First Ride

First ride was successful. I just did walk/trot stuff and although she's a bit rusty, she didn't do badly. I just need to work on refining her head-down cue, transitions, and getting me back in the game of being consistent and concise with my cues. We both need work. I believe I need to get a saddle that fits her better before we can get into any serious cantering training...I put her saddle on and from the ground pushed down on the saddle horn..and she started to pin her ears and raise her head. So, it's definitely pinching or pressing badly on her withers. It's just a matter of finding the right saddle and being able to afford it. Anyways, not much else to say for now, just gotta keep plugging away at it!
