barefoot horses

andreacall — Mon, 11 Jul 2005 03:59:20 GMT

I've been reading a lot about the strasser method and leaving horses barefoot. I'm very interested in it, and would like to hear from anyone who has taken a horse from shod to barefoot. I tried removing just my gelding's back shoes, and he was so lame for two weeks he could barely walk. He has white feet and lives on a hill with some stones. Its SoCal, so there's no grass. I couldn't stand to see him hobbling around, so i broke down and put the shoes back on.
I might try it again, any thoughts?

Bridleless training

sara — Fri, 17 Aug 2007 23:36:18 GMT

Hallo

Since I started training this way I have a great new relationship with my horse. She learned to trust me and she has shown me a very friendly side of her, which I haven't seen before. Here is where I learned it, does anyone else here work with bridleless training?

Bridleless Training
By Palm Lynn

Bridleless Training is for the rider as well as for any breed of horse in any discipline. The important benefit of the rider's use of seat and leg aids is stressed, taking the emphasis off the hand aids which allows the rider to communicate more clearly with the horse. You become a more confident rider and improve rider balance problems caused by improper use of your hands. You'll learn to read your horse and understand where he carries his natural balance. This DVD provides excellent training techniques for older horses, for horses that have problems accepting a bit, and is excellent for horses that show signs of resistance as it provides a technique to get them to slow down and accept what they are doing. Using horses in different stages of training, Lynn demonstrates steps that must be followed and carefully evaluated before you advance. Ground training, numerous types of maneuvers, and many stages of training were involved in this unique bridleless training method. The final segment demonstrates the advanced horse, using Rugged Lark to show you the results of training through Love, Acceptance, Respect, and Kindness. This DVD can help you mark a new beginning in the relationship you have with your horse. However, always remember the many safety tips Lynn uses as an important part of all you do whether you are riding and or training.

NJ Barn Proposal-Holistic Training

Julia — Tue, 17 Oct 2006 16:21:35 GMT

I wanted to share some good news and ask for any advice. I have recently been asked to help develop a beautiful barn in nj. I propossed a facility based on dressage and 3-day eventing but with a focus on holistic training methods, nutritian, message therapy, reiki, and other methods that have so helped me in my personal life. I want to really promote a total approach to the art and spirituality of riding. If anyone knows any information on trainers, methods, or health related info i would be so thankful.

Fun, free online horse sim game!

andreacall — Sun, 19 Nov 2006 22:22:12 GMT

If you like online horse games, check out this one!
http://www.hajinc.com/clickit.php?affid=1109
The really unique thing about it is that it uses real color genetics to decide the color of horses you breed. Its better than lots of other games I've tried, with a very cool owner and an active membership.

Instructor recommendations?

Elizabeth — Mon, 17 May 2004 19:32:15 GMT

Hi, all--I live in the East Bay, and am hoping to get back into dressage after five years away(five years too many). I am not familiar with Bay Area dressage teachers--any recommendations? At this point, I just hope to find somewhere to begin the process of getting my seat back--owning a horse or competing is way down on my list of priorities. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Elizabeth

Hello

00smittenkitten — Wed, 08 Feb 2006 23:31:59 GMT

Hello, my name is Liesl and I'm getting back into riding having just completed my teaching credential.

Chances are good that I will be asking a couple of goofy questions over the next few months, but hopefully you will forgive me.

Speaking of goofy questions, does anyone have any recommendations for stables in Orange County or Mendocino?
I currently reside in OC, but am hoping to relocate to Mendo by the fall.

Thanks bunches,

L***

Kinkade saddles?

andreacall — Sun, 29 Jan 2006 19:57:58 GMT

I'm thinking of getting one for my fiance to use. He doesn't ride that often, but my saddles are too small for him (they pinch his man parts). I think I can get one for $200-$300. Has anyone used one? How are they? What is the quality like? I've seen them in the store, and they actually look pretty good for such an inexpensive saddle...

TRUCKS!

Gabriella — Mon, 31 Oct 2005 15:07:17 GMT

Hi - new member here!

I'm on the hunt for a truck appropriate for hauling horses. My horse is 1100lbs, and I'll likely just be hauling him. I'm thinking of a steel tag-along (vs gosseneck) trailer vs aluminum, but am open to suggestion (Brederrup is not an option).

Thanks in advance for the input!

Olympics?

latteberry — Fri, 20 Aug 2004 14:39:44 GMT

Anyone following the Olympic controversy over Eventing? I've been reading the online reporting, but didn't see the actual event itself. Just curious what other people think--should Germany or Great Britain get the individual gold?
