Location: MI | I don't know what was said, I'll be honest, I stay away from hot and snarky threads cause I'm pretty much a "no drama momma". But, I hate that someone would attack you Andy when you offer awesome threads for people to learn from. And I am SO thankful for that, because being pregnant and not able to ride you give me something to look forward to, learn from, and live vicariously through until I can ride again. So poo to whoever said bad things, and thanks Andy, for the lessons that you have offered to those who will listen on this board. It is much appreciated! |

Wrap don't lower yourself or your horse down to the level of that thread was....you and your horse are far better than that! |

Location: Oklahoma | I know how frustrating that scenario can be. I have a mare at my house that I rode a couple times when the previous owners first got her as a 5yo (She is now 22) and she was awesome, just loved running. I watched this mare suffer through so many dumb training tecniques. I was able to buy her as a 15 yo and took her to college with me. It took me a year to get her right mentally and physically, but she would run an awesome pattern for me especially after I switched her to the left.
Eventually I traded her for a mare more screwed up than she was (eventually fixed that one too). I got her back after she wnet through a trader, and to a really good home. I tried to fix her a 2nd time but by now she just hated everythign to do with barrels. She would run for me most of the time, but if anyone else pointed her at the barrels she would give the finger and run off. I could run her in a halter, but she would run through a longshank bit and metal tie-down with anyone else.
She is now being a crany old hooker at my house. I don't technically "own her" now, but she will never leave my care again. I will try to get her in shape enough for my little one to run poles on, but if she won't work then she will go back to being a fatty. |
