Thank you for your explanations of how you are training Bella and her mindset. It is very helpful! You clearly have a lot of experience and are very good horsewoman.❤❤😊😊
It's nice when you talk about horses. What your plans are and how they react to different things. ❤️👏🐴👍👍 To see how much Bella has changed from when you got her to a nice trail horse. Congratulates Tara, well done👏👏🧑🦳
Hopefully she will learn to like menege work. Maybe put up poles now and then to get her to see that fun things happen there and it's not always 'boring'. She is really enjoying her hacks, looking about and eagerly observing her surroundings. ❤️❤️🐎🐎🌄🌄🥰🥰
Lovely ride continues! It looks like Bella has white ribbons on her hair between her ears? She's looking gorgeous. It will be interesting to see how menage work goes. As you say it may go well bc she knows now she will always have freedom on the trails to look forward to too ❤❤🌿☘🍀
Thanks for explaining how you want to proceed with Bella’s training! I’m so glad it was easy to get the stuck box out of the field! I thought you might have to take Apollo out! I’m sure he was a gentleman for whoever was holding him! Tara, I wouldn’t have had any idea where the hook on the trunk was either. Once I discover it wasn’t attached in the front I would have thought it just didn’t have one! Good to know these things in case there is a next time! 😱 A very pretty ride and Bella is doing well. She certainly loves her hacks!🐴⭐️⭐️❤️❤️
Perhaps you should have a harness collar handy for Apollo to use, if you get the box stuck again....😅. Totally agree about Bella getting back in the menage and understanding it now. Each horse is so different, and Bella just needed that extra time and get into hacking before she tackles more ground work.
Loving your understanding of what your individual horses needs, Tara. It's so good to see someone who is not in a hurry to not push training on them. Apollo, Farouke and Bella have a wonderful attachment to you for that 🖤🤎💛🧡
Perfect explanation of why schooling is vital. Racehorses don't use the same lead even though they're running in an oval. Not only does it create a weak side, but it will cause them to tire. Think about a large sweeping job. You'll tire so much faster if you only use one arm as your main sweeping arm.
🐴🐴💙...It will be interesting to see 👀 what Bella does going back into the Menage🤔...if Her Jumping Lesson is any indication...I think She'll do Great! Maybe throw some Ground Poles in?♥️ Lovely conversation as you Ride 🏇 thru this Beautiful Countryside!😍 Bella doing fantastic!💃💞 Loved this! Thank you ever so much for sharing and All take care!🙏🥰🤗🤗🐶💗...🐴🐴💙
Bella is thriving & it is obvious how much she enjoys being out & about. Thanks for the explanation of the girths ... great that you've figured that out!
I think those cages were for young birds too. I liked the way Bella neatly gave them a wide berth. She doesn't miss a trick does she? These are smaller monsters than she has encountered before, so at least she didn't come to an abrupt stop and refuse to go forward. This really is a nice ride out in beautiful weather. Enjoyable for both you and Bella. 🌞🤗😊
Yes I found that is very true conformational with mares Tara as they tend to be a tad longer and rounder than males to accommodate the carrying of foals
Yes I did hear it, mum! Round, barrel shape....rather rude, I must say. I don't think my many fans will agree with you. They think I'm pretty well perfect. Apollo loves me just as I am.❤❤ 😂😂 Lovely scenery.

Beautiful Beautiful Bella 🐎❤
🐴💖
She looks great Tara 🏇
She was so cute going by those wooden things. That's a nice little dirt road beside the fields. Such beautiful countryside.

😁 Yeah, all that HP walking around. Hitch 'em up!

Very happy it worked out with the box & Apollo ~ you never want any unforseen events.
Cheers🖑
Bella is a clever girl she is riding nicely on the trails she listens to you close and Bella have a good handle riding
😊 thank you
Well done Bella listening to Tara walk trot canter trot walk lovely smooth changes 🐴🐴🐴
Bella has grown in maturity into a great hacking horse. Lovely day for riding with beautiful scenery along the way.❤️❤️❤️
I guess it takes a lot of trying before you have the right saddling for each horse and yourself. Luckily with Bella it is looking good now

good idea
What was the cages used for? Wat a nice day for a lovely brilliant ride well done u 2
I don't know many be for young birds?
Bella is being such a good girl enjoying the countryside 😊

What is the girth you referenced? I have the same issue with my horse; the girth sits far back from his legs, he's round, and my saddle slips!

Interesting story re getting unstuck last time and how Apollo's 1/2 ton+++ weight factors in. 😮
Apollo may have to cut back a bit on those stud muffins

Bella does, as you say, love being out hacking and she’s settling into it so well 🐴🥕

Excellent ❤

Lucky you were unstuck so easily!
