Thanks HB, I got her and her son. She's 15 and he's 8....he screams for her all the time. They've only been separated a few times. I hope she was turning today because of the wind. I usually don't ride when it's windy. I was on a 3 yo in my roundpen yrs ago. Thought that would be a safe place to work her a little, she spooked and turned at a fast trot. I hit the top rail, broke 3 ribs, punctured a lung and it partially collasped. Walked to she house and had my son drive me to the hospital. It wasn't a very good Good Friday for me. Got out of ICU on Easter afternoon.
If Chuck wouldn't have been here today, I wouldn't have got on her. My friend is coming tomorrow to ride. She has a horse that hasn't been ridden much. I'm riding Jas with her, then we're coming back and trying some of her bits on Dolly.
I used the Tom Thumb on my other horses, then after reading how severe they were, switched to full cheek snaffles, then ended up getting bitless bridles for Jas and Belle....not brave enough to try it on Dolly yet.
