    Hi Catherine,
    Right now I don't have a horse either (I've owned several), there is nothing foolish about it. Right now I pay to ride other people's horses, it helps their owners pay for the ever escalating feed prices.
    At one time decades ago I had seven horses, and I think it would cost the same to feed ONE horse now as it took to feed 7 back then, which is why I don't own one now.
    I like Canadians too just from the pictures, I've never gotten to meet one. My favorite breed is the Arabian. I am lucky, I am getting to ride an Arabian mare now, the bay mare whose photo is my avatar.

    Catherine, I've written over 100 blogs on this site, most of them about me riding with MS including several about how I've adapted to riding in spite of my MS.
    Personally I think that riding is the best physical therapy for MS, I know that riding horses has kept me walking on my own two feet. Before I got back to riding I had worn out one electric wheel-chair taking care of my horses, I could walk but it was hard. Now I walk all the time (with 2 canes). If I don't ride I start losing track of my legs, and then I ride and even though I get TIRED I walk better after I've ridden half an hour.
    Yeah for horses!
