@Hime: She swings her head because she wants more reign. She has a very soft mouth and even when i let her walk on a loose reign she still continues.

Weird question but does anyone have a theme song for there horse. Mine is the instrumental Call Me Maybe.

I just got some really good ideas. Since a lot of are making lovely threads for our beloved horses and want art for them, I was thinking of maybe around the holiday times we could do a secret santa sort of thing where someone can run it and then we just randomly get assigned someone that we can make art of their horse for <3 I think it would be a good way to get art and make someone smile. It could be any form of art too like a poem, drawing, painting, song, clay model, etc.

Also, I was thinking about maybe making a CS show team where we can post about all of our showing accomplishments and and like keep a log of the shows we do and stuff. Just a thought though (:

That is a good idea! C: I can't wait!

And I also think that the show team is a good idea, I'm just not sure that enough people on here show regularly enough for it to be active. I mean, you show a lot, and some others show occasionally, but I think that most of the riders don't show a lot...


Oh, and I had a video on the last page that I'd love for you to watch/possibly crit, even though I look awful, lol

[Kickin' up dirt]

I love that idea. I for one love art of my horse. And I like the show idea too :3

Gonna barrel race later,maybe.

@Hano: I'm glad you like the idea! I thought of it yesterday and I wanted to find out what you guys thought about it ;D We would need someone to run it, but whoever would run it wouldn't be able to participate (unless we can think of a way) since the person you get isn't supposed to know who got them. Anyways, we should just discuss the details but we still have time. I jsut think it would be a fun way to get art and recieve some nice comments on your horsie :3

Well it wouldn't necessarly have to be active, but since I saw that people show at different times it may work. I was just thinking that there may not be enough people and I don't mean to offend anyone that doesn't show or show often. Sorry if it came off that way, I really didn't mean it like that.

Yes, I did watch the video! I ment to say something about it, sorry. At the posting trot it looks like you are pulling yourself out of the saddle a bit, but hey I understand since in the video that Mully is being lazy I look the same way ;-; And I have never looked like that before P: Also, as you may know, you hands move around quite a bit. At the canter you seem to be pumping just a bit with your seat too. Other than that you and Kat look great <3

@VanillaMocha: Thanks so much! I'm so glad you love the idea too ;D

Gr! The girl across the street from ROS (Rose of Sharon is where I irde aka ROS) and she has 2 horses Buck and Rita. They are curently starting to teach Rita to be a hunter jumper horse and she lost a ton of wieght (Was fat now healthy) by grazing muzzles, so last night was her first time in a english saddle and EVERYONE was saying how she looked exactly like Rainy. My lesson teacher even said they had almost the same trot. They do not look the same! Rainy is more of a solf, deep, setting sut chestnut, and Rita is a way more light smooth charmally chestnut. And their stars are different Rainy's is more of a fading shooting star and Rita's is a small cirlce. Why can't anyone see how much Rainy hates her too! They just say "oh she hates every one(Horse)" But if they were riding her they would know Rainy wounldn't even get within 10 feet of her with out ginding her teeth to a pulp. Gah! I love Rainy and I did have an awesome rid yesterday. But I dislike rita's looks... I liked it better when she was fat and western.

Secret santa! Cutest idea ever! I'd love to be part of that.

Hano's right about a lot of people not showing, but it could be extended to a horse log in general...not for every lesson, of course, but a compilation of the major stuff. :3

And here's another thought: I've been wanting for a while to do a collab with all the horses on this thread. You guys all know how a collab works...I might draw Rosie and add Hano to color in, she could put Kat in the picture and then add weibke to color in, etc. It might look nice on the front page, although I'm not sure if there are enough people who draw horses. :3

Hano, I loved both your picture and your video. I'm going to critique them both now, but keep in mind I absolutely loved them. I'm not critiquing 'cause I think they're bad. Mmkay? :3
The photo: the conformation only looks off 'cause of the shine in the eye. Move it up and back a little so the horse looks like he's looking off into the distance. A little detail to the ear wouldn't hurt either, but I have a feeling you were probably sick of drawing at that point. xD The nose is the best part--it's really beautiful.

The video: Aasl;dkfj backwards bending. That is, like, my ultimate pet peeve, probably because I'm so guilty of it. I know Kat is still a little green, though, so that can be proclaimed not your fault. :3 Other than that Dolphin is right about the pulling yourself out of the saddle at the trot...but that also could have been general stiffness and slowness on Kat's part. I love his canter. o_o You're really a talented rider!

I didn't go to the stable today, but I found something out that depressed me a little: Rose is listed on my stable's website as "for sale". I e-mailed my instructor about it (we e-mail. She's fairly young, and I consider her to be a friend as well as a teacher), and she said "Oh yeah. You didn't know that? Sorry, Flitter...I kind of assumed you had seen that before...we probably won't be carting her off any time soon, but she's a nine year old Thoroughbred. She may make a good lesson horse, but if a better home comes along...she deserves that. You can keep working with her as long as she's here, ok?"

I don't know what I'll do if Rose gets sold. There are only two other lesson horses at my stable, and one is just thirteen hands...I think I'd seriously consider leaving. I almost did when Max died, and if I lost Rose too, my stable just wouldn't have much for me. I'm not going to be all morbid, though...nothing has happened yet. So far, I'm fine. :3

Here's Rosie's sale ad:
Moonlight and Roses (Rose) is a sweet, 9 year old TB, ~15 h. She is uncomplicated w-t-c and loves to jump. Trail rides alone and with others. Quietly walks through the fields on the buckle. Currently in training.

And best of all! The ad comes with photos! They completely don't do Rosie justice, though...she has the prettiest, daintiest face in real life. And better conformation. But here they are...

Rose honey! You have your body at the weirdest angle!
Just admiring the pad and the indoor...
Another oh-come-on-you're-prettier-than-that moment.

I wish I could post more but I can't really. :C
-feels left out.
You guys also seem to have fantastic facilitys and ect.. I don't really So unfair.

[tiny]

guys! guys! I have super exciting news, I will respond to everyone asap, as well c:

The person I lease Charm from has just signed the lease on a place a couple houses down from where we're at now- it's a nine stall barn with indoor plumbing ;-; it needs cleaning up, but she wants to get group trail rides, lessons, and boarding going for at least a year and I MIGHT GET TO WORK THERE.

;u; aaaah. It's my dream to have my job be with horses. I will pester Charm's owner until she gives me a job- she said it was a possibility. X3
