Trot, trot, trot, ...

Mommy and Avery on Diano

Since Mommy STILL will not let me ride solo, I have to make her feel at easy by letting her be in total control while we're on Diano. I just pretend that I'm a simpleton, just tagging along for the ride, although I know Diano responds much better to all of my commands anyway. And Mommy will see all of my skills soon enough ... then I'll be in the rider's seat and she'll be in MY lap. I just need to keep up my weight training and riding regiment.

Here's a video of how our tandem rides have been thus far ... tell me what you think of my positioning, skills, and style?

And yeah, we also go fast ... really, really fast! Here's a video of us trotting around the ring into a full-up gallop!!! Look out Olympics 2028 ... here I come!!!

Please just tell me the truth ...

... do these pictures seem "plain ridiculous" or "just too adorable"??? I really can't tell ... part of me thinks I look as goofy as can be, but then the other part of me thinks that there is a very fine line between goofy and adorable.

And for the record, I typically like to style my hair somewhat, but on the day of the big photo shoot, Mommy and Daddy said we were just too rushed for time and they forgot to help me style my hair. Note that they both seemed to make time to style their hair though ... figures!!!

Oops, Mommy blinked in that one

And a special thanks goes out to Auntie Em for arranging the photo shoot (as a Christmas present). I'll have to return this special gift sometime soon!!!

All technical difficulties have been fixed ...

All technical difficulties have been fixed and all my videos should now work again ... Thanks for the "quick" response action, Google!

The heat is on ...

Just a typical Wednesday night, right before bedtime.
