Hey Judy,
Thought I would send you out a note as show season has finished in Alberta. I must begin by saying that Anthony is a LOT of fun. I only got out to 3 shows as we purchased the new riding stable and I have been VERY busy. I showed PSG and I1 and at the final show, our Western Regional Championships, we emerged the champions. I am now home for the winter and working like crazy on the piaffe passage.
I think Anthony is a complete Albertan now. He has enjoyed his full acre of private turnout daily; having learned to graze and stretch his legs. He is funny to watch. When he wants water, he puts his head up and has a nice, contained canter to the waterer. He has his drink and then canters back to wherever he was last grazing. Most rewardingly, when I go to the gate to catch him, he usually trots or canters to me! I’m not sure he is ready to face the very cold winter but at least his barn is heated so he will only go out as it suits him.
Hope things are well for you, Joe and your little one.
Carol
