More likely a transformation of her coat rather than her condition since she's on a HUGE pasture but ya know, Imma try and whip her butt back into shape. 

For anyone who doesn't know me & the girl. Bella is my Paint/TB mare, she'll be 8 July, 9th (2016). I got her as an unbroken 2 year old and brought her along myself. She's (lightly) schooled up to 3'6" in the ring and she also has schooled exactly one Prelim cross-country fence (thank you to that trainer for not taking my joke as a joke). She's such a sweetheart but also your typical mare so... ya know... whatever. Idk, if you've got questions feel free to ask I really don't know what else there might be to say about my wonderful baby girl.

As of March 10th she'd had roughly 8 to 9 months off with only being ridden once or twice a month (very very lightly) and being lunged a couple of times before I put her back under saddle.

April 1st she got chiropracted and April 2nd she got her shoes back on.

January 10th (Not originally intended for transformation purposes.

Nothing in Feb. as she was still on her break.

March 10th (Bought my new saddle, officially back into full work!)

March 17th (Week 1, so out of shape lol.) 

(hope you enjoyed her silly face)

March 25th 

April 9th (Oops I forgot to do pictures last week.)

First: Updated pictures are coming!

Second: Chao I was traveling to them. Sadly since her husband died she hasn't been able to have me come back out. I'm not super expensive but it's a bit more than she could handle so I just settle for pictures of Val on my FB feed! He's doing well, just fat. I think she's finally taken him off some of that excess feed though and he's slowly dropping that weight! She's only about 15 minutes from my house, in the other direction of Bella, so I could have continued working for her if she could afford to have me come out. It's worked out okay though because with school I'm super busy so while I miss the money I'm glad I'm not stressed out and choosing to ride for cash over riding Bella.
