Squish - your new mare is really cute. There is a paso at my barn and he is actually a very hard keeper. He is super herd bound and paces the stall and refuses to eat if all the other horses aren't inside too. He is a very slow eater and is very high strung on top of it. He has tiny, tiny feet too. His feet are like the size of a mini's feet.

Marley has been cut back to 2 handfuls of grain 2x per day. She gets her Mega Cell and her thyroid meds (to help with weight loss). She is still going out during the day but stays up at night in her stall. At night is when the horse's go out onto the pasture with the most grass. My grazing muzzle is expected to arrive any day now. She is not a fan of her new diet. I have been riding or lunging her almost every day on top of it.

Somewhere - behind the rider you've become, the long hours in the saddle,
the ribbons you didn't win, the falls you've taken, the tears you've cried,
and the horses you've given your heart to - is the little girl who fell in love
with the sport and never looked back. Ride for her.
