Veteran's day ride and weight gain

Had a beautiful ride yesterday. We took the summer roads and rode all the way to Coulee Hite Rd via the summer roads. It was glorious. Getting as much riding in as I can before winter hits. Artax is gaining so much weight! Victory! His top line is filling in nicely and his ribs are hardly showing! I think I finally found the solution to helping keep his weight up. I'm going to have his teeth checked by the vet regardless in the spring.

Now to Work on weight gain and snow

Artax is doing wonderful with ground driving and is obeying my commands well. We'll be hooking him up to a tire soon. We just have to get a warm day. He still could use some improvements in his weight. We're going to be adding supplements to his diet. Also it will be getting a fecal sample and getting an appointment for the equine dentist to look at his teeth since he is showing signs of his teeth needing floating. It started to snow right after I put him away.

November ride

I've been trail ridding Artax on the surrounding trails where I keep him boarded. I hope to get him off the property and trail ride him at Riverside State Park this month. Hopefully take a lesson or two in dressage. Pics from today.
