[{We're Close and Then We Run}] {READ PLEASE}

This horse has been quite the journey....and he is for sale. He has been for sale and has only had one person who cam and tried him. It was unsuccessful, but if I were to find a new horse we would donate him to the local college. I have been riding him but not giving him my full attention, because I know he would have to go and it would be hard to let him go....Even tho he is big mammoth bratty buffalo bully, I love him.
[We're close and then we run]
I have been to both extremes with george: on the edge of my seat ready to move up and feel confident and powerful in the show ring....and then angry and frustrated and ready to just give him away so I wouldn't have to deal with him. I thought 2010 was going to be our year to shine as a team....we only went to 2 shows...the first one is where I lost all trust and faith and confidence in him and I decided to give him another try at one more show...unsuccessful...

Well a couple of weekends ago my best friend had to put her horse to sleep.....it hit hard...It killed me inside trying to fathom what she was going through...it was hard for me losing her horse....losing my own horse? Even george...i love him and I'm his "little girl" if thats what you want to call it..he's never had a little girl in his 18 years that loved and cared for him every day of his life. What would he think of me selling him?

[But this is where the story ends or has it just begun?]
Riding all these different horses this past year has changed my riding...even though I have not found a match, I have gained a large part of my confidence back...which I am SO SO thankful for! So I started back taking lessons with george. I have taken 3 in these past couple of weeks. I am not letting him scare me. I am trying to be the rider and not just the passenger. I went ahead and bought a new bit to try...big step for me considering I've tried oodles of bits that have just worked when he's in the mood for them to work. I'm going to a show this weekend....big step too...we'll see how that goes...

I'm still looking for a horse but I'm gonna give george my all while i look. So has the story ended or has it just begun? I just dont know.

Comment green if you were awesome enough to read all this! And tell me what ya think ;)

Love,
AB

@dancinghorses21 Hey Syd! I love you and miss you! I think JR and I are going to make a video. I know she misses you and Payton tho!

the horse is very beautiful. :) have you tried parelli or a training center for horses? i went to several riding schools as I'm trying to find a match but it does take heaps for a good match. Horses have huge personalities and their own training is crucial. The lesson I had today would have put me off horses forever had I not known these two things...

I dont think you should just give up george and get a new one because what if that other one doesnt work? I also lost my horse it was a year ago March 18th. And i truly miss him. I wouldnt give up on george just yet.
