This is Horse Rescue at its finest!

Lindsey has a history of saving horses from auction sales that may have gone to slaughter. She retrains them and gives them a second chance at life.

Any horse can be a caring and willing partner if only the handler takes the time to connect with the horse and show them that humans can be great partners! As Gary Convery believed - there are no

Well Pixie is solidly broke to ride and just needing some final polishing that can be accomplished quickly in the spring. Heather, the pony rider, informed us a couple of weeks ago that she was going back to school (always a good choice!), so we would soon be without a small, lightweight rider for starting ponies.

I appoligize for not posting for awhile, been crazy busy. First of all, yes I got the job. I get all my chores done from 8 - 11 am. That means I get up at 7am and so I'm constantly tired, but I do get Friday to Sunday off which is good, I don't think I could handle 7 days a week. Im really fortunate though, to have an amazing coach, she has been great to work and ride with. I have been leasing a couple different horses in the past 2 months, its really interesting to ride different horses once… Continue

Yes all is well. We are going to be at the house on time. No delays (as my other post mentioned). We will be moving in this coming Friday. Hopefuly Saturday I can go and check out the local barn that I will be working at. I really want to try one of the horses she has for sale there as soon as possible. I'm planning on doing a lease to buy, since I really want to get to know the horse before we buy it. We really want to make this time a good buy. Last time we bought horses, we kinda jumped into… Continue

So were getting ready for our moving sale this Friday and Saturday, you probebly already no if you saw my discussion for my tack for sale. We leave on the 17th and we sould get there on the 22nd or so, depends how long we take to drive there. Then I start up riding lessons and then in December I will look to buy a horse (I have owned 5 horses before so this is not my first horse). I'm really hoping for a Warmblood this time, but I found this really neat Appendix mare that I might be interested… Continue
