Ozzy Meets George Thorogood: 1/31/2009

Today I rode Ozzy to music for the first time. In the opening scene, you can see him lunge past the "evil CD player." Haha! Although I switched out the music for the video, it WAS a George Thorogood CD--love me some Georgie!

Today's goals were to work on a canter figure-eight and to get Ozzy's behind over some cavaletti so that maybe we can consider some beginner hunter classes this summer as well as the dressage tests.

Thanks! He was a stallion, but had to be gelded last year due to a medical condition. :( I would have loved to breed him!

Ozzy's gonna be a superstar

[xxxligeiaxxx]

:) Thanks so much! I hope someday that will come true on a large scale! Right now he's my little superstar; and I tell him so every day! ;)

Wow! Thank you! I know how you feel--I'm completely addicted to these two too--haha! They and Clue are pretty much all Dragonfly1030 and I talk about. ;)

Interesting! I had thought as much. :) I will be sure to check them out, and no worries. I'm addicted to Duncan and Ozzy. You two are very lucky as well as inspiring to watch.

Exactly! So many people jump the gun and take the bigger steps maybe their horse just isn't ready for. I like that you do that. Like I said, I didn't really notice it with everything else I have subscribed, but I always read your video description and unconsiously think "wow, she's got her goals straight." So again, yes good job!

Well Fae, welcome to the crazy train! Ozzy and I have been through everything from basic haltering and leading (and being caught in general) to what you see here. Thanks for your kind words--I hope you'll continue to watch! :)

As for the ISH's--check them out online. I think you'll be very impressed with what you find. An ISH is a cross between an Irish Draught and a TB. They're super athletic with very quiet minds. Thanks again for watching! :)
