Shortie (November 9)- Standardbred learning dressage ?! Yeah.

[jrmints80]

He does move a lot better at the end! I love standardbreds and trained mine up to 3rd before retiring him. Is he slower though? I noticed she was kicking him nearly every stride? My standardbred was very very forward thinking and my warmblood mare is even more so and wouldn't put up with it, I would just worry it might dull him to the leg. Also a bit too much up and down with the hands but I love the end result on the horses side

@jrmints80 This was a long time ago, and he did not know what leg was at this point. He was not able to move off of it. He is doing much better now, and is starting to get his canter. This is not me riding, as I said. And He was just learning at this point. We have been doing walk/trot dressage tests and at our last show he got 1st on both tests and class high point. He moves off the leg much better now. By the end of August we should be moving up to training level. He is amazing.

Wow, I see an amazing difference since the time you had him at the 4-H show at Heritage. He's looking so good, and gives to hand so willingly. I think that's one of his strong points, he seems to be a really kind horse. Well done !, to you and your trainer, for bringing him along so well !!

@chillynites1

Thank youuu ! :) He has so many strong points, everything we ask of him, he does it to the best of his ability with out getting angry, and no matter how hard he is being pushed he still tries his absolute best, I love him so much , I can't even begin to tell you, he is truly amazing! <3

@ridingrulez

Thanks giiiirl, and I already did, hahaha :)

Oh well, I have seen videos of her riding before, and she is terrible, she would die on Shortie :) Whatever though, this video isn't meant to brag about him being all amazing or focus on the riding, it is meant to show how far he has come in the year I have owned him, and what he has been learning for people like you who never get to see him anymore :)

[ridingrulez]

@maegan80801

hahahaha she would die on a HORSE, nevermind shortie ;)
