Adding to what has said about waiting to ride horses...I recently read that
the plates in a horse's spine are not fully developed (or closed) until
almost 6 year's of age, so getting on their backs at 2 yrs. doesn't seem like
a sound idea.

Great idea, and I was so pleased to see all your stallions points noted,
the positive and negatives.
Thanks for a delightful description.

A two year old, in my opinion, is not really mature enough to be balanced
or coordinated, might still be somewhat butt high. Since Fjords don't
really mature fully until they are 6 or 7, seems that it might be wise to
work them very lightly at

Can the answers to this be posted to the list. I bought Julia Will's

Have a draft book that must talk about measuring somewhere - but no clue

My horse had a lot of trouble learning to canter while being ridden. This year
she is 6 and more balanced. A friend of mine gave me a helpful hint on getting
the canter. In order to circle to the left, the outside leg is back, the inside

I think tripping at the trot and difficulty cantering go hand in hand with
some Fjords. I attribute it to conformation issues, and the type of mover you
have, although I am sure some would argue that point. I think you have to
have someone knowledgeable

Thank you Jean, you are correct, it is the mullen shaping that gives the
comfort for the tongue. I must have been flashing back to the trainer/high

from Jean Earnst who has converted to glory bits). These work well on him. I use

Hi all,
I'm looking for information on Collars (the all-purpose, leather
type for pulling). I would like to ask the folks with more knowlege on
this subject than I, about measuring for a collar, the best place to
purchase one, etc.

My daughter loves the Fjord. I was thinking of what to get her for
Christmas. Your "all occasion" note cards would be a perfect gift.
Could you please send me your samples and the purchase info.

I would try her in a Glory Butterfly bit - the mullen mouthpiece curves
slightly up away from the tongue.
