It’s been wayyy to long since I have given a Wisteria update! So I thought better now then never! She is living her best life being graduated to kid, fiancé, cat, flag, parade, and rodeo safe! 😍 She has been a rock solid mount for whatever I have pointed her at. Whether that be trails, giving kids rides, roping, Kitsap county fair, dabbled in some gaming events, ellensburg parade, rodeo grand entry, and anything else she has done. ♥️ I’m so proud of this lady!

Picture and video dump of this weekend’s competition!! I can not say how proud I am of this horse! We placed 3rd In our body conditioning class, 4th in showmanship, 4th in trail, and 8th overall!!! I can not say thank you enough to all those you have supported me and helped me through these 100 days I couldn’t have done it with out the support of my amazing family and friends! ♥️ I made some good new friends this weekend and want to say congratulations to them cause they all did fantastic!! Also I can’t wait to do this again I have learned more this weekend then I had ever hoped to! ♥️

Here it is!!! Our trail course video!! She absolutely blew me away with how well she did. She got stuck at the back and had to move on. During our freestyle she decided it was the perfect time to show everyone she could canter! (First time actually cantering her ever!!) ❤️❤️

First day down! Showmanship went really well she was so calm the whole time. I couldn’t be prouder of this mare! ♥️🥰

Little Miss all ready for this morning!! Despite the annoyed look on her face she was really happy to see me and keeps asking for attention 😆

01/09/2022

Sooooo after much consideration, going back and forth, also trying so many different things to make it look right I decided to roach it. 😆😆 I think she rocks the roached look!! What do you think?!?

Picture and video dump of the Little Miss over the last couple months!! ♥️☺️

Okay!! I need help lol!! So as you see this little miss decided to rub part of her mane off (stinker haha) should I 1. Leave it as it is 2. Cut the rest of the hair to match the shorter stuff 3. Braid it and hope you can’t see it 🤞😂

I know I haven’t posted in FOREVER! but…. Wisteria has been up to some amazing things as you know she spent all summer at miracle ranch with me. I figured out she loves baths, she got her feet trimmed for the first time about a week ago she did absolutely amazing stood so still the whole time she even started to falls asleep! Most recently wisteria was at the Kitsap county fair all week long! This horse continues to amaze me everyday she had no issues all week long. There where so many people everywhere she would let them walk right up to her and pet her! I even showed her in showmanship and placed 2nd then In Hand Trail to place 1st! I can’t believe it’s almost competition time we leave Thursday!!

I haven’t posted in a while I have been so busy working out at Miracle Ranch. But… Wisteria has been doing great! Has a couple more rides on her and is great with other and multiple people around at once! Lots and lots of other fun stuff happening with her…. Also has an abscess we are working out so not much going to be done over the next couple of days. ♥️

LOOK! Wisterias first time having someone else work with her! She was a rockstar! got lead around first time over poles and had her feet picked up! Thank you Sara bell for helping and working with my pony! ♥️

14/06/2022

We have been doing lots and lots of hanging out. To make catching easier and it WORKING! she now walks up to me let’s me pet her face without being haltered!! Also been doing quite a bit of ground work. She’s coming along very nicely ☺️

12/06/2022

I have been feeling quite under the weather this last week and because of that Wisteria has had Thursday and Saturday off and a very short session on Friday working on the canter while lunging. Also I haven’t gotten many pictures or videos cause I have been by myself. But….. I feel like know is a good time to tell all of you about the raffle fundraiser that the mustang adopted challenge is doing. You do not have to be present to win drawings will happen and the competition in September. It’s $10 a ticket. The four things you could win are on the back of the ticket and in the picture on the right. ♥️♥️

First time outta the round pen since being moved, and first time being worked since Wednesday (I wanted to give her a few days to settle in) she didn’t forget one thing!! We mostly just hung out and walked around but we did go over some of the basics even started teaching to move away from pressure when moving her forehand and hind end ♥️

Sorry I haven’t posted in a few days 😭 my phone was broke and didn’t let me post.
But the last couple days we have been up to a lot. Worked on saddling she getting super comfortable with it now, went for a trail ride all tacked she was cool as a cucumber, been brushing her and handling her feet everyday, I can pick up and hold all four feet no problem, been working on being able to walk up to catch her, also this little miss earned to have her halter off! ♥️

28/05/2022

Day #22
I couldn’t get any videos cause my phone is out of storage. But LOOK!!! First saddling! Handled it like she had been saddled her whole life! She didn’t spook even a little. Also picked out all four of her feet she is getting more and more comfortable and confident each day. ♥️♥️

Day # 21
Officially three weeks with the girl!! Worked on tons of stuff today!! Worked with the saddle pad it was like she had done it 100 times before! I can now pick up all four feet! (Farrier visit will be soon) Wisterias first time out of the round pen! I walked her all around by hand then ponyed her on a walk! She did so good! She’s turning out to be a wonderful horse ♥️ I tried to post this yesterday but for some reason it didn’t work 🤦‍♀️

Day # 20
Today I really worked on getting her to lead better I used my horse Charlie to pony her around the round pen. She did great! Kept slack in the rope almost the whole time. They also both really like cuddles and definitely weren’t jealous when I would pet one and not the other 😂 also worked on the beginning steps of working with her feet!

25/05/2022

Day # 19
Progress!!! Today we worked on a lot of desensitization. I did the handy stick, the rope, the halter. I brushed and braided her hair. Got a new halter on her and decided she ready to have the drag line off. I’m so proud of her she has come so far in such a short amount of time 🥰

Day #17
Wisteria had three days off cause I had a wonderful opportunity to watch, help, and support my younger sister and her teammates that made it to state in WAHSET. I got to watch tons of amazing events and her drill team qualify for regionals!! I did a short session with Wisteria and I think she missed me 🥰 she did not forgot one thing over those three days she actually went from not wanting me to touch her face to literally putting her head on me and falling asleep in my arms ♥️♥️
