Aww bless you. Honestly if you weren’t being nervous and second guessing on a new baby horse I’d personally be worried . Chin up girl. It’s a learning experience everytime on Enzo. Hugs
Tina you are such a caring, considerate horse owner - bless you. It's only been a month! Banksy being bored is probably a sign he is feeling so much better and needs to get out again. So glad you've got such good mates to support you. Isn't Enzo a smasher - he and Banksy are so different and both very special. Well done Tina, take care, onward and upward!!
Oh Tina, don't be so hard on yourself! It always takes time to get to know a new horse and it's normal to feel overwhelmed, particularly when you've been riding one horse for such a long time. So long as you feel safe and enjoy riding him, nothing else matters. You are a wonderful owner and Enzo will have a fabulous life with you. Anything else you two achieve during your time together is a bonus! Having friends to help you along the way makes a big difference too. Know that we are all supporting you in your journey! So often we are our own worst critics! Keep going, keep positive and give yourself and Enzo the time to feel confident together xx ❤
What a stunner, considering he was picking up on your energy (as you know they do) he coped with everything so well. What an amazing confidence builder that has been for you both. I just love his movement and lines. You have brought a beauty. Really looking forward to your next blog. This was even more amazing considering this was all achieved without practicing the test. That in itself puts all of this into perspective on what an amazing temperament that baby boy has.
How exciting is this journey with Enzo?! I'm loving the content, Tina, and absolutely LOVING all the ponies getting along together. It's also completely understandable that Banks is acting a bit jealous, and how this change can be frustrating and upsetting for you both. Banksy absolutely knows you love him, and I believe with time, this new way of life for all of you will become easier and more natural. Wishing you the best, T. So much love! ❤
What a great start on your new journey together. 2nd place and your first frilly of many more to come I'm sure. I love Ems poker face haha. She gives nothing away. Thanks for being there to film for Tina and us all Susie . Without you, we wouldn't be able to take part in this new journey with you all. Here's to a bright future and fun times ahead x
Such a lovely vlog❤ I think its so refreshing to see real emotions it shows you care and that is exactly you. Never apologise for being true and honest. Banksy is just used to being the main man bless him and he will get jealous but he knows u love him loads and it will always be like that. Congratulations on your first frilly with Enzo here's to many more❤
Awhh bless you. The pair of you did absolutely brilliantly and I couldn't believe how relaxed he was, and that showed in his tests. Well done you, you are very obviously doing a grand job, despite not believing in yourself!
A mirror can be a helpful way to reduce jealousy or anxiety in horses, especially if the jealous horse is feeling lonely or overly focused on the new one. It can distract them, give them a sense of companionship, and help calm them down. This is how we solved the problem, and it can be a temporary or even permanent solution for you. You’ve got this-you’re awesome!
I’m only at 2 mins 40 seconds and I had to leave a comment to let you know you are more than capable. You and enzo are amazing together yous will be great you will get used to it also don’t worry to much it will all work out and you will be looking back asking why you ever questioned yourself ❤❤
Dear Tina .. I saw you stressed this a.m. and you need to take a deep breath in your nose and breath out. You are very strong and you can do this. ❤❤❤❤❤you got this girl ❤ Stay strong and believe it you are beautiful as well as your horses . ❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t think you realise how competent you are, you are also such a great horse owner your horses are happy and healthy and. Well loved, have a bit more trust in yourself a baby horse v an older is going to be loads different but you have the ability to do it, your test results show that! The Short amount of time you and enzo have had together I think this is going to be a great partnership I can see see badminton at some point! You both looked epic ! You got this Tina ❤
Oh, Tina!! I'm so chuffed for you and Enzo on your first time showing!! You must be quite pleased with him!! Even though you made an error and learned the wrong test, don't let that get to you at all!! We've all done it!! Where we've needed a caller at some point or another. I actually learn the tests, but I ask for a caller anyway, especially if I'm riding a baby horse, like Enzo is. And definitely, if I'm riding more than one horse at that level. Because each horse rides differently, I just find it easier to have the caller call out the test for me so I don't forget anything at all in it. You did great, Tina!! Be proud of yourself for recovering as fast as you did, and to end up 2nd at the end of the day? What a bonus!! His first rosette!!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Another brilliant vlog giving us real insight of what life is really like all the emotions horses put us through and how it is all worth it in the end. Thank you and well done x
Sending you a big virtual hug. You are absolutely entitled to feel nervous, but please, please be kinder to yourself. Treat yourself as you do your horses, with kindness, patience and understanding. You've got this! Go, gal!
