Hi, Recently I started to notice that the people that ride, or once rode are happier then people that never did. I feel they are tougher (emotionally i mean), better role models, and just are happier with what they have.Do you think so??...

she looks all around nice and her conformation is quite good (my uncle went to see her, as i'm too sick to go) she's got some pretty impressive bloodlines and as you can see is very well trained. I've been getting into Paints lately as the rest of my family does cutting and camp...

Okay, I haven't been able to ride my trainer's Hanoverian in a few months. But she's been cantering him once in a while. He know hasn't been ridden at all in about a month. He's about ten years old. A few years ago, he was jumping 3'6 in A shows. But now he...

So, I was tack shopping for my horse today. I had found this really pretty lavender halter that I absolutely fell in love with. But I was hesitant to buy it and in the end didn't. For one reason, the tack store I was in was crazy expensive (I usually go to a different place), and for two I...

I have a 7 year old Haflinger, and he's really good, you barely have to squeeze or anything, backs up with barely any pressure, and he turns nicely. The only problem is when cantering he will NOT slow down, half halts he ignores. He usually just goes back to a trot. But today I stopped to...

So, this past Wednesday evening I went to work with one of the young greenies I am schooling. Unfortunately, he spooked big time and I didn't have time to stop or turn him before he went from 100 to 0 in the corner of the arena. I fell, landed sideways on my knees, and had to go to the ER. ...

Well the girls broke down a fence yesterday and apparently proceeded to find a giant patch of burrs to play in. Montana (our clyde mare) has managed to become a giant burr. I am actually serious here - her tail, mane and forelock are now compacted masses of burrs (looks like she now has a docked...

Mustang Wranglers. Those people who round up the wild mustangs and use them for rodeo and other means. Personally I think the horses should just be left alone. Yes I know some people have them as riding horses but sometimes I think the wranglers are cruel. What do you think??...

His body is a very nice solid chestnut color (all but two white stockings on his fore left and right left leg) but we are having trouble deciding if he is a flaxen chestnut or not. You see his mane is very blonde but his tail is black. Would this combination be considered flaxen chestnut or...

Romeo has "good" and "bad" days while on the lead. He's always good for a walk, but trotting takes some effort, and I refuse to puuull him into a trot. He likes to stop whenever he wants, as well. I've decided to start using a crop to get him to listen, and...

I have been working hard to get the connection with my gelding. Impulsion from behind, driving aids, soft hands etc. However, I am having trouble with free walk, which tells me I need to back up in my training and fix this. My horse doesn't want to stay straight, kinda floats, looks around,...

I am NOT a fan of most modern dressage saddles, that have big knee blocks, overstuffed panels, and uber deep seats. I like passiers a LOT and the stubben tristan. But I want to look at some other brands, in case I don't find one of those 5 saddles to fit properly....
