Horses need horsemen. It's that simple. I get asked the same questions over and over again and nobody gets it. What level rider is this horse suitable for? I'll tell you, the best one she can get, the best horseman that's willing to buy her. The horse will only ever be as good as the rider. It doesn't matter if it's trained to jump hoops of fire, you're gonna bring it down to your level in no time. Your kid doesn't need a $15,000 horse if they haven't already had $15,000 worth of lessons. You can't buy a violin that will gift you the skill of playing. It's the same for horses. There is no magic horse, only a love for the animal, and a commitment to learning.
Most of you are so unfair and demanding of the horse you miss the forest for the trees. "I want a horse that rides out alone!!" well guess what, you better be ready to spend a year developing that relationship, that bond, that trust, she's not a bike, you can't buy trust.
"I want a horse that can sit and be the same after time off" well friend, this is a commitment to a relationship, not a classic car you take out of the garage twice a year. You can't buy what your looking for.
"I want a horse my kids can ride" you better be ready to teach your kids how to be horseman, because if the horse has to do it, you'll likely see the inside of an ambulance, or a morgue.
You can't buy trust, you cannot buy what comes with building a relationship with an animal over years of dedication.

Horses are a commitment. Training and lessons are essential to keeping a horse and rider at the best of their ability and to help mold that relationship. Too good of a read not to share.

Care and Connect started 9 years ago with our beautiful Golden Retrievers ...
We are proud to have helped many families have one of our pups join them.
Some have gone to the relative organisations and changed lives ...
Some of our dogs have joined families, with children who just needed that extra care of what a Golden Retriever naturally offers ..care ,patience and a hidden understanding that offers no judgement!
These children don't tick all the boxes for the recognised organisations but families who have adopted one of mine have found they bring something to the whole family..
Please do view my page ..
...CARE AND CONNECT ...
This will give you insight into what i do and my reviews ....
I do have a very high criteria for potential families who feel they can have one join the family. They must be prepared for a polite interrogation !!
Follow up support is offered for as long as needed ...
I love to see updates of the ponies ..
