Blossom is one of the fillies I have been starting under saddle this summer at the rescue. This video (from earlier this week) shows her playing on our obstacle course. She has interacted a few times with most of these obstacles while doing ground work. However, this was her first time doing this with a rider!
This was Blossom’s thirteenth ride. She has only had several rides outside of the round pen. However, she is a brave and confident little mare and was not bothered at all by all of the new distractions. Clicker training has taught Blossom that new things, rather than being scary, are just something new and fun to play with. She conquered the cavalettis and trail bridge with ease and even walked straight up to the curtain. This was very brave of her, as many of our horses are pretty skeptical of the curtain, especially at first.
I hope you enjoy the video! (And if anyone needs a cute little chestnut pony, Blossom is currently available for adoption in North Texas.)
Blossom is very intelligent. She will eventually be able to handle a lot at the same time. Some lucky person gets a really neat horse.
Thanks! We also think she is going to be a great little riding horse for
someone.
She is such a gentle and responsive mare. What a sweetie. I hope she finds a great home.
Yup, she’s a great little mare!! We are hoping that we can find her an awesome home this fall.

Now that you have your cage all set up be sure to get some toys, maybe a wheel or ball, for your hamster. They really like to be active and need exercise just like any other pet. This will make them healthy and perhaps live longer.
that is great she is going to be a perfect kids horse
