Hello - I'm new! *PIC OVERLOAD*

[ponies]

Hello all 

I'm new to the forum and thought I would introduce myself....some of you may know me from other forums.

I have 3 horses (contemplating a fourth at the minute!).

Firstly there's Teasel, my first pony from many many years ago.  She's a Welsh D mare, 15hh, approx 12/13yrs now. She's such a cheeky character who hasn't always been easy, contrary to popular belief about cobs! 

Enough info anyway, pics of Teasel coming up!

This was our first dressage test a few years ago 



Left my jacket on during my test by accident 



Little bit of XC



This tires Teasel out a lot though! 



But mostly we just hack out a lot, doing the occassional endurance ride (much to Teasel's dismay!)





We also like to have a bit of fun sometimes...






So that's Teasel, hope there's no limit on pictures for my first few posts! (Better put my next horse in a seperate post just in case!  )

Next up there's Pacey  

She's a Hanoverian x TB, 16,2hh, 9yrs old, bred at the National Foaling Bank.

She was gifted to me for behavioural problems (as the pics will show).

She's still a work in progress but I have high hopes for her including competition.  

So here was the beginning of her training:

She was known to rear and get impulsive...as you can see she wasn't happy







But we worked on it and she became less impulsive...







So we went out hacking!







And eventually she was more accepting of the contact and although, like a say, we're still a work in progress, we're getting there:









So that's Pacey....one more to go....

Tiggy is my third horse and a shorter story!

Another gifted horse, her problems turned out to be physical, so I've offered her a much needed retirement home. She's a beautiful girl, 16.2hh TB by Java Tiger.






One more post to come with all my family's horses!

The rest of our herd is numerous, so I'll let the pics do the talking!























Ok I think that's all of them - phew!
