Erwyn.. Erwyn was adopted and they sent to trainer who did not do right by her AND had ill fitted tack. She came back with a sore back which has been rehabbed with chiropractic and time off. She needs someone patient and willing to continue riding making it a good experience.She is doing well on trails and likes a buddy to ride with.
