Example Post: As Baxter cantered down the ring, he tucked his head, raised his back, and picked his fet up. he was a prefectionist, and his favorite person in the whole wide world was sitting on his back. As Laken turned him across the diagonal, he did a perfect lead change. Thats what they were working on today. No strenuose work for Baxter, becusae the vet said he might injure his leg again. But thats the way he liked it. Nice relaxing workouts, whole days in the paddocks, with his friends, and wordeful care from Laken. The only reason he was working s hard was for her. Although he loved competing, regular work oiut were boring. They did enter in a show here and there, when Laken could pay the entry fee, but usually only cheep schooling shows. Although they alwasy came i first, getting blues, he still didnt compete much. Thats the way he liked it. Now it was time for jumping. He was only doing some small jumps today, and as he headed towar the small warm uop jump, and umped it several times, he was ready and pumped for a full course. His leg barely hurt, so he was ready. As they cantered toward the first jump, he jumped it perfectly. It was a small cross rail, and as they tunred toward the second and third slightly bigger jumps, he was ready to go. Cantering swiftly towards them, he jumped the second, then the third, clearing them by inches. He cleard the fourth and fifth jumps with several inches, and cleared the sixth with almost a foot to spare, and the seventh wth the same space tween him and the jump, and the eight even more. But he was tirin out, and as they headed toward the ninth and final, and highest jump, he took off. He had had a bad take off to begin with, and ashe jumped the three foot fence, he only cleared it by an inch. Oh well, his leg was getting sore now anyway.
As Laken Colled him out, untaked him ,and hosed him off, and dried him, she began to wrap his leg with an iceback, to make his le feel better. They had to do this after every work out now,but he didt mind, more time to spend with Laken. As Laken Began to bandage, he nuzzled er back as she work on his left fore leg, putting the ice pack on and putting banddages around it. She responded with a scratch and a treat. Laken mainly onl gave carrots and apples, but today he got a real treat: a pepermint. Gobbling it down, he asked for more, but Laken only had enough to give to Sugar and Jd. Baxter didnt mind sharing with his best frieds, so heclosed s eyes and waited whileLaken finished the wrapping them put him back in his stall. Nuzzling her before she went to go excersie Jd, he knew she would be back, but still, he loved her, and loved to show he did.