❤❤❤ - Tina, 🎉❤🎉 - everything is just as it should be - Enzo is working so well and it’s obvious he loves having a job and his desire is to please YOU! Thanks for sharing your passion, your journey, and all the vulnerabilities you’ll face as you grow stronger within this beautiful, new relationship with Enzo ❤🐴
Lovely to watch the very start of your journey together, you both did really well Enzo coped well with the box and standing etc and you rode him beautifully for his first tests. Thank you for taking us along can’t wait for a winter of training 💕
Oh, bless you. I had tears with you. You're a new mummy, and that comes with all the worries ❤ You just want your best for all your fur babies and yes, you do seem more relaxed with company and you know you can do it as you went out to school, walking there on your own ❤ I know when we had our second pup. Is Gelert, my oldest dog going to like it, love it, will we be able to cope with two? All thoughts like that at the time and now knowing, would not change anything for the world. Gelert is nearly 13 and Cariad is nearly 3 😊 Loved the vlog, and well done Enzo ❤ and mu.my Tina 🎉
Oh so well done on your new pony!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉. Don’t worry about the emotion - you had lots on your mind! But also, if you worry about Banksy being “jealous”, he will worry too. If you don’t worry, he won’t either! So happy for you and your future with Enzo. ❤❤❤
Is there a new career on the cards for Banksy? So exciting to see you and Enzo again!!!🎉🎉🎉 I think you might have become a bit overexcited on the morning. Being overexcited is a stressful and frustrating feeling.
Thank you for sharing the beginning, new baby horse owner here too and we put so much pressure on ourselves that we are getting it wrong, and it’s all just so overwhelming at times but then they do something like you’ve done today and it all feels ok again 😅 xx
Huge well done!! If you can get 2 more scores over 63% for your prelim before 31st December you qualify for petplan area festival which is a fab comp to go too xx
Just like a mom when you have a new baby. Trying to make sure that everyone gets your love and nobody gets left out. It’s all perfectly normal and I wouldn’t expect anything else from you because you love your boys. It will be okay and emotions will settle. You looked amazing by the way 🥰🤗
I had the same thought. New mums generally feel lost, frightened, and often, feel a failure - when they aren't. Just do you, Tina, and just be you. You are much, much more than enough. You are an excellent rider. It's early days. I, and most of your followers, think you are doing brilliantly. 🤗❤ A shout out to Emily & Suzie❤
Omg T, you and Enzo 😍 just suit each other so well, I really think your kind sweet and empathetic nature is going to be so beneficial for him! Such a great match together, don’t get me wrong, love Banksy for you but for a second horse, your horse skills are just increasing out the roof with someone so different! Love that you share the low and high, because that is 100% what all our journeys are like!! I remember when I got my boy thinking am I the right person for him 😂 he’s stuck with me now haha Em and Susie… if you read this, thank you for being the amazing friends you are and both supporting Tina in your own unique ways, I think us viewers are lucky to watch such a supportive team work together ❤ Big big smooches to Enzo, from some weirdo from Australia 😂 sure he will still love it! Love you Tina!!! Xo
Congratulations Tina you and Enzo where awesome!!!! Loved watching this, I love how in tune with your emotions you are, im the same, I cry at happy endings of movies!! Was so happy seeing the girls there with you, great support! If that was Em in the vlog saying about being a no it all while you were warming up, tell her she has the experience with a young one, and can help, thats not being a no it all, thats being helpful!
Tina ,I addmeryou for going out with enzo . It's such good conditions as you have got the winter time to bond .good to see Emily there with you for confidence . Thank you Susie for filming . That's such good training for you to look back on .👍👍👍👍😄😄😊😊❤❤❤❤
Awww don’t question yourself your such a good rider he takes such good care of you both of them do your so good I really look up to you don’t ever question yourself ❤️
Fantastic result well done. He's such a calm and relaxed boy at the show took everything in his stride. Love watching you both grow together and your journey together.
