Day 3 with Curly...

Emily's ride went really well today. After yesterday's activities, we knew that Curly would be sore and maybe not too happy to see us. But he showed how sweet he is again and willingly followed Emily to be saddled up.

I'm sure this has to be very frustrating for him. Emily constantly asks him to do things that he's never been exposed to before plus it was really warm in the arena today. The poor guy probably just wanted to hang out in the shade! But he obviously tried to please her. He's turning out to be a great horse and potentially a wonderful match for Emily.

We are still a little worried about his feet and legs. The pre-purchase vet exam will take place tomorrow. Hope we can get the farrier out too....

Emily's trainer, Anita, has been incredibly supportive and helpful during this whole process. There are so many things to consider - I'm sure I would never have attempted this purchase without her guidance.
