The First Week!


Well Zippity has now been with us for one week. It has been fun to watch her with Ginger, Kuma (our dog) and the kids. I have been working on leading her around and backing her up. She is doing great and I am loving spending time with her. Tomorrow we will be changing her bandage, I look forward to see how it is healing up. I will post a new picture of it when I can.
I am so grateful to have Zippity and to learn how to work with a young horse. I know there may be times where I feel like I am getting no where, I will have to read my blog at those times to remind me of how far we have come. I wish I had spent more time with my grandfather and learned more about working with horses. I do recall some stuff he did with them and I will try to become a great horseman like my grandfather. I am very lucky to have great neighbors who are taking the time to help me with my project and I look forward to take in as much knowledge as I can. I am also grateful to my husband for allowing me to full fill my dream, I couldn't have done this without him.

  2. I think Ginger and Kuma enjoy Zippy as much as you do. Kuma is a great supervisor. Ginger a good support. you can't lose with help like that.

  3. So, how does her leg look? Did it heal well? By the time I see her she'll be completely trained! Congrats.
