A beautiful and true sentiment. Have been fascinated with your training of Jac, but
do not understand horse training as well as I do doggie obedience class 🙂 Why in
the world ruin (?) a gentle training for days, months, whatever, only to be seein
using those absolutely ugly, nasty, huge star burst SPURS? Sorry, don’t seem to
understand. I rode English as a teenager till I got to college and don’t recall ever
putting any on, even in a “schooling show,” Would appreciate a simple answer.
Thank you.
The simple answer is that if you ask Roxy, the horse, if she was ruined by me using spurs the answer is she was not. I have a two page article that I wrote somewhere but that wouldn’t be a simple answer.
I went ahead and posted the full article on spurs if you would also like to read that.
I love this quote….:)
So very true:)
Inspirational words and it rang true in those times. I remember the Roosevelt years very well. I can only hope they are true now, but with the greed and dishonesty that prevails in many areas of this world today, it’s a struggle. God bless everyone who tries.
I love your blog and horses. Thank you for the fine training films about Jac .
