Tucker’s First Fix-A-Test

OnTheBit from A Horse and a Half (who also did the fix-a-test with Lucky) was kind enough to video our test during the fix-a-test we did on Sunday, so you all can see how adorable Tucker is looking these days. I loved the Judge, Mindy Elgart.  She gave lots of helpful criticism but was extremely nice to all of us.

The Long-Awaited Tucker Update

Thumbnail

Let’s see… how to sum up how we’ve spent the end of winter and beginning of spring. As the winter progressed and Tucker got bored with seeing the four walls of the indoor, those four walls began hiding dangerous (read: imaginary) predators.

Happy birthday Tucker!

Thumbnail

Today is the Gorgeous Boy’s 11th birthday.  It is really hard to believe this picture was taken ten years ago: Or that this picture was taken eight years ago (his first summer of work!): Or even that this one was three years ago (our first summer in the Adult Hunters), feels like yesterday: Today is an extra special birthday for Tucker because it is also Kentucky Derby Day.

Jeff Cook Clinic Recap

Thumbnail

Wayyy back in November, Tucker and I took a lesson with Jeff Cook, one of my favorite trainers, at our friend’s beautiful farm, Stoneleigh (Tucker and I have farmsat there  a few times).  Since Tucker was just getting back to work after time off to recover from popping his splint, and wasn’t quite at his usual fitness level, we took it easy but still got some valuable feedback from Jeff, which I’ve been meaning to share with you. You may recall I was a little MIA for a while because of … [Read more...]

Adios 2012!

One last post this year… just for old time’s sake…  New Year’s Resolution: START BLOGGING AGAIN!

Tucker Fixes Everything!

Thumbnail

Wow.  I’m so sorry, I let the entire month of August go by without even a word.  I hope you’ve all enjoyed the end of your summers… I’m still in trial hell, but there’s light at the end of the tunnel at the moment, which means those of you who are still willing to follow along will be treated to much more frequent blog posts.  I promise!  I have about two more weeks of trial left, and then the dust should settle.

Revelations

Thumbnail

Don’t you hate when life gets in the way of your riding?  I’ve been defending a trial for one of my firm’s municipal clients which means, essentially, that I’ve been living at the office.  Now that the worst of it is over, I’ve come to some shocking revelations: 1.  I have a horse!  He’s really great, too.  Almost forgot about him…. 2.  I have a blog!  Two blogs, actually.  And there’s been nothing but tumbleweeds rolling around on here the past few weeks.  Sorry about … [Read more...]

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

After a week of relatively relaxed rides at the new-old barn. . . we had another not-so-great ride yesterday.  As you recall, I suspected a few weeks ago that Tucker may have been having a mid-life crisis .  Yesterday I had to get off and lunge the poor beast (on a really hot day, which I really hated doing to him), because he was spooking (at something that shouldn’t have been quite that scary) so badly that he was becoming unsafe, for both of us.  ( Read:  I do not trust my big clumsy … [Read more...]
