Horse and Rider
|Summer 2024
Taking the time to know your horse outside of the arena pays off on the trail or in the show pen.
The horse industry is weighted more heavily toward owners who house their own horses, and care for them on daily basis. Yet, there's a large percentage of riders who either pay to board a horse because they don't own the proper facility to keep their horse at home, or they have their horse in training.
As owners, we should understand our horses and do our best to know what makes them want to work. And if you don't have the ability to take your horse home and oversee his care, it's even more important to spend time with your horse before or after a lesson so you can better understand what he's like in his environment.
