I raised my first horse from a weanling and she was with me for 25 years, an Appy. Have had several other horses over the years, we have a flock of sheep, some dairy goats. I currently have a thoroughbred mare that I rescued. I'm looking forward to my mare foaling in June, training the baby and probably taking some riding lessons to get back in the saddle again, it's been awhile. If a person will take the time to cultivate a correct education, everything else will come easier for the horse and rider both.
