I know how hard it can be to convince OTTBs that dressage is a necessary evil before the fun stuff, but you guys are really looking super!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07140631127593549541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-2430586266354586722012-08-08T08:05:54.680-06:002012-08-08T08:05:54.680-06:00Those are some super-cute pics! Even in the "...Those are some super-cute pics! Even in the "bad" ones, it's clear that you and Cuna have come a really long way together.<br /><br />I second Jean's thoughts - a dressage saddle, with a longer stirrup, will let you sit up more and be even more effective and balanced. Fingers crossed that there's a Stubben out there with your name on it for a steal! After all, a tack 'ho like you CLEARLY needs another saddle. ;)jenjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737679332792618499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-71188803838325514922012-08-08T06:19:48.326-06:002012-08-08T06:19:48.326-06:00Ah, Stubben.

They never fit Promise though, always too narrow. <br /><br />You guys have made a LOT of progress in a very short amount of time, and I have no doubt you will be continuing on the upward spiral.

I know it was hard at first and you were discouraged, but "You've come a long way, Baby!!" *G*Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10029423500476995817noreply@blogger.com
