I haven't done a bloghop in a good long while, and since daylight is becoming more and more elusive, I figured other bloggers would be spending more time penned up indoors like I am and looking for a way to release that energy.
Fear not, I come bearing gifts of the bloghop kind!
Most people I know of got their horses from good, honest sellers, so this isn't a rescue type before/after deal (although, if you horse is a rescue case, go ahead and share!). More like a before and after of their training progress, personality changes, or even of them growing up!
I have shared tons of before and after Spud media, so #sorrynotsorry for the additional photo dump that is about to occur.
We will start with some Before and After's of Suzie's conformation:
 |
March 2013 - after about a week of having her home. |
 |
June 2016 - retired and looking pretty snazzy for
23 years old! |
And when we did the riding stuff:
 |
Our first ride in March 2013. |
 |
Reining clinic in the Summer of 2015. |
 |
Doing the Jumpy Thing in March 2014. |
 |
And then going into the Hunter ring August 2015 like nbd. |
 |
Attempting Reining in 2014. |
 |
Reining at the end of 2015. |
Can't forget the little man Spud and his amazing change:
 |
That time he actually looked like a potato.
September 2014. |
 |
This Spring, 2016. |
And of course, the changes in his driving training:
 |
From Green Pony + Green Owner, September 2014. |
 |
To respectable citizens in August 2016. |
Plus, his sweet harness upgrade:
 |
Because everyone starts somewhere... right?
November 2014 |
 |
He isn't so sore on the eyes now.
August 2016. |
