XC issues

So... I've been workig n getting a better schedule together- ride on the days I have off, lunge after 24s and after 12s if I get home in time. So far, it's been working for Sherwood. LoL Andi's still being neglected, but hopefully that will be changing soon, too.. THe contractor will be back Friday to give me an estimate to add on to our shedrow complex a tack stall and regular 12x12 stall for Andi- to give us the necessary separation of the ponies so they don't lose their minds, and a place for the farrier to do his work if it should be raining/snowing. Win win!

We've been working on some XC with Andi, and.. it was not progressing the way I was hoping. We were sniffing every jump, stopping dirty, being a butthole, honestly. So... I put front shoes back on him just in case he was reacting to his feet maybe hurting on landing, and I took him to Jess's on MOnday, where we worked on some gymnastics. It went super well. So, we're going to work on those until we get our mojo back. Then we'll head back out to the XC field. 

Sherwood has been working under saddle- I took her to Jess's last week and she got the seal of approval to continue working under saddle- not lame, canter looks weak to the left, but manageable. So... Now we lunge more to the left than right over poles, and I think maybe we'll try another round of shockwave to see if we can get her moving completely comfortably.

Some videos!
