I like Caprice, but it reminds me of the rapper Caprice.
I'm going along the lines of Levi-Leona-Layla...something like that.
I went and rode her today..well, first we did a lot of groundwork, but she's sooo pushy. She's definately a project. I have not seen kicking or biting though. To be honest, I think the people probably couldn't afford her but didn't want to say so.
I walked and trotted her around-I thought she was going to be a little speedy and rarin' to go...she was quite the opposite! She was pretty happy, relaxed, and listened well. Maybe even a little lazy. I forgot my bridle and just rode in my hack...and she has some good brakes. She does not like to stand still, but we'll work that out. The place I'm boarding at always has horses turned out in the arena, so I had to ride right next to the barn, and she did want to turn back a little bit towards the barn door...but with a little correction and asking her to go she listened.
She does NOT like to be in the barn. She gets nervous. She circles and paces and won't stand still. I couldn't cross tie her, she was just too agitated. I don't know what happened to her, she used to be real laid back.
And I didn't want to say anything...but I'm 99% sure now...I'm probably going to be moving onto a 30 acre property with a friend of mine. It's completely fenced (mainly for cows but we can have horses out there), and has a 3 bedroom house.
The rent is so cheap...$400/month total! It's ridicuously cheap. Anyways, so if everything goes okay over the next week, I'll probably move her out there and she'll be in my backyard.
I can't wait.
