    FEI World Championships for Single driving live now

    While it isn't minis, if you're interested in driving check out the live stream from the World Championships in Austria. Not sure how much longer it will be going on but iI think it is well worth the watch! https://youtu.be/PHA_mVoaDOg

    Lost Another Member of the Family

    So sorry to hear about the loss of your boy. I remember when you posted about his getting hurt. My thoughts are with you and your family

    Yep, they buckle on the ends. Since the only other reins I've had also had a buckle I had no idea that they were made without buckles. I was taught by my trainer to put the end of the reins (buckled) over my pinky finger so that you keep them off the ground and also have a hold of them no...

    Frontier Carriages??

    I would love one, too. From what I understand though they still haven't made one and there are people wanting them. Hopefully they will make them soon! They aren't cheap though :-(

    I got the Rebel (in metallic purple no less). I added in the marathon shafts and wheels so I'm hoping that it will be a good vehicle for pretty much anything I want to do. Last night I practiced braiding Mikey's mane. He thought he had it good until he had to stand in the cross ties for about 2...

    Yes, my whole harness is synthetic. I really like the brown lining, it contrasts nicely with pony and works well with my wood Meadowbrook style cart. Even the owner at my barn thought it was leather initially until he touched it. In the end he was pretty happy with using it while training. My...

    Marsha - the Comfy also has a strap that connects the breast collar to the saddle. He's got so much hair it's hard to see. With that in mind, either today or tomorrow we're going to spend time on braiding to see what works best for his mane. A little over a week and we'll be at our first...

    That's the main reason I love my Comfy Fit. The last time we finished driving I just took it out to the wash rack, sprayed it down and scrubbed off the sweat then hung it to dry. By the time I was done bathing Mikey it was ready to put away. I picked up a pair of reins from Tammy, too! I...

    Your Drive Day

    The nice thing with Larry is he's done many years of dressage both driving and riding. He's quite the character and I highly recommend him if he's close to anyone and offering lessons. We had a nice drive last night though I did find that Mikey had gotten a small rub from his boot on his right...

    Your Drive Day

    It definitely is a skill that takes time! The CDE will be August 12-14th in Ethel, WA. It is a bit of a trek but if you like driving it is well worth it in my opinion. Friday will be dressage, Saturday the marathon, and Sunday is cones. You can get the address and tentative schedule here...
