Sam smiled, her eyes dancing."Western and trails," she said carefully."And we are also looking for a stallion for her to breed her with." Shady looked at her and snorted, allowing Sam to grip her halter and open the stall door.

She stepped to the side to let Sam by. She watched the mare, she had read Sam's lips. I looked back at Sam and spoke,
Should I go get her tack?
I questioned, wondering which one I would get if she responded 'yes'.

Sam smiled and nodded."Sure. Its the black saddle in the tack room. The biggest one. And her bridle is black also and hanging above the saddle," she said carefully. After she told her, she led the mare to the cross ties and began to groom her quickly.

She nodded and made her way to the tack room. She quickly found the saddle and bridle based on the description based on Sam's description. She cradled the saddle over her arm and grabbed the bridle in her hand. She then made her way back to Sam.

Sam looked at her and smiled. Shady was groomed and ready to be ridden."You wanna tack her up or should I?" Sam asked. The mare looked at them and snorted softly.

I read her lips and then responded,
I can tack her up.
I smiled and put the pad on Shady's back and then gently placed the saddle on top of it. I straightened them and reached under Shady's barrel to grab the girth. I adjusted it and moved to her head. I grabbed the bridle and sliped it over her head, slipping the bit in her mouth gently. I stroked her face and went back to the girth, making sure I had adjusted to fit right.

Shady snorted when the it was placed in her mouth but behaved. Looking back at teh girl, she wondered why she didn't mount yet. Was she too big? Or did she do something wrong? Sam watched, smiling softly.

ooc|| English or Western? And in the arena?
I grabbed my helmet and put it on my head, not buckling it yet. I gently grabbed the reins and lead Shady outside.
ooc|| I am really sorry it is so short, I just don't know what style or where she will be riding. Me ish very sorry.

((Western of course and probably in the ring outside.))
Sam led teh way to the ring, putting her hands on her hips as soon as she saw Josh lunging a horse int there."Hey buddy with no shirt, scat," she hollared, walking over. Josh jumped and looked at Sam."Hey you were suppose to be working int eh office today," he said slowly. Sam glared at him."Well I want one of my friend's to go for a ride aroudn the ring, thankyou very much. Now.. GET OUT!" she bellowed at him. He jumped but teh horse merely looked at her. Josh led him out, grumbling and Sam smiled at Rae."You can go in now," she siad, facing her.

I only knew what the guy was saying since I was watching him. A small smile curved my lips as he passed and sent a smile my way. After he had passed I lead Shady into the arena. I guided her to the rail, I turned her to face the rails and I mounted her.
ooc|| Ahhh! First person is my habit! It is so difficult to break from it! I am really sorry, it just slips. I am switching now. I didn't realize it until I was this far in.
She bent over, sticking her other foot in the stirrup. She didn't need to adjust the stirrups luckily. She looked to Sam,
Warm him up first?
She questioned, taking the reins in her hands. Her weight shifted in the saddle, her gaze shifted towards the barn.
ooc|| Okay, I know near nothing about western, so I wll try my best. I know you can hold the reins in either one hand or both, depends what class and style I guess. I held the reins with both hands, but I rode a TWH. I seriously will try my best.^-^

Sam smiled and nodded, perching herself on the top rail."Just run her through the basics," Sam said. Shady snorted softly and stretched her neck, wanting to go.
((Thats ok. Its just like english just the saddle's bigger, has a horn, and you don't have to worry so much about posture.))

I nodded and gently tappedher sides with my boots, she moved forward at a walk. I held the reins lightly in my hands, my hands poitioned right infront of the horn and perched in mid-air, not resting on anything. My hands were low, but not resting on the saddle of the horses neck. My heels were down, knees out. My back was straight, my shoulders and hips alligned. Once I was comfortable with that gait I nudged Shady's sides and asked her to trot. I kept seated, her gait was clam and smooth. I worked her in circles, wide and small. I moved her in serpentines, to loosen her up and get her concentrated.

Shady snorted, trotting. Her hooves kicked up small puffs of dirt and her feathers around her hooves seemed to dance. Round and round she went and Sam watched, a smile on her lips. The girl and hte horse seemed to be one but Shady had a carreer ahead of her. Maybe she and Rae could go to teh auctions or the selling arenas and look for a horse jsut for her to stay here.

I looked to Sam, wondering what to do next. I tightened my grip on the reins, wondering how sensitive she was on the bit.
What do you need me to do now?

Shady stopped, looking up at her rider. Sam smiled softly."If your done riding, you cna bring her out and we can untack her. If your not, you can see if you can get her into a canter," she said. Shady snorted and looked forward, her ears back to listen to her rider."She listens to voice commands," Sam added.
