Choosing a riding instructor for your child can be easy, thanks to reliable accrediting organizations.
Many kids' horse lives start at home, with basic handling and riding lessons from parents, grandparents, or another relative. But getting your young rider under the instruction of a reliable, trustworthy professional can really help his or her horsemanship start to soar, not to mention ease any tension that might be caused by you coaching your own kids. It can also help your child realize new goals, find new interests with horses, and push him or her to take things to the next level. Thanks to industry-wide organizations, finding the right fit might be easier than you expect.
Here are a handful of resources to use when looking for the perfect instructor for your budding rider. Also, don't forget to tap your own local horse network to make a final decision based on experience with trusted friends.

Ranch Sorting Drills For a Dull Horse
Some horses are born eager to hunt a cow, while others—no matter how broke—would rather conserve energy and hang back. A horse that's dull to your leg or slow to react can make working a cow frustrating and unproductive. The goal isn't just to get through the run—it's to teach your horse to drive up into a cow with purpose and maintain forward momentum without constant kicking or nagging from you.

Rehabbing a Foundered Horse
Founder can feel like a four-letter word for horse owners, and it's one of the toughest conditions to try to rehab a horse from. Laminitis, the medical name for founder, occurs when blood flow to the laminae is disrupted, weakening the bond inside the hoof. If left untreated, there can be rotation or sinking of the coffin bone. This is typically when it's referred to as founder, and when riders begin to worry that their horse is either permanently unrideable or will be in too much pain to continue living.

Against the Odds
RIGHT BEFORE THIS ISSUE WENT TO PRESS, I had the opportunity to go to the Snaffle Bit Futurity finals and watch some of the top 3-year-old cow horses in the world compete for the prestigious title of Snaffle Bit champion. As I watched John Swales complete his fence work run, I couldn't help but tear up. John wasn't just on any horse—he was riding Bowie Nights, a horse trained by his sister, Veronica Swales. Veronica was involved in a serious accident at the National Stock Horse Show back in August and is currently unable to compete, but she knew that if anyone could step in and show her horses to their full potential, it was her brother.
