Top 10 Signs Your Dressage Test Needs Some Work

10. Your working trot had you working harder than your horse.
9. Your horse confuses the arena rail for a cavaletti; exits at K
8. The shape of your circles reminds the judge that he should pick up eggs on the way home.
7. Your serpentine was perfect, except that it was supposed to be down a straight centerline.
6. The sitting trot has caused some fillings to be loosened in your lower molars.
5. Your horse believes "free walk" means leaving the arena and heading towards the nearest patch of grass.
4. Impulsion improves only after your horse notices the monsters hiding in the decorative shrubbery nearby.
3. In your salute, you inadvertently use your whip hand causing your horse to perform airs above the ground. 
2. Your horse's walk seems to be more "rare" than "medium."

And the number one sign that your dressage test needs more work:

1. Under judge's remarks she writes only: "Nice braid job."

curiosity taught the mare how to open that latch and soon the owner will learn to put a snap lock on that latch!

I can understand the need to go visiting though. 

[Angharad]

Stop...carrot thief! Can't leave a snowman alone in a pasture without some equine snagging his nose! Donkeys are cute...I see them sometimes at horsemen's open houses doing demonstrations of driving. I once rode their cousin on a trail ride in PA. I was with a girlfriend who'd not ridden before and she kept rhapsodizing over how calm the "horse" was and how tall, etc.  Finally I told her she was riding a mule. 

[Angharad]

Hahahaha!

I've never ridden a mule, but I love them.