Enzo is a really lovely horse. The only way to learn and gain experience, is to get out there and do it! You are doing exactly the right thing. If I could suggest re mounting......with out tack, lead him up as you doing, but work on him standing without the contact of the reins. He's anticipating you, and then you are having to hurry your actual mount. Still he's learning fast, and obviously a very intelligent chappy. Congratulations. A great start to your competitive life together. ❤
Awe bless you Tina. It will feel like this with a new horse. It's not to soon. With Enzo only being a baby I would class this as experience for him get him used to going out. You are both new to eachother and I think it be great experience and it only a local show.. someone I know would say the same thing as me. It's not to soon. I think it will do him some good is well. He's absolutely gorgeous 🤩 and banksy is well xx
Big hugs 🤗 to you Tina and Enzo. You rode Enzo so well and he did two lovely tests for a baby. He is just going to get better and better and a lovely blue frilly too ❤ well done 😊
Wow awesome I’m so glad you put this vid on of the intro 2 test as I have the same test on Sunday with my ponio, so nice to watch you ride it where I can pick up some pointers as I’m so nervous about doing it but it’s third time of doing dressage for me 😬😁xx
To go and get a second, on a green youngster that you barely know is pretty amazing Tina! Trouble is, you've set the bar high 😂😂 Your bound to feel emotional, I don't think its nerves, it like grieving an old relationship (with Banksy) and Banksy is like a comfortable old pair of slippers that just fit. It will settle ❤❤
Looking so good! For his first outing, Enzo was really first rate and will continue to improve as he gets more experience and becomes more confident in the arena! Tina, you did a really good job of settling in and working with Enzo so he presented well. As you both continue to work together there will be definite improvement! Well done to both of you!
Oh, what a good vlog! I'm glad you left the beginning because you are right. It is life. Enzo and you did a wonderful job. Just to see him act like this in his first test gives me shivers! Well done and thanks so much for sharing.
He is so incredibly stunning!!! ❤❤ I keep thinking he will go sub 30 easily with more training!!! And such a good boy too!!! ❤❤ Banksy beeing jalous is natural...... He is used to your attention all the time!!! But as long as he gets his outings and his part of the fun, he will be happy to share the workload!!! Just still new to all of you...... ❤❤ You definently did the right thing buying Enzo!!!
25:20 I don’t do watermelon either… bitter.. with or without salt. 😂 dandelions… dandelion greens in salads and dandelion wine 🍷👍. Great job on first outing… Enzo attitude was amazing. He’s looking so well. STOP doubting yourself Tina 😉
My horse acts the same way around me with other horses as banks with Enzo. It's pure jealousy🙈 he shares a field with a 4 year old ,he won't even let me pet the mare/share treats etc but once I'm not around they get on like a house on fire! Hopefully time will help 🤞❤ it just shows how strong your bond is! They're like toddlers having tantrums! X
I'm on a new baby horse journey too (4 yr old racer) and I'm learning to not rush, take things at the horses pace and be kind to myself. Loving watching your journey....love the y food as well but the calories in it don't like me 😅😅😅
What wonderful finish to your day 🎉 The positives should always outweigh the negatives and you certainly had plenty to be positive about after completing your first comp with bubby Enzo 😊 xx
Well, whatever anyone else thinks, I think you did a very good job. First time out, with a young horse that is still pretty new to you, and you manage a second place? Respectable marks on both tests. I'd be more than happy with that! By the way, you are making me think about getting back in the saddle, which would probably be foolish considering how long it's been since I last rode, and the shape my body is currently in. LOL.
