Today i decided what a wonderful day it was to spend more time with indie, she is in her own
paddock now (GREAT!) so i dont have to worry about charcoal stealing her feed and hay anymore, brought indie out, gave her a groom and found what looks like mudfever on her heels of her back legs, it could explain why shes so touchy about me picking up her back legs, will get onto it tomorrow and treat it. i was gonna lunge her but i thought nah i want to do something different, i want to expose her to as many different places as i can so hopefully when it comes to doing shows it wont be such a big deal, i took her to the jumps paddock , of course she was on her toes as shes never been here, but no big deal, she didnt do anything wrong, and i let her have a sniff and a look over and round the big scary jumps, even mentioned to her that " you ll be doing these jumps in no time ", she didnt seem to mind ! i decided ill put out a caveletti as i have not see her jump and dont really know what she can do yet. she walked over the caveletti without a care in the world :), then i asked her trot and she jumped it, nice and big and she didnt spook or anything, what a great start for her, she mite have a good future as a sjer !
just need to get ontop of my farrier, so hard to get ahold of one , not to mention they seem
to find excuses why they cant come out for weeks or months !! still debating weather to
pull indies shoes or not, kinda do want to but on the other hand im a bit worried about a crack
in her front foot, oh well ill talk to the farrier when one comes out and see what they think, would rather be safe then sorry
