Horse show




Glenn had yet another great weekend at the horse show.  He is such a good little rider.  It is amazing to me when he can compete against 20 or so riders that have been doing this for years, and bring home ribbons. 

He is on his first year of showing and has taught his Amish cart pony to jump.  Not to say his trainer shouldn't get tons of credit for guiding him through every step, she is great at this.  But even the best trainer (and we believe she is) needs a good student. 

But the best part of the show for Glenn was when I lost my mind and let him have a new dog.  Here is Glenn's new best buddy, Tucker the Chihuahua.  I will say that he is no ordinary Chihuahua or we wouldn't have him.  He is calm, quiet, and house broke, not the usual yappy, nervous dog like most in his breed.  I did some research and found out good training is all it takes.  Babying a little dog makes them fear they have a weak leader and they get yappy, aggressive, and over protective.  Thank you to his original owners.
