Oooh, I like those videos. Very impressive performance from Tom, I must say.
Well done Tom. Looks as if he’s enjoying himself.
We don’t hear much about Vin these days. Is he OK?
Annie, Tom’s a very talented but occasionally very naughty boy. He’s also extremely intelligent which sometimes can be scary 🙂
Susie, Vin is good. I’ve found a treatment for his head-shaking which has had such a dramatic effect that it has also restored his ‘personality’ to his old self. Unfortunately he can’t be ridden because of soft tissue damage near his off-hip. I’m looking for a home for him as a companion, probably for a year.
So pleased to hear that you’ve found a cure for the head-shaking. Perhaps you’ll post about it one day? Hope that Vin’s sabbatical will see him restored to fitness.
Excellent news about Vin. He could come live in my garden, but it has no grass and a lack of horse friendly facilities.
