It wouldn’t be the first day of my senior year of college if I didn’t have to make a 3 hr trip to Lexington to Hagyard cause Kiwi can’t seem to kick this infection. Hope I can make it back to get to my 630 class! #eventerproblems

Who wants to guess which pony was better behaved this morning for wrapping legs? The upper level event horse who has been wrapped hundreds of times for travel and shows, or the barely broken baby who has never had all four legs wrapped before? #TheJ #JazzieFail #eventerproblems #IndyNeedsAHashtag A photo posted by Victoria Law (@dvmeventer) on Aug 25, 2015 at 7:58am PDT

Well, that could have gone better…But the effort counts, right?? #OhCrapHN #NinerFiveOneTango #EventerProblems

“Mom, I don’t think we’re ready for our first show next month. Let’s hang out, eat carrots and peppermints, and visit with my farrier, vet, chiropractor, and massage therapist instead.” #ottb #LoyolaFlyer #eventingproblems #eventerproblems #CleanTrax A photo posted by megan (@megan1123) on Aug 25, 2015 at 9:45am PDT
