Equi-shine Horsemanship: Holiday treats for your horse

Quote of the day.

Pounding hooves, tossing mane,Take me swiftly on my life's journey.Loyal friend, carry me to a place of safety.Lift me over the obstacles of my path

It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference.

Paul "Bear" Bryant

"There is something about jumping a horse over a fence,somethingthat makes you feel good. perhaps it is the risk,or the gamble. In any event it is a thing I need."

W. Faulkner

"Never let fear and commonsense hold you back!"

Loren

"Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole and, once it has done so, he will have to accept that his life will be radically changed."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

"A horse is 'disobedient' in exact proportion to how difficult he finds the task. The trainer's problem is not how to punish the 'disobedience' but to discover *why* the horse finds the task difficult!" --William Hillebrand

"Riding is a dance between horse and rider, the less the rider does the more beatiful the dance"

JackRabbit

Storms make oaks take deepr root...
So remeber when your horse gives you a hard day it just makes the good days even better, without a negative a postive would not exsist.

"Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

"Brutality begins where knowledge ends. Ignorance and compulsion appear simultaneously."

" No heaven will not ever be heaven ; Unless my horses are there to welcome me.''
