Dreary fall days

My somewhat cryptic post last night was just my way of revealing that I placed an order for a Devoucoux Makila dressage saddle!! I've had a love/hate relationship with my current dressage saddle since I bought it, so I talked to my dad and decided to have the local rep come out for a fitting. Devoucoux works with a consignment shop (not sure which one) and the lady who runs it offered us a decent amount of money for my current saddle, so bye bye County, hellooooo Devoucoux :) The rep really went above and beyond by offering me a loaner saddle to keep and ride in until mine comes in, which I'm extremely grateful for. 

In other news, Tim has been great recently! I clipped him last week and we're busy prepping for our next show. I'm hoping to take a dressage lesson this week before I go home for fall break, so look for that post in the next few days! 


The Scottish moors or KY..? 

Poultice after every ride...

  1. I hope all works out with the saddle, it looks gorgeous in the photo & I know how happy you've been with your jumping saddle. Hopefully the dressage one is just as fab.
    Will you have it in time for your lesson or is it coming from France & a few weeks away?
    Happy half term ☺
