As said- there is a barn near me, just closed to public. Which is common practice and the same rings true at the barn I am at, so I cannot hold that against them. I can read all the internet garb I want- but I do not solely go off of media on things. Real life experiences is what I go off of mostly :)
Blue, same here lol. I like Weat Saratoga and his story but they all are great. Theres a lot of nice boys out there today and I just hope none get injured and no accidents happen like I always do.
I bet! I've seen video of them and their backs barely move. :D If I ever get a horse, I think I'd like to get a natural gaited. Just be my poor joints. Some have aged faster then they should have. lol
We have purebred / half bred arabians that do Saddleseat here. They love it. All they get is padded shoes and training for it- training that is not harsh. I am trying to find a pic of the purebred Arab doing her thing.
