You don't often see them in the dressage arena, but that doesn't mean they can't excel at the sport! RB's owner didn't show, but the two reached into the upper levels with their work. It was lovely to see. And you're right -- he was quite a character! <br /><br />I popped by your website! Very nice! Rogo looks like a lovely fellow. Best of luck with his training!Susan Schreyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11902407971890082541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3956918803111761381.post-36715690476766187082011-02-08T09:06:53.385-08:002011-02-08T09:06:53.385-08:00I found your blog through Rochester Trail Riders -...I found your blog through Rochester Trail Riders - it's working already!

I'm still mourning the loss of my little endurance mare Sally, not to mention, Flikka, her daughter Star, taken much too early, and Mr Fifty. I immortalised Sal in my novella 'Dancing With Fate', a fantasy. I imagine them all playing together in Trapalanda, or over the Rainbow Bridge whichever legend you prefer. I'm sure your horses are there too, greeting RB and showing him the ropes. <br /><br />He looks such a beautiful horse (I love Appies) and obviously loved his work. He'll live on forever, in your heart.Hywela Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789711554354184386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3956918803111761381.post-49098590847886463322011-01-22T07:32:27.324-08:002011-01-22T07:32:27.324-08:00I'm a cat person as well as a horse person, Fr...I'm a cat person as well as a horse person, Fran.
