Although we had a bit of rain on Thursday morning and the arena was a sloppy mess, we still got in a few laps outside in the driveway. A "normal" horse would have been fine in the arena, even with the mud.
Not Tango!
Why? Too clumsy...he's a "tripper". Too fast...Tango plus mud is not good, it's too slippery for him to corner quickly. Too risky...he just got new shoes on Monday and pulling one off in the mud could damage his feet.
So, we settled for a few passes down the driveway. But only a few because I don't love the gravel for his precious feet either!
Call me an overprotective Mom but anything that goes wrong wreaks havoc on my checkbook!
