Thanks to me adding my special blend of spice! This was soo boring before I came. The things people have told me in private messages about others on here would straighten your short and curliesBZHorseMomE said:Boy did my original post get way off track.

Could you possibly elaborate on that?

No I don't either. My 4 year old was attacked by a dog when she was a long yearling and it took awhile for the injuries to heal (mentally and physically) so that pushed her training back. Then I dislocated my shoulder twice so that didn't help much either. I started her late in her 2 year old year but she was growing so much (she was already 16.3 as a 3 year old) and I just don't like to do too much with them when they're 2 or 3. She's coming along nicely though now!saddlesore said:

Ahhhh Florida!
She stalks me..... She even knows where I live. She is fascinated by my beauty. She just can't help but defend me.saddlesore said:Quote:

How do you know - are you with her right now? Are you a couple, or do you just ride together, or do you work together? I'm just wondering, since it's 10:30 at night, and as Kiz pointed out, you do seem to defend Sadie and admire her, which is nice
I am not doing a great job of refraining from comment am I? I will just try not to mean and too childish.

What a horrible thing to have happened! I hope everything is all right now.
How many hands is your horse now? What is she: TB? WBx?

saddlesore said:As Sadie said, there are combined hunter & jumper organizations, so you'll often see it as H/J. But they are very different disciplines:
"Hunters" is derived from foxhunting. So you're looking for a nice, easy canter w/ a good rhythm. A quiet, 'mannerly' horse is important: judges look for a horse that is pleasant to ride. Jumps are spaced at fairly even intervals.
"Jumpers" go more at a hand gallop, and have some jumps spaced close together (combinations), oxers, and walls. The horse needs to be able to change speed quickly and make sharp turns, and constantly adjust its stride. So the judge looks for boldness, power and speed. The courses are more complex and technical.
Did I put you to sleep?
(gasp)...are you agreeing with SaidyLady!!! are you peering in her window late at night too? & here i thought i was the only one!

Which one do you want it to be?

Technically, you are being facetious rather than sarcastic, but I digress
Yes, in fact I am agreeing with Sadie. Got a problem with that?
Whilst not a peeping tom as you are, I do in fact like her. Why wouldn't I?
There is no one on this list I don't like. Frankly I don't know any of them well enough to not like them; not, at least, yet

Yeah she had a really tough yearling year!! She's doing very well now although she HATES dogs! She's alright with my Lab but not my Golden or any other dog that comes near her. She sustained the most damage on her left hind hock. The scars definitely kept her out of conformation classes! Once in awhile she'll get pretty stiff but honestly I'm lucky she made it at all since some horses aren't that lucky when they're attacked that young.saddlesore said:
Actually I haven't put a stick to her for awhile now so I'm not sure. She had a huge growth spurt in her height between 2 and 3 but then she really just filled out and didn't get much taller. Her mother is registered Paint and Pinto and is from QH stock. She's 14.2. Her father is registered and branded Hanoverian but he's out of a TB mare. He's 16.3. He's pretty refined though. My 4 year old definitely has a more solid build than both her parents. I was pretty shocked that she turned out that big!!saddlesore said:
