Betty & Gigi - Kate's Asses

Yes, more asses. These belong to my Dressage instructor, Kate. Betty and Gigi are named for their former owner's relatives. Go ahead and insert your joke here regarding your own relatives.

I have now decided that I'd like at least five of these little guys, because why not? Then I'll have a much better chance of finding at least one ass with both hands...

Bree & Pecos

What a gorgeous horse! Paints are always nice, but this one is really flashy! Of course, Bree is pretty cute too, and her relationship with Pecos is really sweet. Although some of our help was unavailable, we did have some, well, 'ass'istance from Peco's pasturemates:

Special thanks to Dr. Hoelscheur of Country View Vet Service and his wife for the use of their facility even though I didn't really get the beer I was promised... maybe next time? :)

MARES Meeting at Gibson Training Center

Whew! What a week! Although the weather since has been horrible, the meeting, held Saturday, April 5th, had beautiful weather and great presentations by Kirk Dailey of Purina, Gary Gibson of Gibson Training, and Dr. Judy Batker of Country View Vet Service. There was a huge turnout! The presenters gave away lots of door prizes too - I got a cool horse shampoo that attaches directly to a hose. Can't wait for the first bath of the year! I bet I'll be wearing all the dirt that comes off my horse!

The next MARES meeting is Tuesday, May 13th at Three Gaits, featuring Susan Peterson of Kindred Spirits Equine Massage. Who doesn't love a good massage?
