You m ay want to update with area/location he is from. I know there are a TON of Midatlantic people on this board! =))) Good luck!

EMILY!!! SO AWESOME!!! I had no idea you were on the cover this month as I gave up my subscription a bit ago. What an amazing thread and you definitely have earned your spot on that page =))) Huzzah...

Exactly.



Who is accusing? Long Spot stated clearly in her post that the children slipped up a number of times and then she approached the parent about it, at which point it was made clear that...

One of mine began developing bog spavin, but with rest and good turnout it cleared up. Never was lame from it :) So, it's not a deal killer necessarily, but give it a look and xray of course.

I always liked Clay and Shelly. I can't speak to the rumours or to their lives outside of my personal dealings with them.

I have to say though, Horse Guy, this sounds an awful lot like fishing for...

I've had great luck with Buckpasser lines, and AP Indy as well. Oh, and Dixieland Band throws a nice one as well :yes: There are so many great lines out there!

Sometimes it helps to have another person look at your student and tell you what THEY see. I am always appreciative when someone points something out for this very reason. Now occasionally, I am...

If you're in Beaverton and hoping for a super short commute, you need to check out Tile Valley. You should also look into Oxer Ridge, which is up on the same hill as Ringside and only 20 minutes...

Did you check FarmVet or Valley Horse?

If it's an adult ammie just looking to ride, have fun, and do the occasional show, then Libbi is a great choice :yes: She does share a barn with Debbie, a brand new facility just off on 213, a bit...

She truly is an amazing filly, and horses that run like that always bring tears to my eyes - in the good way! :sadsmile: I too hope that they let her have a good career, and let's see where she can...

Somehow I just can't find it in my heart to believe you. If you had learned your lesson, ever, you wouldn't continue to behave in the same manner.

I do like your mare, she's very cute and seems...

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I totally want it!!!

I'm pretty sure Seabreeze could get you through the USET's and the Jr/AO's quite swimmingly. ;)

I would like to second Seabreeze :)

www.seabreezefarminc.com is their website.

The best way to start learning to feel it is to sit the trot and concentrate on which hind leg is pushing you forward at each step. When you feel that outside seatbone pushed forward, that's how you...

The Grey Pony is up in Brookeville, not far from Annapolis. They have a great consignment area with lots of kid stuff, as well as brand new items. Also, there is Bits and Bridles in Ellicott City.

He may be a Stomper, but his jump is a 10! :yes: :D

I did enjoy people nit-picking on Crown Point, the 3 year old, being inconsistent and not stretching out at the canter :rolleyes: If you takea...

My general PPE includes the basic physical exam and flexions. I also always pull blood and have them hold onto it in case I want to run a drug screen in the weeks following. I have been bit in the...

How do you mean, 2boys?

As a hunter rider and trainer I work with my horses so that they respond to the subtle aids needed to demonstrate excellence in the show ring. If I lift my shoulders and...

I disagree. If your horse is trained to a proper half-halt, which includes seat and leg, you can half halt on the buckle. Your horse should respond to the slowing of your body. A proper half-halt...

Well said CoolMeadows, and everyone else. What I see happening in this thread is simply people expressing their concern for the rider and the horse.

This horse seems to only jump well from the...

I concur :winkgrin:

I just can't bother wading through all your drivel is what it really boils down to.

Sure there are some trainers out there who try to control things, but ultimately there is no trainer who really CAN control their clients. HOWEVER: when a trainer and a prospective client sit down...
