‘Oh Crap’ Monday

Monday is the crappiest day of the week, so it only makes sense that we make things official. Here’s our latest batch of reader-submitted “Oh Crap” photos and videos.

Merrilyn Ratliff: “This guy was a pasture puff western trail horse for years and is now the new lesson horse at an eventing barn. Charmingly, he loves to jump even though he doesn’t always know how exactly to do it (and I didn’t help much in setting up for this particular jump). We nearly went down in a tangle of luxuriant mane, but he recovered and I learned my lesson!” (Click a photo to open the gallery.)

Sometimes things don’t always go as planned. Our 1st big refusal since starting over fences. She jumped it 3x before this but must have decided she was done. I’m fine, she’s fine, my helmet did its job, I got back on & we jumped it 2 more times just so she knows refusals won’t get her out of work. I’m gonna be sore but that comes with the territory. #ouch #showjumping #quarterhorse #AQHA #slaughterrescue #naughtyhorse #horse #horses #horsesofinstagram #eventing #fearthelittleredhorse #intraining #englishriding #equestrian #equestrianlife #equestrianproblems #OhCrapHN
