Moon loves dressage.

25.jpgMoon and I have a new best dressage score. At our last show we received a 25.

Several people commented to me afterwards how happy and relaxed Moon looked during our test. We then had a clean stadium and were feeling really good.

Cross country is always the challenge, and Moon stopped twice. So, we finished the show in 4th, but felt really good about the show. Our next show is this coming weekend, and I can't wait.

This week I have to pull Moon's mane, which isn't his favorite thing. We've been having great lessons, and the weather is perfect, not too hot yet. He moved to a new stall at the barn, with his own run, and still gets turned out into the large pasture for about half the day. He seems like a happy horse, which makes me a happy person!

I am currently building a new arena, and unsure which surface to get. I've been in contact with a company called 'equestrian direct' ? Don't know if this sound familiar to you.

All the best with your horse riding.

woah! 25 that's awesome!! you did a lot better than me and chino ( friends horse i borrowed for the dressage rally) what i would do to get a better score is to make sure you capture the energy created from the hindquaters with the reins and get him to gently press his face against the brick wall ( theoretically speaking) and you should check out Mary Wanless i think she would be able to help you guys a lot here's her website

Your blog is really great, I wish I had one of those horses by the way, I liked the post with the snail :P
Is there anything about horses you don't know! You seem like a brilliant horse expert! Moon is lucky to have someone who cares so much.
