Victor and a flying Ziggy

Victor had his first trip Show Jumping and what a star he was 4th in his first jumping class and was so good all day. Ziggy took some flyer's but was also good boy but had a pole down which we where pleased with i have only had him 3 weeks so he still getting used to us and us to him but all good so far bless him. Victor is off doing dressage next week and he will then be affiliated show jumping and will be up for sale soon. Will make someone a super all rounder as just such an easy horse just dead straight forward to ride bless him. Watch this space.

Dowhills Snow Belle

I found this pic of my lovely Belle. Oh cant wait to show her.

Flying Fred

Fred and William went show jumping this weekend. It was Fred s first time so and only the second time indoors but he went clear then had a pole in the jump off (over keen jockey i think Lizzy!!!) but we got these pictures of him. Unfortunately William landed on a stone in the warm up school and went very lame but seems to be recovering.

Our gorgeous Jack Russell puppy Podge is growing in all directions (being an only puppy!) she has opened her eyes and is so sweet bless her.

Ziggy is getting fitter and so am i. We have nick named him Giggy Ziggy as he never walked the first few times out but has now decided its best to up our steep hills.

Meet Ziggy

Ziggy is my new stead who i am really looking forward to having out and about (picture is of him winning the Royal) He is a lovely 16.2hh Hunter type Part bred Cleveland Bay and a lovely sort of horse. Unfortunately we lost Bertie last week (RIP) and i will miss him very much he was a very naughty but dear old sole and we are hoping he goes on hunting forever!!!!!
William and Fred are off to Dressage this weekend. William has grown up a lot since returning from boarding school with Mathew. Fred is going great guns we are so pleased with this little horse he is just getting better and better.
Vic the thick, William's half brother is back in work after being cut and is going very nicely after doing some fitting work we hope to get him jumping again.
The reports on Storm who is being broken by Mathew are good and it seems he has retained his laid back approach to life bless him!! So excited about seeing him out under saddle next year.
And we have a birth in the house Chip the Jack Russell has given birth to 1 baby girl seeming she had 7 last time this is going to be spoilt puppy!!! soooooo cute. Will post pictures when i have them.
