RE: [RC] Pregnant Mare - RaeAngie - it really depends on the mare. Scarlet, I will ride up til she foals, although she usually tells me at 10 months that I had better not put that saddle on her anymore. She's happy with me bareback and will charge out the gate for the trails. I love finding a play-day show with a ride-a-buck class when's she's large. I'm telling you, no matter what gait we go or how I bounce, that dollar goes nowhere! On the flip side, my other mare, Rhea, we quit riding her as soon as she's bred. She doesn't have the joy of being ridden that Scarlet has and so to keep her happy and stress free, we back off. Rae Tall C Arabians - Central Region Life isn't like a box of chocolates...it's more like a jar of jalapenos.What you do today, might burn your bum tomorrow.

She is due to foal the end of June. She likes to get out and go down the road still but is really getting huge!!! She seems like she's enjoying it, I'm not riding her hard, 5-10 miles mostly walking with some trotting. Am I ok to continue this??
