DORA JUMPS HER FIRST EVER GRID ~ Realities of jumping a five year old pony

[@christinedavies336]

I don't think it matters how many poles Dora got down she didn't refuse - not once! She is going to be a cracking pony for one lucky rider/family!

[@mais748]

The bit at the start when it says “wasabi” with Megan on the wasabi green bag 😂😂

[@raz1279]

Omg Dora is too sweet! It makes my heart melt seeing her jumping and all grown up! In my heart she is still a baby!

[@annieridesagain3867]

She is such a lovely little pony and doing so well .

[@conniesoutar8500]

She looks so much more grown up now, she has really filled out!

[@beckyjava5390]

awwww Dora is coming along so well, i love how she just canters over the jumps in the warm up😂 doesn’t bother to really lift up her legs

[@Chloesfarm]

Can we just talk about how ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL Dora is!! prettiest pony I’ve ever seen 😍

[@kateflanders7611]

TYSM for the video. ‘Looking sharp at home’ is a good reminder to do every once in a while to get you into the zone.

[@Serphyr]

Your the only youtube that I watch the full video if it’s 20+ minutes long, your just the best!

[@jillianlarmore7728]

So excited for this vlog! Dora is my favorite of your youngsters! Edit: aww go Dora!! Can’t wait to see her jumping at badmington in a few years time 😍😉

[@kaitlynarsenault3156]

WOW she has filled out so much and is looking incredible! ♥️ just goes to show that some ponies take longer than others to develop, and good on you Meg for giving her the time to blossom.

[@mercedescarbayo-abengozar9966]

She is SO CUTEEEEE. You are really lucky to have her ❤❤😊🐎🐎

Awww bless Dora. She is such an angel and is so honest. Well done Meg and Dora!!

[@rubypearce5163]

the overcooked spaghetti had me creasing 😂😂

[@horsemom6421]

I know you joke & have fun but seriously you are a talented trainer & have a good balance of asking more & not to much of the youngsters. What I'm trying to say is you have great horsemanship. 👍 I learn a lot from your videos.

[@bracynwise2982]

Dora is soooo cute I wish I had a horse like her she really was made for you

[@horsegirl7530]

Dora is doing great! Love ya Meg ❤️

[@grumley-eventing4813]

She is so cute and lovely

[@avacollins7595]

She looks EXACTLY like my 7 year old connie mare, rose. Rose wiggles her nose all the time and reminds me of Dora. We live in ireland where rosy was born. Who's Dora's mum and dad they could be related??!?

[@Hannah_reif]

That is cool that she lookes like your horse. Ross is such a pretty name

[@thelibster13]

I live in Ireland too

[@cheyennejumper08]

Yay, all the horses are beautiful

[@innerbeauty3892]

Great video. What a superstar pony 🤩 x

[@ghostnotfound4667]

I know all the pains of having a 5 year old 😂 my boy when we first got him when he is 5 now he is 7 😂

[@una6971]

Omgg im so excited to watch this video! I love to see Dora progress ❤️

[@donnajeffery8267]

I love the way at the beginning De gave Hannah the side eye after she asked her if she minded making so much noise as if to say yes I do mind I am destroying what is on my door and with time and work Dora will get the hang of this jumping stuff Dora says sorry mum for making a bit of a mess she says but jumping makes me so excited but she is so cute and can’t believe how dark she was so thank you and can’t wait for the next one

[@larix6444]

very smart girls, both of you 🤩

[@raythegoth]

Okay that was hands down the best unveiling of products I've ever seen haha "She's like riding a bit of over cooked spaghetti down there" xD This was a fab video and I think it's fantastic that you're sharing these moments because the not-so-good moments really need to be normalised. Riding isn't all sunshine and rainbows especially with youngsters and people need to learn to accept that and quit being so quick to judge. I love your approach with all of the youngsters you give them all the time they need and you aren't in any rush to see them reach their potential and that's what makes you such a fantastic horsewoman and a great role model to future riders.

