Re: [RC] I GOT MY FIRST HORSE!!! - rides2far@xxxxxxxx




I have been dreaming about this day since I was a little girl!!!

She is an 18 month old stock paint horse - no paint markings.  

My only question is..how much experience do you have? Any reason you 
chose a young horse? Personally, I'd have tried to buy the mama. >g<

My rule is that the rider's number of years experience added to the 
horse's age ought to be at least 10. I kinda like a first horse to be 
at least 12-15. If you've got experience riding other people's horses 
but not owning your own that counts though.  Don't want to be a stick 
in the mud but I get really frustrated when I see people's first 
experience ruined because somebody sold them a horse that wasn't 
suited to their level of experience.j..it's so fun to learn to ride 
when you're not scared of what is getting ready to happen next.
