In order to show my appreciation of your support, I may be giving some halters away... ;).
If you saw my post from yesterday, I will have lots of horse show pictures coming soon! Unfortunately, I found out my new camera does not like the indoors. Some pictures are blurry or dark or both, so it may take me a mintute to go through all 700 of them and pick our the good ones. But, I promise those will be coming soon!
In the meantime, here is me at age 7 with my very first horse, Velvet, a PMU rescue! I had him from a few months old (we still had to feed him milk 3 times a day!) until he was about 3 or 4 years old. I knew nothing about horses when I picked him out. At the time I had been riding for about 2 years, but was only learning how to ride, not any horse education. I bought him because he would be black and he sure was. He was so big and beatiful and had such a great heart. To let me run around his legs and climb over his back and walk him around like a dog...that took patience from a foal his age. When he turned three we took him to an old trainer down the road who said told me he was a Tennesse Walker and would never ride like I wanted to. Since I was only allowed to have one horse at a time, we sold him. Looking back now, I really wish I would have kept him. He was such a great horse; so very special.
Aw, Velvet was lucky to have you. I wonder what became of him.
