HorseGal gets carriage ride
Just sharing these pix of our new Guest Writer. HORSEGAL, enjoying a cart ride behind Gilford our 3 yr. old perch/arab on a VERY blustery day.
Of interest, Gilford’s Boa horseboots on hind feet, and our use of a kicking strap.
Afraid it’s fuzzy but I was on horseback, nearly getting blown out of the saddle!

**UPDATE** See Gilford in July pulling a training cart, along with his baby brother Glendale being ponied at 11 months old, on posts Horse Peaches Training Cart and Carriage Driving Young Horse. Many others Blogs discuss Gilford’s training, especially in August 06.
**PREVIOUSLY** See Gilford at 3 months old, ponied alongside his mom in Acadia National Park, Maine, at Blog post Baby Colt in Acadia.

What a beautiful horse and carriage. I am aspiring to do this my with Percheron cross one of these days. I am looking very closely at those Boa boots.
