Prior and Proper Preparation

Sara falling asleep, waiting for her chiropract.

Sara and I have been having a lot of fun lately. We’ve begun trotting under saddle, using the follow the rail pattern, figure-8 and weave. She also seems to enjoy pushing the big green ball. We’re adding trotting with the ball to our list of “Can Do’s!” I have only been able to ride maybe two days a week but we do our best to make the most of it.

Today, Sara’s chiropractor came to adjust her. After a brief bareback ride, Sara stood tied for a solid 45 minutes! My RBE was falling asleep, waiting for her turn. The chiropractor, Dr. Dawn, was very pleased with Sara and had to make minimal adjustments. She said she wasn’t sore at all in the saddle area, which is thrilling for me to hear!
