I AM contemplating trying her in a hackamore, though. Any thoughts?
Anyway, because I couldn't ride, Lucy got a good grooming and then a 1/2 hour snuggle session with Kenny while I cleaned her paddock.

| yes Cairo, we know you're jealous. |

Cute, cute pictures! Only thing I've ever heard about hackamores is steering can be a bit questionable at times but give it a whirl. If you're in a ring/indoor, the rail will help with the steering. Have fun and hope Lucy's mouth heals quickly!
ReplyDeleteSteering I'm not too worried about; it's the stopping that I want to make sure is possible! lol. It's worth a shot, right?
DeleteCairo is very expressive!
ReplyDeleteshe is too funny. she's a talker, too.
DeleteCario is so dramatic. Cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteshe really does have a lot of opinions! :)
DeleteGreat pics! I use a hackamore on Tucker and he LOVES it! I can't use it all the time because he starts to lean on it, but it's a great tool to have in our box of tricks. Let us know how it goes :)
ReplyDeletedo you feel like you have some decent brakes with it? that is my main concern.
DeleteI ride my ottb in his halter all the time:) Of course, he is super voice command; I have never had a brake issue in it, believe it or not!
ReplyDeleteWhat about doing some lunge line lessons with her in a halter? Take it back to basics and perfect your already really great position? My friends and I lunge each other not infrequently keeps me honest:)
