Hello everybody
My name is Manca, I'm 18 and I am a very proud owner of holsteiner mare and a pony.
I've been riding for almost 10 years and I got my mare 5 years ago, and pony a year later.
I ride english style, though I would really love to try western once. I didn't have an opportunity yet... I only trail ride with my mare, but when I was still in riding school I used to jump. Well, I started to jump, but then my parent figured out the competitions will cost as much as owning a horse, so we build a small stable and bought a mare. We found out later it gets more expensive than showing a school horse :P
I didn't ride since september
My mare (Cand) has sacroiliac problems. It's started to get a bit better, and vet believes she'll be ok to ride. I hope so... She's the best and very unique horse to ride. I love her so much.
And a pony will never be ridden. He is my rescue, saved from 'laminitising' himself to death. He was fed so much oats and corn, and never let out, didn't have his feet done in who knows how long. His hoof bone is rotated, but he is almost sound after 4 years of very good farrier and diets. He is fine on soft ground, but lame on hard ground.
So, I think that's all :P
That's a very nice forum here, I really like the look and how it is organized.
P.S. Sorry for mistakes. English is not my mother tounge and it causes me some troubles sometimes...
Cand and me
