mare - beautiful, grown up, but 16hh eek!
And this filly:
Not a grown up but I think she looks adorable.
Come on, just give me your reactions.....
