So I'm bored and decided I'd post a little about myself. My name is Evan and I'm 21. Haha big surprise. I have two mares a quarter horse and an Arab. I'll post some pictures. I hope they're not huge. I'm posting from my phone. My Arab is belle the flaxen chestnut. Shes 28 and Athena is my quarter horse also chestnut and is 5. Attachments:

in three months i had her so much slower and neck reining, we had a blast on the trails. ignore my terrible riding, haha. she was finally beginning to lower her head on her own and her trot felt like floating on a cloud.

the guy who had the mare before the girl i got her from had pulled back to hard on the reins when breaking her and tore her cheeks so she rides ten times better on a loose rein. lol.

then athena ran into a fence 4/9/2011 and i have only been able to ride her twice . she hit her radial nerve and was dragging her leg. now she has muscle atrophy and is paddling her left foot slightly. she's mad a HUGE recovery and i know my little girl will be back <3 muscle atrophy

Beautiful horses! You look like a great rider too. I am sooo sorry about Athena, how sad :[ Looks like she has made an outstanding recovery though!

In order to give Athena better care and get her back into riding I think I may part with my Arab so I could afford maybe a better barn where I can afford to pay extra to have somebody work with Athena for me when I can't be there. Anybody in the states wanna adopt a 28 year old Arab mare? Lol. This injury really turned my life upside down and there is like no information on the internet. Very few success stories.

i'm hoping to place her with a riding instructor or a family with children that want a pony to ride around.