[@daisy_equestrian427]

she is the cutest go dora doooo

[@emilyjackson653]

Love your vids! Dora is an amazing pony!!

[@equinemads]

Aww i love ur videos and ur channel, dora is soo cute

[@lexieandanimalsbpbwssl2331]

She is a cracking pony for her age she did not refuse

[@lastlegeventing8865]

I have the body suit, they are amazing! Much nicer to wear and so comfy.

[@donalobeirne6349]

Anyone else watching this when Dora's gone 😭😭😭😭

[@islaequestrian3038]

Hi Meg love ur channel also early🥰

[@april5666]

Dora is a brave pony -- no matter how many times she knocked the jumps, she kept going. Thru or over, maybe if I just raise my head -- lol. She got there eventually and by the end the way she was shaking her head, I think she had her mind a little blown. Like, wow, now I know what all the older girls are talking about -- I better start paying attention -- this is serious business. ;)

[@hollyequestrian2660]

Dora looks so much like my mum's horse !! she's so cute

[@mikesharp2410]

Great jumping

[@elliesmadhorselifex899]

Honestly think Dora could be so so good at jumping in a few years

[@louisekelly5701]

She did so well

[@km_equestrian9276]

omg been waiting for this to come out for so long after seeing it on your insta!!!

[@user-xv8hl3hz4m]

I love the youngster vlogs! any chance you can do some more videos on how you get a youngster like Dora to a full grown eventing diva like Jam? I want to know your tricks for balanced canter in youngsters etc! :))

[@punkfiend13877]

She is so freakin cute. With a bit more practice she will be amazing

[@clauilein1093]

I've had a couple leotards from dancing and figured they'd be great for riding cause no riding up, right? Yeah, they don't ride up your BACK... 😂Defo didn't work out for me 😂 Really love watching Dora, she's such an amazing pony! Also coming along really well, she'll be fantastic with a bit of practice. And such a lovely personality 😍

[@nicolasmith727]

cant believe how much shes grown

In a couple years time you can tell Dora is going to be a cracking good pony

[@audreypolarwater2969]

When is the new sponsor video coming out???

[@jesshorsesandponies]

I love that you didn't want to film the saddle while tacking up, but then spoke to the camera in the arena after with it on full display 😂

[@kaylachurcher904]

is there a reason for this comment with some substance?

[@helena5649]

Hell yes :D I love the videos

[@paigemorgan1019]

I love being first! Hope everyone has a good day x

[@bellaheal4717]

we need another Q&A videooo meg

[@syzygyfarm]

Those PolyJumps aren't just great for green/eco-friendly, they're also great for green/horses! Love that they give so easily. It's a bit nicer on the young horses while they're learning where their feet are. I'm excited for Dora to come along. She looks so much more mature now than she has before.

[@ihay472]

Aww she did so well on that last one! How tall is Dora now?

[@elliepriceeq2399]

So cute! Still convinced that saddle secret is that your now working the Voltaire😏😂

[@aislingsmith2751]

Thats what I'm guessing too

[@elliepriceeq2399]

@@aislingsmith2751 if you look back on Megs vlogs she’s wearing Voltaire socks and I’m the badminton qualifier she is clearly riding in a volatile saddle, all I’m saying 😂

[@louisekelly5701]

I see the saddle 😉

[@elliehensey7691]

That coat reminds me of going to a theme park

[@Aliquinex]

Do they make the bodysuit small enough for my 1 year old? I could look super flash at daycare 🙈

[@nickie4569]

I think using a martingale with Dora would be beneficial. Martingales are one of my favorite tools with young horses as it helps to stabilize their head and they also can't throw their head all over the place which helps with steering and balance. Also it will stop her from throwing her head up over the fence which will help prevent her from hollowing her back

[@sunsetstable7520]

Can you film an update on bear and Milly

[@thatshowjumper8983]

Ohh god I love you Dora

[@ameliafitzgibbons1170]

Is your saddle a fairfax saddle?!
