Are you going riding today?

Question

If so, what are you going to do, is your horse behaving well?

I am soooo bored :)

Answer 1

I might if the mud clears up by this evening. It is to hot to do it any other time.

Answer 2

Just got back about an hour & a half ago.

The boys wanted to go riding, so I told them if they wanted to ride, then they could bring the horses in, get them groomed & then come to the house & get me & I would help them tack up.  They did it, so off we went.  Stayed in the pasture (40 acres) rode fence played around a little.  It was nice & all 4 horses were fine.  No problems anywhere.  When we got back, we took the saddles off & I went back up to the house while the boys groom the horses & turn them back out.  Good day!!!

Answer 3

i have a riding horse, but it is raining today. so i cant ride. but my riding horse is retired. so i think i will practice showmanship with my future grand champion miniature horse in our showmanship indoor arena. ((: and yes she behaves EXCEPTIONALLY well!

Answer 4

Yes! We go 5 times a week. I live northen CA. so we have 100's & 100's of miles to ride. We will head out about 5 pm. My horses are very well behaved! I take a lot of time to train them. Mine don't get rode until 4yrs or older, so I can train them correctly.

Answer 5

Yep, this eve. After 8pm we will take off for a 2 hour. Well if all plans go right we will. I will be riding around  MT. Charleston/ Lone MT  in Las

Vegas Nv.

****edit****

Yes, mine are well behaved.

Answer 6

Only in my dreams: My horse is perfect in every way and so is everything else. We'll fly along beaches and hit the moon, only stopping for some delightful edibles along our way.

In reality, I am full of screws and pain and don't have the ability to ride yet but am working towards that goal. And, unfortunately, my perfect horse who was going on this trip with me is dying of cancer.

But I can dream!

Answer 7

Yep. I am trail riding him at home. He is fat, so he needs to lose a lot of pounds. He behaves really well. He is so comfortable to canter bareback. He is like a sofa.

Answer 8

Yep!  We ride around 7pm, when the sun is going down and the air cools.  We are mainly going to ride around our property, but we may ride down to the neighbors and ride with them.

Most of our horses are well behaved, but we have a 3 year old who was off for a little while after having surgery, so he's a little rambunctious, but not horribly so.

We also started out 2 year old mule.  He did really well for his time being ridden.  I sat on him white my husband walked him around on a lunge line.  He is a HUGE mule and I was waiting for him to do his signature jump, but he didn't.  We'll saddle him up again tonight for another lesson.

Answer 9

My horse is a well behaved gelding.  He is a joy to have around whether I am on his back or just working around him.

Answer 10

Not today but I'm going tomorrow. I'm going to work on his dressage to calm him down because he's a bit jumpy and excitable when he's jumping.

Answer 11

not today but wednesday:)

Answer 12

usually saturdays, but my barn is booked for the next 3 weeks!!!!! AHH!

Answer 13

I'm thinking about it...

If I do, i'll probably warm up with a little basic dressage, then some jumping!

And He can behave well, when he wants to :D He's an OTTB

I feel your pain! I hate being bored.

Answer 14

I sure am! I'm still working on training my boy, but he is doing AMAZING for only being on him for a month!! We'll probably just work on galloping today because I just taught him that. Have a great day everyone!!

Answer 15

Not today, but Tuesday. On Tuesday we will work on bending/counter-bending circles and hopefully transition that into a canter on the side reins (lunging). I am real excited! Today I am going to see my gerbils. =D

Answer 16

I'm going shopping - and boring food shopping at that !

However I do have a plan to ride tonight at about 7.

They are being pretty good but they do have grass bellies at the moment !

Answer 17

Actually, me and my horse (mostly me) are recovering from an accident, and today I took for our first ride in weeks! just short, bareback, five or so minutes. But it felt so good to be on the back of a horse again!

Answer 18

I'm going Tuesday and can't wait! I hope to work on my jumping cause I stink. My horse sometimes behaves well... others no to well. I'm bored too... thats why I'm answering these random question :]

Answer 19

Possibly,  I might put a few more miles on a green horse.

Answer 20

I go riding every day except Sunday (my horse's break day). I'm going to jump, and my horse is behaving great! Sorry that your so bored = (

Answer 21

yes im going riding. hopefully i will be going out hacking, and do some fast work, as i am working on my horses fitness.

yes, my horse is behaving well

Answer 22

I'm just back from a walk on my Highland, leading my daughter (aged 4, on a Shetland), and my stepdaughter (7, on a Welsh B). All were well behaved :)

(The Highland is very good at being a babysitter; when he's out on his own he's mad, but when he's got to look after someone he's good as gold.)

Also had a quick sit on my Welsh A, who was not as bad as he has been, although hardly a diamond by any stretch.
