Working on balancing turns towards jumps. Casey is getting a lot stronger at the canter, but still requires lots of assistance to stay balanced. You can see how I'm having to use lots of inside leg and bounce my inside rein because we were having some outside drifting problems with her hind end. We haven't worked on this in a really long time so it's not terribly shocking that she needs so much support, but by the end she started to figure it out and need less help from me.

Oh man was Casey a jump eating, fire breathing dragon tonight. I didn't free lunge her and the temperature had dropped and so it was like riding a pogo stick hopped up on sugar that came to life. We literally cantered for almost the entire ride and she wasn't even slowing down by the end. She wasn't being bad, and at the canter wasn't pulling on me or doing anything naughty, she just wanted to endlessly goooooo! We did some jumping as well and though her canter felt very balanced and powerful, she was so excited that she just kept jumping bigger and wider for each jump effort. So she had a blast and I'm exhausted and want to sleep for 24 straight hours 😂 Does your horse ever have days of extreme hyperness? Or am I alone in having a horse who thinks she's the reincarnation of Tigger from Winnie the Pooh?

I'm a tad nervous to post this because I feel like some internet trainers are going to accuse me of horse abuse, but here we go! @equestrian_adventure_ has taught her horse all kinds of cool tricks, like this funny dismount. We joke that he's her trick pony. She was kind enough to let me try! I'm obviously not very good at it, because I got a bit stuck for a second, but Casino was such a good sport about teaching me the trick. He got tons of pets and cookies after 😍 For an off-the-track crazy Thoroughbred, he really is such a good boy. Have you taught your horse any fun tricks?

This is from two weeks ago, but it's from the last time that @equestrian_adventure_ and I last did a horse swap. I'm super impressed with how well she handled Casey, because I know that my horse is not the easiest to ride. We have a lot of fun swapping horses with each other, especially since we only can really do that with each other. I think it's good for Casey to learn how to work with other riders and it's definitely good for me to learn how to work with other horses. Do you ever do horse swaps?

Apparently a five day vacation was exactly what Casey needed because she has been an absolute perfect unicorn since I returned from Mexico. Super quiet under saddle and cuddly on the ground, the best combination! It's a surprise because usually if Casey has any time off she turns into a fire breathing dragon, so I'm not sure why she's being so good now! How does your horse handle time off? Do they behave better or worse when you return?

We got back from Mexico at like 4 in the morning this morning, so what did I decide to do at 8 in the morning? Go to the barn of course! I'm currently dying of sleep exhaustion, but it was so worth it because I got to see my baby! Casey wasn't so impressed that I was back (at least outwardly, I like to think that deep down inside she was happy that I'm back) but my dogs are the most excited about our return. I love vacations, but I gotta say, I'm always glad to come back home to see my fur babies 🥰
