“My 3k horses stand in with my 40k horses.
I’ve had a $500 horse earn 100k.
I’ve watched a 35k horse become a 5k horse with 1 X-ray.
I owned a mare who earned 107k, who was bought for $700.
Horses don’t know what you paid, they don’t know what they’ve won.
But they do know how you treat them.
There’s not a single horse on my place that’s treated any differently then the others.
You can’t put a price tag on a soul.
Today as I walked my pastures.
I pet the noses of horses who’s owners failed them. I pet the noses of horses who could have been winners had they been given the chance.
I also get to pet the winners.
Today I kissed the noses of colts who one day can become winners, if their owners bring them to their full potential.
Horses know no dollar value.
They do know if you love and believe in them.”
Love and treasure them and they will try their hearts out for you!!!!
