We've had some wild weather here in middle TN. Alternating gorgeous sunny spring days with rain and thunderstorms. Since the windy weather wreaks havoc on Yeager's ability to focus, our workouts have been a tad sporadic.
We are working on being consistent. He is building muscle quite well, although he's still lacking a real top line. I think that as he works more and more undersaddle and that work becomes more correct, his topline will begin to build.
He has some soreness in his hind end that I'm addressing with massage and his flexibility is definitely showing marked improvement. His leads on the lungeline have improved substantially to the point that is consistently picking up the correct lead in both directions and is much more able to hold it.
He is still getting anxious in turnout, especially if he's hungry. He is typically going out twice a day (early am and afternoon) for 30-45 minutes at a time.
About Me

- I am an equine massage therapist, army wife, mother of one beautiful son, equestrian, dog lover, avid cook, voracious reader- and always trying to balance the demands of all my interests. I've dabbled in most of the disciplines and am interested in anything horsey. I gave up riding for a bit when I was pregnant with my son, and was ORDERED to go back to the barn by a husband who was tired of my moods.
