thank you all! My horse is leased, she's a 21 yr old paint mare and a true miracle story. She's been unrideable due to hoof issues but her main horse mom is amazing and through lots of alternative and vet treatments, a fantastic woman farrier; we are begining to ride together. Wendy's ground work and horsewoman wisdom has shown me all we can do on the ground and Cheyanne and I have built a special friendship. Now I'm looking for a saddle ;)
