It's SHOWTIME!!


Well the time has come, Fred will be attending his first show with us this weekend (October 17). It is a smaller show put on by the North Florida Arabian Horse Club at the Clay county fairgrounds. I am so excited to see him strut his stuff with his little rider aboard! Jade (10), who has been riding him since he first came here will be showing him in Saddleseat Pleasure W/T, English Pleasure W/T, and Saddleseat Equitation. We will leave Friday night and Fred will stay the night and settle in then it is showtime on Saturday. Hopefully all will go as planned and he will be nice and relaxed.


Fred's weight gain has about leveled out. I want to keep him on the thinner side b/c of his old man joints, but he no longer is looking ribby and has a nice thick saddlebred neck. He got body clipped this week and seems so much happier and cooler considering he had a full winter coat and it has been 90 degrees (in October...what?).


I will make sure to take tons of pictures this weekend and keep everybody update on how it goes!
