Wanda, I hold you *personally* responsible for my latest project. My pony has started driving lessons. At this point we're still in a sidepull, a 30' longe line doubled, and either 'her' saddle (that doesn't fit, afraid she's not a candidate for a treed saddle now) or the surcingle, me huffing and puffing behind her ground driving her all over my pasture. We're okay at a walk, but when we try to trot she and I both sound like frieght trains. Good thing the pony is out of shape!
My neighbor 3 or 4 houses away is old as the hills and loves driving and loves teaching people to drive. He has minis he drives now, but had mules and horses. I called him and he's agreed ot help me break her to harness once I get her really consistent in the lines. It's your fault Wanda. Now she needs a cart and harness and a treeless saddle of some sort... ;) Steph -- "Brutality begins where skill ends."
