Oh dear oh me oh my! I forgot to put Jack's picture in there. SHAME ON ME! Jack is my second baby, along with Spirit. He is AWESOME when it comes to bareback riding, smooth as a babies bottom. He is a lil' cutie! I just wuv him! He is a Quarter Horse/Morgan. He too gets tons of attention from me and extra treats. :P



Sorry Jack, didn't mean to forget ya!

I also failed to note the scarf program they have for Ranch. There are 4 levels: green, blue, red, and yellow. Each scarf represents a different level, and requires you to learn different information. You have to get the scarves in order, you can't skip around. I got my red scarf this summer! I was so happy! For the basic level: green, you have to know the basics: saddling, bridling, basic riding, and some terminology (definition of mare, gelding, stallion, etc). For the blue scarf you have to know parts of the saddle, parts of the bridle, bones of the lower leg, parts of the hoof, feeding, identifying leads, and you have to perform a bunch of riding requirements. For the red scarf you have to know teeth & aging, picking up leads, basic first aid, parts of the horse, colors, markings, advanced feeding information, and you have to ride bareback. You have to do a lot of riding stuff too such as executing different patterns at the walk, trot and canter. I can't recall what you have to know for yellow. I was going to go for my yellow, but I didn't have enough time to complete it.
