20 years of JUST LIKE JOE 🧡

This horse means the absolute world to me. 20 years of highs and lows and everything in between. The horse that allowed me to become the rider I am, the trainer I am, the coach I am and the one that I basically owe my entire career to.

The horse that let me compete amongst the best of the eventing world, that let me hold my own when playing with giants, the horse that taught me how to train, how to get back up when everything is s**t, to keep my cool when I need to and to celebrate when I deserve it.

The horse that is still as obnoxious at 25 years old as he was at 5. The horse that still brings me so much joy every time I have the honour of sitting on him, even if these days it's hacking about not eventing.

I've been saving the pictures from this photo shoot for the 20 year anniversary of owning Joe but I missed it by like a month so here they are.

A huge thank you to .mac and for the most wonderful Christmas present and to for capturing the heart and soul of my scruffy little bog pony 🧡

The light of my life, my sun and stars, my pride and joy.
JUST LIKE JOE

What a great day yesterday 🧡🧡

We went out for a hunter trial and Pete was so awesome! He's gaining so much confidence recently!

We had a baby moment when the floor disappeared from under him (there was a ditch 🙃) but he redeemed himself a few fences later by popping a trakehner as if he's been doing it all his life.
The crowning achievement of the day though was following his bestie Woody straight into the water 🥰 I'm so proud!

He's so cute! Finally starting to gain some confidence cross country, Pete has a real block about going in water and he'...

He's so cute!

Finally starting to gain some confidence cross country, Pete has a real block about going in water and he's starting to reliably follow another horse into water now and on Sunday he managed to go into a new water complex without a lead for the first time ever. I'm so damn proud. He's taking time but I think he will be so worth it. 🧡🧡🧡

My horse looks so damn good atm 🥰

Ex-racer Perfect Peter really lived up to his name this week!😻

Peter came to us at NETC to increase his fitness and help get over his fear of water!💦

Peter took to swimming straight away and was like a duck to water 🦆

He started the week off on 6 laps with a heart rate of 122bpm, and ended the week on 14 laps with a heart rate of 115bpm🫀

We look forward to see how Peter gets on in his retraining, hopefully his swimming lessons will have eased his fear🤞🏼
