My Soapbox for Equestrian Writings. Welcome to Equine Ink. Quail, cows and pigs, oh my! August 22, 2016. August 21, 2016. This ride had a few surprises on it — some good (beautiful trails) and some a bit scary (a few new animals). Riding with someone who knows the local trails is a treat. This cute little Morgan has just ended a show career and this was his second time out on the trails. Zelda is so much bigger than he is — we looked like Mutt and Jeff.

How much fun is a horse’s tail? – EQUINE Ink
https://equineink.com/2015/08/04/how-much-fun-is-a-horses-tail
My Soapbox for Equestrian Writings. Welcome to Equine Ink. How much fun is a horse’s tail? August 4, 2015. I love this video of the cat in the horse’s tail. It reminds me of my standard Poodle, Merlin. We got him when he was about a year old and he had never seen a horse before. He used to chase after me when I rode and would grab onto my horse’s tail. My instructor used to laugh until tears ran down her face. You know you don’t have a TB when . . . Finally, some cooler weather. This video is super cute.

Zelda – EQUINE Ink

My Soapbox for Equestrian Writings. Welcome to Equine Ink. May 11, 2016. It’s always a good sign when at the end of a hunt, everyone is smiling. Despite the slightly damp weather we all had fun. This past Saturday was the first time I’ve been out this season. Rain, personal commitments and the inability of my horses to keep shoes nailed to their hooves has been a strong deterrent this season — that and the fact that I just haven’t been ready. My theory is that if she doesn’t buck me off she wonR...
