Look At This Girl Go!

Amber is a very special horse. She was orphaned when she was born, so we hand-raised here at Dreamscape Ranch. A lot of the credit for how well Amber has turned out must go to my International Students who did so much wonderful work in feeding her, caring for her and making sure she knew she was safe and secure.

That was a few short years ago, and today Amber is a beautiful and very powerful horse that has no security issues in the least... in fact... she's not afraid of anything.

On Monday September 8th, Sandra, Sara, Doris and I took Amber and "Snicker" down to a local ranch that will be hosting a jumping clinic this weekend, where we were met by Andrew and Jackie who took the video and photos. We already know that Snicker is a willing and capable jumper, but we thought that it would be interesting to see what Amber thought of it all - as she had never jumped before.

Well, as you can tell from the video of Tess taking Amber over the jumps, Amber certainly took to her first jumping experience with relish. Her first couple of attempts were a bit clunky but from that point onwards she knew exactly what to do, and how she wanted to do it.

We're so proud of her!
