Not here, It is like a circus, no one wanted to change the rein, My instructor told me when to change, every one just stayed on the left rein. It made me more nervous do that then jumping. but I am not going to give up shows, My belgian/TB needs to…
This was my 2nd show one thing that really bothered me was when every one was schooling it was Chaos, people jumping all over the place, Trainers yelling at students, I think it really should be more organized. They should do walk, trot, canter, the…
Thanks for all the response, My trainer had taken me aside tonight, she told me I did make some mistakes and it was a large class. How ever the very first show I did very well and some people work very hard for years just to get what I had gotten th…
Thanks for that tip, now I know what songs to pick when I sing to him, depending on how he is felling that day. Life is good with a horse.
I will not give up on the shows, want to hear something funny even in the ring I sing to my horse. someone asked me why I do that I told them He likes it.
Thanks Ellin, my trainer said the same thing, Every show is like a new day always different. I did find some people at shows are really nice and try to be helpful, but there are others that are nasty. I guess I just have to have thick skin with thos…

Thanks I did stretch last night thing went alot better. I ride a belgian draft/TB cross 17 hands I am 5' 8" weigh 160 Just thought I would throw this in because you are talking about weight and size of horse.
He really is a good horse comes to the fence when I call him follows nicely, takes the bit great, but maybe you are right Spring is in the Air.
Thanks for the suggestion Linda
Thanks my big guy has really been giving me a tough time It is taking a toll on my leg and hands,
Hey guys not to change the subject but I keep getting calf cramps in my right leg when riding , do I need too stretch more, also My 6 year old Belgian/TB takes off on my while I am just walking, and when working in the ring he will not go by the gat…
Erin, You sound like my barn owner, Your job and hers is truly a labor of love.
back to boarding, I live in NE PA I board my horse for 400.00 a month that includes hay, feed, turnout , blanketing if needed, and stall cleaning. My lessons are 30.00 an hour. I guess this is a good deal.
Brenda,
My daughter is a chiropractor she said sometimes they have to go deep to get the knots out out the mussel . This is called trigger point. I have had neck problems and had to have this done.

- Sherry, I'm happy for you that you have a horse again in your life. It's so good for you that your husband is supporting the decision. When I was 16 I saved enough money from my little jobs to buy a horse & my friends dad let me keep him at their farm as long as I bought the food. I paid them a small amount to let them know I appreciated it. This little QH mare had more fun with me. Very testy & I had no one to help & no clue. I had her for two years & started a family, rode her for 8 mo. of pregnancy and decided to let her go the following spring. The only control I ever had was what she felt like giving me. The gal that bought her was experienced & 'they' had a great time together. I know now, she needed a leader. I needed a lesson horse....something I'd never even heard of. For the next 33 years my husband thought I should get a horse. He put a nice saddle on lay-away for me & said, "Find a horse" & I said "no, we can't afford it". A few years later some friends sold a pretty colt & he wanted me to buy it & checked into him & again I said, "No, we can't afford it & I have no idea how to manage a young horse." He gave up on the idea for a while as the kids got into the difficult teen years. Then just before he retired, he gave me some cash & told me to go find a horse. The money went in the bank & I said, "We can't afford it & I'm getting too old". Then our son got a girlfriend with a horse and then she bought a 2nd & invited me to come meet them. The next day I went to see them again and I called the newest one & he came running across this big field. Next day, the same thing. We started riding. I was hooked. The sweatshirt at the end of my bed that I grabbed to put on the next day smelled very horsey and it was like a bottle of million dollar perfume to me. After a few weeks riding her horse, I took a good spill. Decided to take lessons on a lesson horse. Within 2 months I was looking for my own horse to take lessons with. I ended up with my "Cash". Fun!

- Sherry, Thanks for your comment. I do just adore Cash. I went so many years with no horse and then to be one of the lucky ones to get a great horse. I love our time together. For now I am retired so I am able to spend lots of time with him and generally the time just flies by. My husband has been great in encouraging me to get a horse and not getting annoyed with the time I spend at the barn. He just keeps telling me that I'm making up for all the lost time not having a horse.
What kind of showing are you planning on doing? I hope you will be able to post some pics soon. Let me know when we can catch a view.
