Horses!

Ah thank you. I don’t ride dressage though. I’ll just have to keep looking, all the ones i really like are pretty expensive!

I know, it's crazy what these cost new!
I have another fleecy that I use with my jump saddle, also removable from the leather part and washable. I bought that used as well, from a different barn mate with a giant horse, so I don't need extenders with that one.

One thing you could do: some of these online tack stores sell just a tube made out of fleece that you can string through whatever girth you currently use. They're fairly inexpensive, I used one with my previous mare who also had sensitive skin. Something to consider while you're on the search for a reasonably-priced one you like.

Thank you! I do plan to get her one of the ones I like, but the one I use now works fine. It never stops me from looking though!

A friend of mine bought a new horse, Rosie, an 11 year-old Mustang. I'm so happy my friend decided to board here at the same barn I board at!
Yesterday we went on a trail ride together, and it was so fun.
My friend told me, the other day when she went on the trails by herself, Rosie was scared of the gravel steps and bridge, so instead of starting a fight she went another way, But today she followed my mare Princess up the steps and over the bridge. Princess was kind of snorty, not used to being the leader, wanting to gallop home, but both of us were able to keep them calm and listening to us. Super fun trail ride! I'm so glad my friend and her nice horse Rosie are here.

Today I was riding my mare, Phoebe and she wouldn't do anything I asked her to do she refuses to walk into the other pasture. She would back up and act like she was going to buck or crowhop and she has never done anything like that before. But I made her work a long time and I was leading her for a while and she would tense up and act like she would explode into bucks and crowhops. I finally got her to do something good and then I let her go

Today I braided Phoebe's mane. I also braided Dora's mane and I was going to get a picture of both of them with their manes braided but before I could get the picture Dora decided she needed to roll and undo all her braids but I did get the picture of them
