    Default Update on my craigslist pony

    So if any of you remember, I bought the really cute grey pony off of Craigslist a few months ago.

    http://i.imgur.com/Ju2BJ.jpg

    My life has been a bit busy, so pony (and her blog, that I promised I would keep updated) has kind of been sitting for the past few months. I got her started, but she's only had approximately 10 rides including today's since I got her in August.

    Well, in only ten sporatic rides she is walking, trotting, cantering (sort of) and going over poles willingly. Today, we were trying to get a few pictures/videos and I set up a little vertical to pop her over while free lunging.

    This was the result:

    We also decided to pop her over a few small jumps with me on her back as well and she was a rock star! Trotted over them like she has been doing it her whole life, and even cantered over a little flowerbox vertical!

    Just had to brag...this pony is going to make some little girl VERY happy some day...maybe I will just get pregnant so I have an excuse to keep her

    Good job. Still such a cutey. Imagine how nice "pony" will be when you get the time to work her full time.

    Thanks for the update, I'd been wondering about her!

    Thanks everyone! She really is a very special little pony. I will definitely have mixed feelings when she sells.
