Had a hunter show I did good got a second 2 thirds and a fourth I don't know if I'll do a show again but it was definitely fun and different

Amanda Straughan also took photos of me and my favorite beast Berkley. This horse sat in a paddock for a year and a half nothing done with him, so I decided I would do something with him. I start groundwork lessons to work with him and hopefully become a trainer one day. I started doing stuff with him 2 months after I got to Sara’s. I would work with him when I had the chance and do lessons here and there, this horse would spook at anything and everything and have a serious flip out. I am proud to say that little kids can lead him around and all he dose when he doesn’t like something they do is snort. I let them know that they need to listen to him and when he makes that noise that means he doesn’t like what they are doing he’s come along way from where he was and I’m super proud of him!! ❤️

So today I had a jumping lesson with one of the most amazing talented teacher and photographer Amanda Straughan, Not only has she been there for some of the most amazing milestones in my barrel racing journey, she’s also gonna be there for my hunter debut this Sunday. This woman is one of the most selfless, kindest human beings who I have ever met. With all the crap she’s been through she still puts a big smile on her face and captures so many amazing images, not to mention she listens to people’s stories. I appreciate her and everything she dose for me and other people because I know if I were in her shoes I couldn’t do half of the stuff she dose!

This is cowboy who I currently ride he was a asshole to me when I first started out my fault not his and proud to say he's won me pretty much every check ive received (jack won me one) hopefully we will win something at our hunter show this weekend!!

Hi everyone I guess I should introduce myself my name is Sam, I live in British Columbia on the beautiful Vancouver Island. I'm 16 and just started riding last year on November 14 2016. I was about 2 when my dad plop me on a pony knowing I adored horses, little did he actually know he made a bad choice for is finances in the future 😂. Ever sense I can remember I was a horse girl even though I wasn't in lessons (welfare so not affordable) or didn't live on a farm i never grew up around or even near horses but they were definitely a big part of my life and were going to be! So here's to my journey that I hope to share with people and meet new people along the way! This is Jack he was my first lesson horse and sometimes I still ride him he helped me progress fast so I had moved on from him to another horse who you'll meet soon!
