Yesterday evening Orylle got a nice cold shower to combat the hot temperatures. It finally rained here in the evening and now it has cooled down a bit.

Not a picture with a horse.. but now with my other love of my life.. my little four legged friend, Brutus. I love this picture so much, I’m going to hang this one in my garden, on a big scale 😍 So I can remember myself to seize the day, every day 💕
Enjoy summer nights at the beach with my little friend

I was wondering how often your horse have a dental checks? In my country more and more people are aware that equestrian dentist it's not something luxury but mandatory visit. Unfortunatelly there are still many horses that never had teeth check in entire life and suffer quietly due to jaw problems. My horse doesn' t have a lot of issues with mouth, so correction once a year is enough. And how is in your case? Share your story!

Yesterday it was so warm here that we only go into the field. What do you do with your horse when it's over 33 degrees celsius?

Let me preface this with , my horse wasn't having it he buddy sour and it was feeding time. I was instructed for my saddle fitting to plaster my horses back Vs using the wire method. Okay , i am crafty I think I can do this. First I used stick and peel paper that you use for wrapping food . I stuck it to his back. So I could lay the wet plastic gauze over it 2.) Get gauze from Amazon that is already coated in plaster of Paris. 3.) wet gauze and start laying it on his back over the stick and peel so the horse will not be covered in plaster ! Side Note: I will be covered in plaster as will the barn walls , floor and areas at least 10 feet away 4.) Fight relentlessly with the gauze and trying to find the start of the slimy roll and cause a huge mess 5.) Be hopeful my said mold is enough to satisfy saddle maker. 6,) take mold off after 10 to 15 min and set aside 7.) All said and done it works ! I have an exact replicate of my horses back for a fitting 8.) leave mess and clean up for the morning. 9.) i have to put it back on him and get a level and make a Level line across the side and also mark the center of the withers on the mold.
Oh the joy of trying to plastering  your horse for a saddle fitting  !

I am about to eat dinner here in a bit , then head out to the barn to attempt to make a mold casting of my horses back - Wish me luck. Meanwhile I thought I could ask you all what you think on design. I love certain things about of these. The youthful side in my wants a Black and pink saddle with those hotrod flames. on the seat and a black patent leather flap with hot pink trim. But the I also look at the leather versions and I am in love with those as well everything can be custom. If you had to make a dream saddle picking and choosing from the pictures I have displayed discribe what you are designing. ... Thanks
Help me design my new  Jockey saddle
