CEDAR….(My Happy Appy!)

This photo was taken at Mount Rogers. On one of the trails in the Crest Zone. That is Boobie Dog off to the right.Cedar is wearing a special fly mask with ear protection. I have my oil skin chaps and oil skin hat and several layers of clothes on….

 

 

Cedar is a mare I purchased at Ken Treadway’s. She was a great ride! Never mareish  and steady all ways. Where you pointed her head she went! She was a lot of fun to ride and all she knew I taught her my self!  I really enjoyed her.

When she turned 5 years old she started bulking up in her hind end. She was a real nice built horse and could do the job. But I noticed my ride was becoming bouncy and rough. Like riding in a wagon. By the time she was 7 I was miserable, she was killing my back!

FYI, I liked Cedar so much I purchased an Appy horse sticker for my truck!

But because of my back… I found her a good home and she went to live in the NC mountains with a nice lady.

Cedar one of many in that search for my perfect horse! (she was a good one!)
