About Me:
My name is Sarah. I will be 15 in August. I have been riding horses all my life, but started training about 4 years ago. I havent been to many shows, but this year, will be my first big year of showing! Hopefully, it will last. My horse is about 20 years old. He will probably take me into fall showing, but after that he will probably retire. I will never sell him though. People tell me that i have no life becuase i am always riding...i just tell them that that IS my life. Just because i ride English and compete, doesnt mean i cant like Country music. I love Country music....People always tell me that since i ride English, i cant listen to Country...i just laugh in their faces....=P

Duke...the only 'man' in my life...sadly i can't show him that much anymore...he is getting older...but i will NEVER sell him. He has taught me more than anyone else ever could. We have our good days and our bad days...but we always get through them together...never alone. Without him i dont know where id be...but frankly...i dont want to know. My boy will always be my boy...no matter who else comes into my life. We may argue with each other, but its always out of love...ha.

SOOO FRUSTERATING!

So, i added pictures of the horse im supposed to be buying. We can't afford him all so, the property owner of the place he is at is going to finance him for me. So Red's [the horse] owner was really adamate that she wanted ME to buy him but now she is backing out and saying she isnt going to sell him unless we move him off the property. We dont have any other barn to go to! Im so upset about the whole thing. I am really in love with Red. We do really well together. My mom is going to try and tal… Continue

Exciting!

So today i had a lesson with my trainer, and Duke did well. But we have decieded to stop jumping him because he cant do it right, and hes just going to hurt himself....so i havent jumped in the LONGEST time...which is killing me. So after my lesson i had nothing else to do, so my trainer invited me to ride her Palimino mare. Ive ridden he before, and she is headstrong. But we did well. So then since we were doing so well, she set up a 2'6 jump and told me to go for it. We did and it was amazing.… Continue

First Show on Duke!

So we went to our first show together today, and we went home with 3 firsts, 4 seconds, Reserve High Point, and High Point for the whole show!
Im VERY proud of Duke (considering he was a total FREAK the night before.)

Grrr...

So, my mom has been really sick lately, and she first forgot to tell me that i had an extra lesson on Sunday, so we missed that (which is ok, because my trainer worked Duke for me anyways). So then she makes my lesson today, at 11:30....my mom AGAIN didnt tell me and we missed the 11:30 time, so she called my trainer and she moved it back to 12:30...so we went, and my trainer was all ready there, and so was the shoer....Duke was getting new shoes....which again, my mom forgot about....so we had… Continue

I know exactly what you mean. I had a horse that I couldn't ride anymore because he had navicular and I had to divide my time between him and my show horse. Because of money and time issues (I was in soccer and many school activities), we had to give him up, but he's with nice owners that have a children's church group that come out to brush and play with him. It's hard to forget about horses, but be sure to plan your time with him. It'll make it so much easier for you when you set aside time just for Duke. :)

Wow 4 years!? I've only had mine for 2. :D Too bad he's getting old, but I'm glad you're keeping him. You could still do light rides and go on trails with him after he's retired right?