Ah Tina, It's all very easy for us to sit here in our comfy chairs and critique, but honestly please don't be so hard on yourself, I can already see a huge improvement in his carriage and as you said he is SO polite, so willing and so chill, yet forward going..I think you are going to go far with this young lad, and I am here for the watching of it, may I also say thank you for sharing with us 🥰
Aww, Tina. You have always had the welfare of your horses first and foremost. It's human nature to second guess (okay, some more than others). But, to come away from not only two different BD tests, but getting yours and Enzo's first frlly. I can remember that struggles that Emily had with a younger Addie. And, correct me if I'm wrong, Emily, that you found help through Steve Young Horsemanship. Maybe he might have a way of mounting safely? Tina, don't change who you are or what you do, because we love you because of who you are. 😊
Your feelings are understandable ,first time in a long time it isn't Banksy and fyi you are more than capable to do this. Don't sell yourself short ❤❤❤
My gelding has a horrible forelock and my mare hates standing still for forelock braiding so we just throw a bonnet on and call it a day 10/10 recommend 😅
What if you took Banksy with, for Susie to show? Just a thought... But yeah, if you didn't have second thoughts and questioning, we'd all be concerned! Oops about the wrong test but you've now got stuff to solidly work on
Tina,, you are so kind, knowledgeable and a 1st class horse lady. We 'horse' people all have our 'own' journeys with our horses. You need to enjoy this journey and do it your way, there's no wrong or right, only educate (which u r doing). Love your videos but its a shame to see you crying when u should be enjoying him ❤ i use my husbands youtube account, fyi my name is Ginny 😊
Aweeee you did well Tina just chill out more everything will be alright Rome wasn’t built in a day as the old saying goes. Banksy was so jealous you should ignore him or put him in the field before you start with Enzo. He makes me laugh you’d think he was a 5 yo not Enzo lol. Keep smiling and positive and breathe.tfs🤗🏇🤗
Tina 👏you👏are👏more👏than👏capable, you deserve this more than anyone else. You have tried so so hard to get where you are, you got this girly 🫶🏻 we love you Also Enzo already looks 10x more comfortable in him self and holding him self you have done amazing in such a short time you two will go far and don't think you are abandoning banks because you aren't Sorry for the waffle 😂🫶🏻🫶🏻
I think your horse got mad because you put him back in the horse box and had an attitude when he came back out.😅. It seems he doesn't like loved on ,as Banksy sucks up on all the lovin 😅😅😅❤❤❤
Aww bless you. Honestly if you weren’t being nervous and second guessing on a new baby horse I’d personally be worried . Chin up girl. It’s a learning experience everytime on Enzo. Hugs
Thank you, feel so fortunate that he’s such a sweetheart and so straightforward xx
❤ Well done Enzo! 🎉 A great first show with you new boy Tina. 🎉 😊 xOx
Tina you are such a caring, considerate horse owner - bless you. It's only been a month! Banksy being bored is probably a sign he is feeling so much better and needs to get out again. So glad you've got such good mates to support you. Isn't Enzo a smasher - he and Banksy are so different and both very special. Well done Tina, take care, onward and upward!!
You should never apologize for showing your emotions, I love that you vlogs are so real, nobody can always be cheery. Well done you!!
Oh Tina, don't be so hard on yourself! It always takes time to get to know a new horse and it's normal to feel overwhelmed, particularly when you've been riding one horse for such a long time. So long as you feel safe and enjoy riding him, nothing else matters. You are a wonderful owner and Enzo will have a fabulous life with you.

Exactly what I tried so poorly to say too ❤
What a stunner, considering he was picking up on your energy (as you know they do) he coped with everything so well. What an amazing confidence builder that has been for you both. I just love his movement and lines. You have brought a beauty. Really looking forward to your next blog. This was even more amazing considering this was all achieved without practicing the test.

Re: naughty behavior during a break: in dog training we have a saying: "unrewarded behavior will soon extinguish itself". It should work for Enzo too!
I like that way of phrasing it, thank you xx
What a great start on your new journey together. 2nd place and your first frilly of many more to come I'm sure. I love Ems poker face haha. She gives nothing away. Thanks for being there to film for Tina and us all Susie . Without you, we wouldn't be able to take part in this new journey with you all. Here's to a bright future and fun times ahead x
Such a lovely vlog❤ I think its so refreshing to see real emotions it shows you care and that is exactly you. Never apologise for being true and honest.

Congratulations on your first frilly with Enzo here's to many more❤
He seems perfect for your future equestrian plans. He is so elegant. 🐴💗
Excellent start , what a good boy & his first rosette 🎉. Banks definitely needs a pony party with his mummy ❤then peace will rein 🤩
Awhh bless you. The pair of you did absolutely brilliantly and I couldn't believe how relaxed he was, and that showed in his tests. Well done you, you are very obviously doing a grand job, despite not believing in yourself!
A mirror can be a helpful way to reduce jealousy or anxiety in horses, especially if the jealous horse is feeling lonely or overly focused on the new one. It can distract them, give them a sense of companionship, and help calm them down. This is how we solved the problem, and it can be a temporary or even permanent solution for you. You’ve got this-you’re awesome!
Wow to achieve this when you have only had him a month is a testament to you and how chill Enzo is. He is super smart ❤
Well done to you both 😊xxx
Love Suzie in the background whispering about the scores like an announcer.
She’s so funny xx
I’m only at 2 mins 40 seconds and I had to leave a comment to let you know you are more than capable. You and enzo are amazing together yous will be great you will get used to it also don’t worry to much it will all work out and you will be looking back asking why you ever questioned yourself ❤❤

You are awesome.....You are powerful....You have a big heart.....Thank YOU for being YOUxxxxx
Thank you ❤️
Well said❤
Carrot/treat stretches on the ground to help improve the stretchy walk… encourage the stretch down. Help him learn how far he really can stretch. 👍
Is there a new career on the cards for Banksy?
