Once Leche was played out, she and Holly got down to some serious grooming.

La Leche was stuck inside today. She was extra spunky when she, Momma Tootie and Auntie Holly went to the arena for some play time.

Man, it's hot out! Thankfully we've had a (strong) breeze to help keep the horses comfortable. Our pastures all have shade - some natural, some man made- and most of the horses took advantage of that this weekend!

We don't consider our land "Rugged and rough" but we sure appreciate having many different types of footing and hills for our horses and babies to navigate and build bone and muscle.

Many years ago we had some folks with some high dollar cutting horses join us rounding up cattle, promising to show us "how to round up cows..." They were done by 10:00, bloody and banged up, horses done, lathered, stove up and limping. And uh, no cows..... It wasn't the horses fault. They were probably good at what they were bred to do and used to doing which was moving around an arena cutting cows... One of the things I've seen over the years is you can't bring arena, or flatlander horses to rough country and expect good things to happen. Again, not the horses fault. I don't think most people really get that handling rough country is something that takes a lot of skill and hard learned lessons. Horses aren't born knowing it, how to lean into a hard pull, sitting down on a steep descent, shifting weight and momentum, where to place their feet, and it gets even more challenging with the weight of a rider on their back. It's just not a fair thing to ask of a flat lander horse, and it's likely to get both horse and rider in a bad spot.

Thinking back, those cutting horses might have made decent mountain rides with a lot of experience, they had the try, but they still lack the heavy bone and hoof needed to hold up in those conditions. Just two very different types of horse.

So, my advice to those who want to ride rough country, consider getting one that grew up like this from day one.....
