Other: Chip is usually poking, but he gets going fast over jumps. He has a wonderfully smooth canter when his stride is extended. Otherwise, OUCH. In other news:) Chip and I met at a farm where I took lessons. He originally belonged to a boarder who needed someone to exercise him and I was the lucky victim. It turned out, she moved, with Chip.. Later I saw them at a local show when Ryan and I were showing Justin, and I spoke with his owner. She ended up selling Chip to us in the months to come, and now he happily lives here. He spooks at other horses (that's how I ended up falling off of him--> in that top picture you can probly see the dirt stain on my right knee), and he gets tired sometimes and decides to lie down right in the middle of a lesson and roll around in the dirt.
