Re: [RC] Shagy-bred horses' National Ride, - SandyDSA
Is it me or is Dennis just working his undies out of a twist? I did
not think Angie was insulting at all. In fact, considering the subject latter,
thought she was forthright WITHOUT being nasty. Dennis, you posted this thread
as a guest and then didn't like what youthought you heard. I agree with Angie -
and Heidi and others - I had looked into Shagyas years ago (and frankly was
treated really rudely as if we Arabian owners were not up to snuff or
something), and as much as I liked the HORSES and very much WANTED one, chose
not to because I felt a real aloof attitude. IN any case, i did not sense
that in Angie or anyone else - and point SHOULD be well taken - to pin a horse
as a champion in a sport, it hardly speaks well for that horse to use the lowest
measure of accomplishment, especially knowing that they are capable of so much
more. LD has its place and is an accomplishment (just ask 75% of people who ever
get on theirs horses - they look at you like you are NUTS to ride all that
way!), but wow, not championship challenge level I don't think - with all due
respect.
