Benjamin Keevil commented on Gail Haynes's group 'Five Star Ranch'
Five Star Ranch is a great place to ride with lots of clinics and Canadian horses. In April 2010, I attended a Josh Lyons clinic and followed up with a lunging clinic in June that I want to do again in the Fall. Groundwork is really helpful when…

Great songstory -- as Tom Smith said in the "Seabiscuit" movie --- "Every horse is good for something and you don't throw a life away just because he is banged up a bit".

Hi Benjamin, I don't add the event listings, my members do. The person who added that one is the only person who can change those dates. Stay warm! :)

Barnmice Admin, a couple of days ago I asked the person who added the Naked Horse event in Quebec City to correct the date error but have received no reply yet. Benjamin

A Bit About Me and my Horse(s)
How did I become interested in Canadian horses?

In 2006, I read a fascinating article in the newspaper about www.RandyBird.ca who rescued about 10 Mustang horses from Western USA and brought them to his equine training school in Harwood, Ontario, about an hour east of Toronto. I visited these wild Mustangs many times and seemed to make a connection with the herd leader.

To learn more about horses and people, since 2008 I have volunteered once a week at a therapeutic riding program, www.CARD.ca in Toronto. Also, I have attended horse shows in Uxbridge, London, Guelph, and Toronto, Ontario and Ocala, Florida.

In addition, I have read about 10 books about Canadian Horses and visited the Canadian horse, O'Mark and Newfoundland Pony, Juno, that were featured on the Canadian stamp.

In 2009, I started riding a 10-year old, well-trained, part-Canadian mare named Fraxi at www.CountryHillFarm.ca near Stouffville, Ontario. Then, Fraxi moved back to Nova Scotia and I rode Gabe, a 20-something Haflinger pony. While on vacation in Bradenton, Florida this summer I am riding a 12-year old Morgan mare, Savannah, that is very similar to a Canadian -- well trained, about 15 hands, calm, bay color with a black, flowing mane. Also, I went swimming with horses at www.BeachHorses.com near the Gulf of Mexico.

Life doesn't get much better than that!