So exciting to see you and Enzo again!!!🎉🎉🎉
I think you might have become a bit overexcited on the morning. Being overexcited is a stressful and frustrating feeling.

You are an excellent rider. It's early days. I, and most of your followers, think you are doing brilliantly. 🤗❤ A shout out to Emily & Suzie❤
I bet it's lovely to have Em there because of her recent young horse experience with Addy! The tips and tricks of youngsters!
Omg T, you and Enzo 😍 just suit each other so well, I really think your kind sweet and empathetic nature is going to be so beneficial for him! Such a great match together, don’t get me wrong, love Banksy for you but for a second horse, your horse skills are just increasing out the roof with someone so different!
Love that you share the low and high, because that is 100% what all our journeys are like!! I remember when I got my boy thinking am I the right person for him 😂 he’s stuck with me now haha

Fantastic result well done. He's such a calm and relaxed boy at the show took everything in his stride. Love watching you both grow together and your journey together.
You guys did terrific! Enzo is a phenomenal mover! ❤
Tina you are so capable of riding and competing any horse you ride Banksy and he's not for the light hearted and you ride him incredibly
Great Result ! My horse also does not enjoy peppermint but loves a crunchy butterscotch!
Enzo is a really lovely horse. The only way to learn and gain experience, is to get out there and do it! You are doing exactly the right thing. If I could suggest re mounting......with out tack, lead him up as you doing, but work on him standing without the contact of the reins. He's anticipating you, and then you are having to hurry your actual mount. Still he's learning fast, and obviously a very intelligent chappy. Congratulations.

Congratulations
He looked gorgeous
You did a great job 👏 ❤
Helpers were awesome too
Excellent start , what a good boy 🤩 Banks definitely needs a pony party 🎉 with his mummy then peace will rein 🥰
Yep he has one lined up!!hehe.
Well done! You should be really proud of you and Enzo! ❤
Awe bless you Tina. It will feel like this with a new horse. It's not to soon. With Enzo only being a baby I would class this as experience for him get him used to going out. You are both new to eachother and I think it be great experience and it only a local show.. someone I know would say the same thing as me. It's not to soon. I think it will do him some good is well. He's absolutely gorgeous 🤩 and banksy is well xx
What a gorgeous boy. Elegant horse!
Big hugs 🤗 to you Tina and Enzo. You rode Enzo so well and he did two lovely tests for a baby. He is just going to get better and better and a lovely blue frilly too ❤ well done 😊
You did great.Enzo is a wonderful horse
Thanks Debbie xx

Well done to the both of you, go on girl show those who were quick to give little negative comments in one of your training vlogs xx
He is so incredibly stunning!!! ❤❤ I keep thinking he will go sub 30 easily with more training!!! And such a good boy too!!! ❤❤ Banksy beeing jalous is natural...... He is used to your attention all the time!!! But as long as he gets his outings and his part of the fun, he will be happy to share the workload!!! Just still new to all of you...... ❤❤ You definently did the right thing buying Enzo!!!
25:20 I don’t do watermelon either… bitter.. with or without salt. 😂 dandelions… dandelion greens in salads and dandelion wine 🍷👍. Great job on first outing… Enzo attitude was amazing. He’s looking so well. STOP doubting yourself Tina 😉
Huge congratulations 🎉 you 2 looked so good! He’s getting the hang of things. Hugs and 💕
Thank you so much!! He’s such a sweetie xx
Well done Tina & Enzo, love watching you both together. 🎉
My horse acts the same way around me with other horses as banks with Enzo. It's pure jealousy🙈 he shares a field with a 4 year old ,he won't even let me pet the mare/share treats etc but once I'm not around they get on like a house on fire! Hopefully time will help 🤞❤ it just shows how strong your bond is! They're like toddlers having tantrums! X
I'm on a new baby horse journey too (4 yr old racer) and I'm learning to not rush, take things at the horses pace and be kind to myself. Loving watching your journey....love the y food as well but the calories in it don't like me 😅😅😅
You are doing what’s right for yourself and horses.
