Fancy was a super star today. I have Erin Patterson ride her two days a week. She rode her today and did awesome flying changes. Sweaty when I rode, but got all the flying changes I asked for.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes when Fancy canters, I bounce. It has nothing to do with flying changes\u2026just regular cantering. I\u2019ve tried to lean back, maybe my knees are braced, no. It\u2019s embarrassing as I make noise when bouncing in the saddle. People think I can\u2019t ride! It\u2019s embarasing. Sometimes, relief comes and we get a canter where I can relax, no bouncing
Fancy doesn\u2019t appear to be bracing her front legs. I can\u2019t figure it out. Today I asked Erin why I was bouncing.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Erin explained it: Fancy is going lateral\u2026like a pace. Erin asks her to speed up to fix it. It works for me too, but didn\u2019t understand what was going on under there and didn\u2019t know how to fix it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fifty degree day with sunshine today in winter Midwest. We rode outside up and down the driveway. Her fox trot is exquisite. I was in heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tomorrow snow\/rain and start of single degree weather.
Scream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No pig drama today. I fed her close by the pigs and she relaxed. She relaxed for the rest of the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pig drama is truly fixed. Pigs moved out to their outdoor home which makes them a neighbor to Fancy\u2019s turn out. Fancy and her pasture mate watched the pigs for a while without hysteria and they soon lost interest in them. When Fancy was able to see the pigs, no big deal. That is the Fancy we know!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
