For the shirt, most people wear something like this, in white

They add a stock tie (pretied is easiest),...

Don't forget the gloves. I've seen a steward give someone at her first dressage show (Bronze) grief for not wearing gloves. She ended up borrowing some.

Otherwise, a hunter/jumper outfit (tan...

I saw Shiny Pemmy in action at the Thoroughbreds for All event and just loved her. She may be a bit too forward for you (or me!), but worth a look. Although she did settle down in the canter...

In a similar vein, not all trail-string horses, or trail horses in general, like--or will like--ring work.

I board at a big boarding/lesson/eventing/foxhunting barn and have seen a lot of horses go through here.

Many of the solid citizen types and best lesson horses have been thoroughbreds. They might...

My first horse was a 23 year old BTDT OTTB mare. She had done everything--hunters/jumpers/equitation/eventing/dressage--with a succession of kids. She pretty much packed me around my first couple of...

Fabulous!

It's renewal time and I was wondering if anyone in Quebec had coverage under anyone other than Univesta/HEP/Henry?
Their maximum available coverage for surgery/colic is $5,000, which seems very low...

Love my Echo. I've even used it to cut small areas of grass at my cottage when it was too long for the lawnmower to handle. I'm mechanically challenged and two stroke (or four stroke--can't remember...

If I am able to get to my feet but am in terrible pain and realize I need to go to the ER, don't ask me to get back on the horse and do further damage to myself or to untack the horse (this happened...

I love my two TBs (old OTTB mare and young didn't-make-it-to-the-track gelding). I'm an older timid rider and both have been stellar for me. The old mare has been my teacher--never overfacing me...

My 26 year old TB still loves to work and I really wonder how she would cope if she were fully retired. She gets pissed off on the days I take my gelding out and not her. I tailor her workouts to...

Shipping to Canada.

I think he should be put tied up in a cage with Komodo dragons, crocodiles or polar bears... so that the animals can exact their revenge.

Go watch the training rides. If you're worried about how he'll behave with you, my horse has done all sorts of stuff with my trainer (who pushes him much further than I do) that he hasn't done with...

I'm pretty lax with my 26 year old mare, because she has already memorized the Pony Club manual and is no doubt smarter than me anyway (she does things like refuse to walk through gates that aren't...

My TB has a big white Chubari/Tetrarch spot on his left butt check, which I don't think is all that unusual for a grey. He also has horizontal brindling on his legs like the photo on the website for...

The 26 year old mare spooks at existential things like rocks, the monster hiding behind the mounting block, her own poop in her own stall, snow blowing through the cracks of the indoor and rain...

My mare pretends to be a bitch at times (has to keep up her end for all the TB mares out there) but in reality she has a heart of gold. She is 26 and it will be a sad day when I lose her....

Nurse Jackie.

If you are driving the ice road, winter would be the best time to do it... :D:D:D Summer, not so good....

I love practically all food but have a particular weakness for white foods: mashed potatoes, white chocolate, whipped cream, coconut, you catch my drift...

BA in Languages and Literature (French and English). MA in Translation. About ten years ago, went back and did a bunch of upper-level undergraduate courses in biology and environmental science as a...

When I was about four or five, I absolutely adored the Three Stooges. I couldn't get enough of it. However, I was only allowed to watch Larry, Moe and Curly if, in turn, I watched what was then...

I lost my heart dog, a shepherd-malamute mix, about a year ago, at the age of 10, with no warning. Roxy was devoted to me, yet independent and very much her own "person." She was physically fearless,...
