Well it looks like I’m in a contest with my horses to see who will live the longest and judging by how hard I work everyday to meet their needs it very well could not be me !
In all fairness to me I think they need to contribute a little more if they want their equiox and insulin wise , so I’ve decided to take a couple more students that would like to improve on their skills and knowledge in anything from ground work to equitation and flatwork /basic dressage . I’ve included some more recent pictures of my students and horses - we go back 45 yrs so there’s a lot .
Will consider part leasing to a good match .
Message me if you’re interested 👍