What wonderful finish to your day 🎉 The positives should always outweigh the negatives and you certainly had plenty to be positive about after completing your first comp with bubby Enzo 😊 xx
Well, whatever anyone else thinks, I think you did a very good job. First time out, with a young horse that is still pretty new to you, and you manage a second place? Respectable marks on both tests. I'd be more than happy with that! By the way, you are making me think about getting back in the saddle, which would probably be foolish considering how long it's been since I last rode, and the shape my body is currently in. LOL.
Here in year three with my first greenie, and we have ALL questioned ourselves an infinite number of times-and it's ok
Well done Tina... ⭐👏 He's going to be fab for you. Best of luck 🍀 for the future events 💜 ps love your support team 🥰
Ah Tina, It's all very easy for us to sit here in our comfy chairs and critique, but honestly please don't be so hard on yourself, I can already see a huge improvement in his carriage and as you said he is SO polite, so willing and so chill, yet forward going..I think you are going to go far with this young lad, and I am here for the watching of it, may I also say thank you for sharing with us 🥰
What a good baby! You took good care of each other. A great partnership is in the works.
Aww, Tina. You have always had the welfare of your horses first and foremost. It's human nature to second guess (okay, some more than others). But, to come away from not only two different BD tests, but getting yours and Enzo's first frlly. I can remember that struggles that Emily had with a younger Addie. And, correct me if I'm wrong, Emily, that you found help through Steve Young Horsemanship. Maybe he might have a way of mounting safely? Tina, don't change who you are or what you do, because we love you because of who you are. 😊
Your feelings are understandable ,first time in a long time it isn't Banksy and fyi you are more than capable to do this. Don't sell yourself short ❤❤❤
My gelding has a horrible forelock and my mare hates standing still for forelock braiding so we just throw a bonnet on and call it a day 10/10 recommend 😅
Big hug and thank you 😊
What if you took Banksy with, for Susie to show? Just a thought... But yeah, if you didn't have second thoughts and questioning, we'd all be concerned! Oops about the wrong test but you've now got stuff to solidly work on
Tina,, you are so kind, knowledgeable and a 1st class horse lady. We 'horse' people all have our 'own' journeys with our horses. You need to enjoy this journey and do it your way, there's no wrong or right, only educate (which u r doing). Love your videos but its a shame to see you crying when u should be enjoying him ❤ i use my husbands youtube account, fyi my name is Ginny 😊
You've got this Tina is Banksy bored and ready to go back out
Yup agreed!! A party for him soon!!x
Aweeee you did well Tina just chill out more everything will be alright Rome wasn’t built in a day as the old saying goes. Banksy was so jealous you should ignore him or put him in the field before you start with Enzo. He makes me laugh you’d think he was a 5 yo not Enzo lol. Keep smiling and positive and breathe.tfs🤗🏇🤗
He seems like he just wants a loose rein to stretch his neck out a bit. Y’all did so lovely! Gratz!
Yep I definitely needed longer rein and longer stirrups!!
You both look so good together ❤❤❤
Exciting 🎉
Tina 👏you👏are👏more👏than👏capable, you deserve this more than anyone else.
You have tried so so hard to get where you are, you got this girly 🫶🏻 we love you
Also Enzo already looks 10x more comfortable in him self and holding him self you have done amazing in such a short time you two will go far and don't think you are abandoning banks because you aren't
Sorry for the waffle 😂🫶🏻🫶🏻
I think your horse got mad because you put him back in the horse box and had an attitude when he came back out.😅. It seems he doesn't like loved on ,as Banksy sucks up on all the lovin 😅😅😅❤❤❤
Lucky you to have a caller for the test. I did a wrong test and promptly got eliminated. 😮
That’s odd you shouldn’t have been eliminated, help should have been offered xx
My horse does NOT tolerate being alone. That is the one time she gets destructive. I can't blame her for that shes a herd animal
None of my Irish bred racehorses liked mints or polos to begin with 🤣 now they love them! P S he's so handsome
Don't hard yourself you got beautiful 2 horses but you got to try share horses Banksy and Enzo please share love both don't left him out okay ❤
You are a lovely pairing, so elegant❤ You must be so excited for the future. What is Enzo's breeding.
Good Booooooyyyy! 😂 why does every horse woman say it like that 😂
❤❤❤❤❤🐎🐎🐎
Love to you ❤
How have you been feeling? Have you gotten any diagnosis?
Sorry, the wheatgrass was crushed to a juice. Fresh clean energy.
Its always abit difficult when you get a new friend, banksy has had your attention for a long time. But i bet you still feel guilty
Wheatgrass was a big thing in the 90's.
