Does anything teach self control as well as riding? First, self control in body. Your hands, your legs, your feet your body, your balance your feel your vision, every one communicates with your horse.
And second, in mind. What must you control, anxiety, self doubt, anger, frustration need to be replaced with calm, courage, confidence and celebration .
Thank you to the horses who have helped me learn these things and continue to do so.

I have this tall, dark and handsome 4 year old Dutch x in for sale and training. I have just started him but I think he will like hunter pace, fox hunting, and basically dressage. He is by Captain ( Dondersteen) out of Liberty Bell ( Wilfred) and is about 17.2 hh so he will carry a tall or heavy rider.

I couldn't help but wonder if I was the only one who observed that the impressive Olympic dressage horse. Freestyle, with a score above 80% had its mouth open and appeared fussy in the connection during the entire performance. Surprisingly, less flashy but precise horses received 10% lower scores, and the blame falls on the riders for pushing too hard to produce these winners. If judging valued evident trust and partnership in our scoring, promoting correct riding rather than tension-filled extravagance, would the focus of those upper level riders change?

This is an actual question not an opinion stated in question form. What think you?

I have a few horse loving friends who despise possums because they are an intermediate host for Equine Protozoal Meningitis. I found out that they are only the secondary intermediate host and that they carry it from oppotunistically scavenging on carcasses from the other carriers. So as an added precaution against EPM, disposing of road kill near your farm is possibly even more effective than trying to control opposums. The guilty carriers are cats, skunks. And raccoons.
