The quest for the "perfect horse" is more about learning to be the "perfect rider", or the "perfect partner", than it is about the horse, because the horse itself is already perfect.

About Me

My photo
Equus
I have been involved in the horse industry for 20+ years, currently have too many equine partners of my own, and have been involved in or am presently involved in everything from working cattle to jumping and dressage. I am a small-p-pro trainer who takes on a small number of client horses each year. I am knowledge-hungry and love learning from each horse I have the privilege of working with.
