An Attitude Adjustment

A few weeks after I birthed the twins, my Pony came back from lease. The trainer said he was the world's best pony and he was wonderful, but she wasn't getting enough business to justify keeping him. That's fine, I took him right back. When he got back, I was surprised to find him more assertive th[...]

A Pony’s Life

After spending most of last year as a lesson pony, Pony has returned to me.  My understanding was that he was the world's best pony at his lesson barn. I'm not sure of the exact details though. I really should have asked though. If there's one thing I love, it's hearing how great my pon[...]

Back to Work – Pony Gets a Job

Another big update on the farm: Pony Man has a job! I am thrilled that he will finally be doing something, but the sad part is that it isn't with me. I leased him to a lesson/training barn, and he's going to be a lesson pony.  Puffing himself up to impress the ladies It was hard to let h[...]

All About Pony Man

Since I almost never talk seriously about Pony Man, you'd be forgiven for expecting that he's just a random pony I picked up on the side of the road. Well, that's only half true! He's a random pony I picked up next to a breeder's farm on the side of the road! But in all actuality, he's a registered[...]

Shot from the Top

My deck overlooks my pasture, and I've been wanting to experiment with getting overhead photos of the horses. One day the horses were hanging out by the deck so I seized my chance.  While I didn't get exactly what I was looking for, I love their reactions.  Pony is trying to figure out[...]

The Ode to Pony Man

Poor poor Ponyman, who seems to get hardly any attention from anyone. He's not as desperately needy as Stu, and finds him annoying, so he just keeps to himself away from the herd. When I give him attention, he soaks it up like a plant taking in the sunlight. He's a good boy, my original ins[...]

Weanling Walk

Over the weekend we did Weanling Walk 2: The Reckoning. Weanling Walk 1 is here.  Weanling Walk 2 ended up being much better! Who would have thought a sequel would have been better than the original?!  This time, I stuck a camera similar to a GoPro on my head and recorded the who[...]

New Trainer, New Adventures

This last weekend was as action packed as any horse-obsessed person could want. It had all the excitement of a lesson, baby horses, moving hay, and a horse show! I need an extra day off to recover from this madness.  Today's topics - Lesson and hay.  I was half-heartedly looking at n[...]

The Pony Man Can

Pony, being a full grown 5 year old pony, needs to get out and see the world. I can show him the world.... you know, if I feel like. But in this case, D'Arcy will show him the world. She started by riding him last weekend.  So, to give you a brief recap of the life of Pony, I bought him[...]

TTouch Evaluation: Pony Man

Now the thrilling conclusion of the TTouch Blog Mini Series. I only have three equines, so I can only do so much with this topic. Today's contestant: Pony Man, a 5-year-old, medium sized pony with a heart filled with arrogance, and cowardliness, in equal measures. He enjoys galloping up to greet[...]
