A group of young fillies greets visitors to Roberts Quarter Horses. Mary and Larry Roberts know how to create magic. One visit to Roberts Quarter Horses in Ocala, Fla., is proof. Pass through the gates and the appreciation this family holds for their horses becomes a tangible presence.
Green horses can be inconsistent, unfocused and incredibly clever at learning evasive tactics.
A few months ago a girlfriend called and said she was getting back into riding, and was looking for a horse. She asked for my assistance. But everything I sent her way was not to her liking. They were either too plain, too old, or not challenging enough. Whether you are at home or away at a competition, following sensible hygiene will speed healing and minimize scarring.
