Few Months Catch up

August Catch up ‘21
Things are beginning to feel like normal again, well apart from the fact that I’m still working from home the majority of the time. I think I mostly say that because Eva has had more appointments this month! Firstly we had the excitement of heading out in our own trailer for some cross country training, [...]
Equine Massage
Eva and I are now sponsored by Cat Carter Equine Massage! Eva will be having monthly treatments from Cat which will have a range of benefits from relieving tension to enhancing muscle tone, and increasing range of motion. We've had our first two treatments already and after each treatment I can feel the difference especially [...]
Cross Country Training
Of course I'm going to document our first outing the my very own trailer! We had a practice run a few weeks earlier to let Eva see the trailer and have a quick run since she's not been in one for over a year. After a successful trial run I booked the local cross country [...]

May Catch Up 21′
Its been a pretty quiet month this month. Overall Eva's energy levels have been so up and down. I mentioned in my previous post that Eva wasn't eating her feeds as per usual at this time of year. I was able to get a feed in her after work but she was refusing to eat [...]
April Dressage ’21
Whats been going on this month ? Well one exciting thing happened which was we entered a dressage competition!! I had pretty much vowed off doing dressage at home, for several reasons, but mostly because Eva's concentration is not the best during normal schooling never mind when there is music playing, lorries in the car [...]
February Catch up ’21
In February we had a fair bit of rain and snow! Which unfortunately meant flooded fields and a lot of time spent in the stable. On the one hand I think Eva was quite happy to get out for some time in the field when she could but it didn't last, and before long she [...]
