Taylor's Ponies...

Well, this is Taylor's 1st pony...Squirt.

We bought him in July but we sold him at the beginning of this month.

He turned out to not be a very good choice.

He did really well when we went to look at him but then when we got him home I could

tell he was going to be too much for Taylor.

She is very timid and he was too fast for her.

He didnt try to run off but he was a little jumpy.

He ended up bucking her off one day when I sat her up there with no saddle on...

which we had done before but this particular day he decided he wasnt going to stand for it!!

On top of being bucked off it also happened in front of her cousins and great aunt connie!!

Well, Squirt got quite the spanking for that and we went ahead and put the saddle

on and rode him anyway.

We had Taylor get back on him even though she didnt want to...she was brave and did it.

I dont have a pic of the new pony yet, but his name is Fritz and he is black/white paint.

He is about 17 yrs old and seems to care less what you do with him. So far so good and they are getting along really well.

I will post a pic of her riding when I get one.
