Brady Lou and Appie. They worked out for a bit. Appie is so lazy and doesn't want to run. She got a little crazy and decided to rodeo. Bradley thought it was fun. Brady didn't. She got a good buck on and hit her nose on the saddle horn. As is well. She got back on.
Okay, here is the new member of our herd. This is Chevy. She is a 4.5 yr old paint with blue eyes. She is a very good mare. When we got her, she still had a 7 mo old colt on her. She had never had a saddle on her or a rider. Well, Bradley took care of that pretty quick. We had only had her a week and he began working her. He was riding her with in a day of getting a saddle on her. I was a nervous wreck. This is a picture of the first time he ever rode her. She did really great. She trusts Bradley so it was a pretty smooth event. Now, yesterday was another story. She got spooked and ran off after Bradley saddled her. We caught her up the road and Bradley tried to mount her on the road with some cars around. She wasn't having it. She took off while he was getting on. He got drug down the road and thrown into a ditch. Chevy went on home after that and Bradley brushed himself off and went home too. They tried again, and she did fine. He rode her for about half an hour and then it started raining so he came home.
She is a good horse and will make a good kid ride for someone. Bradley is thinking about getting a foul off her and selling her to a family with kids, but Kevin said no. He said it's the only horse that likes him, so he is keeping her.
