silkyravenWow. Sorry. Been a while! Lots of exciting updates in Dino-land! The biggest being he moved house. I think I said we were looking at somewhere in my last post and we’ve been there for about a month now. It’s wonderful! He’s out 24 hours a day, with the lovely Popsicle, in the middle of the countryside in Epping. We have hacking with only the very smallest of roads that are mostly empty. We are loving it!
Being able to hack on my own is amazing! He’s really beginning to settle and we can get all the way to Harold’s Park Farm on our own which is a local competition venue so I think we’ll have a go at some dressage in September. I need to get going with agility stuff again as that’s fallen by the wayside whilst I’ve been out hacking! The new yard is a working farm so we’re still getting used to lots of noisy farm equipment and such but not being on that main road is great.
David came out yesterday and says Dino is pretty good. Bit of odd new stiffness in his lower spine just on the left side so I should probably get myself checked to make sure I’m not causing him an issue. I’ve not really been doing my physio or anything lately so hardly mysterious. I need to get my routine sorted. I was concerned that being out at grass all the time would be bad for his feet, but although he is a bit over-weight he’s not terrible and we have ideas for how to divide up the grazing better to keep their weight under control. So all good! Very glad I made the move!
