Waldo training at home with @bobbyhayler this morning. In a perfect world, I shouldn't be uploading this - he was late behind, he was against the hand, he rushed off and I wasn't sitting deep enough. But oh my god am I proud of him! It's our first real go at 'proper' flying changes, and for such a gangly horse who doesn't really know where his legs are, it's a big thing for him. What I'm even more proud of is how well he settles back down afterwards. He's not a huge fan of different and new things, and can get unsettled by it very easily, but handled this like a pro. We'll compare this video to the one I'll be posting in 8 months time of him doing tempis! 🙌

These are a few of my favourite things... Incredibly dull couple of past weekends with pulled shoes, cancelled shows and various other things stopping play. We're heading up to Your Horse Live on Thursday for the entire show, where we'll be organising something very special, so keep your eyes peeled for that! Hopefully when we get back we'll be over our bout of bad luck and we can start doing things again. 🤞🤞

🔊🔊 Volume up for this one...this seemed apt for Halloween! Jezza was a little 'spritley' in his lesson this morning. 🙈 He managed to kick me twice with this maneuver, and this was him being well behaved! Definitely a witch like cackle though. I am manly really, I promise. 😬

Argh, sorry for the radio silence!!!! Managed to get locked out of this account (basically I'm old and forgot the password) but thankfully all sorted now! 🙌 We've been seeing LOTS of incredible things going on with the #buddydontbully and #equestriansrethink hashtags - how are you all getting on with your 30 days of kindness challenge? Who wants a sneak peak of some of the prizes that are up for grabs as part of the giveaway bundle?

A cracking start to our official British Dressage career! Waldo smashed it at our first affiliated competition yesterday, WINNING both his prelim and his novice class against some proper professionals and flashy horses! It was also both of our first times doing long arena tests, so I'm super chuffed with how we did. Onto the next! 🎉

It's time to make a change... As some of you may have seen, we've been working on making the Internet a nicer, more supportive place with our #buddydontbully campaign, but this isn't a task we can tackle alone. So, in light of this, we've teamed up with the amazing Gracie of @pony_nuts to try and promote positivity again. And what better way to make us all more responsible than with a 30 day challenge?! We want to see as many of you getting involved with this as possible, sharing your kindness and doing your bit to help us out. Simply follow the tasks set (it doesn't have to be in order!) and post them on your story, insta account, Facebook or anywhere else. Make sure you use the #buddydontbully and #equestriansrethink hashtags and tag us every time. There is a prize bundle up for grabs for the 'nicest' person, so make sure you use the tags and hashtags to be seen - every post will count as an entry! Bullying has to stop, and nastiness in the equestrian community has become too much 'the norm'. With your help, we can change that. So please, do your bit too and support us where you can.... Manners really do cost nothing. #buddydontbully #equestriansrethink
