Riley replied to Maureen Wallace's discussion 'Need help to find a pony!'
My son's first pony was a "freebie" from friends within in the horse community. He was 4, she was in the 30+ range, about 13 h, POA, vanilla with caramel spots and really BIG hair. Her little girl had outgrown her and she needed to go…

Riley commented on Debbie Burrows's group 'The Over 40 Rider'
I'm actually an over-50 rider who never really stopped riding. I've modified what I do with horses - I no longer event or jump as I too have discovered that one no longer bounces but breaks!
I now ride dressage and have invested in a…

Riley replied to Rachel's discussion 'Tuff Love Coaching in Tears When is too far to far?'
1. I don't think any of the Army Boot Camp type instructors will respond. By their very definition their approach is domination and control, not learning and adapting. But hey - I hope I'm wrong! Anybody out there????
