Well, I did it both ways..Never had horses until I got my first fjord in
1986. I bought a mare in foal, Stella, a white dun who was 9 years old at
that time. She was ridable (when I got a saddle that didn't hurt her) but
obviously I needed

I believe those old-time horsebreakers used to use a big pole in the center
of the round pen as a snubbing post. I love my round pen but I sure
wouldn't want a post in the middle of it! Seems like it would just be a
hazard to me and to the

If you have a weanling or a well trained horse the trick is taking time and
work with your horse.
I find now that I am retired I should have more time, but somehow I don't.
When someone says let's go, I do. I have always worked and never got to

I am finally putting in a round arena-pen. I have old cowboys tell me I need
a big pole, like telephone pole in the middle of the round arena. To me, I

I chose the stallions for two of my horses, but I had my riding horse going
so that when he aged the young horse was ready for riding. No long wait
and when the next foal was five I was ready for her also. But I taught them

Yes, as mentioned on these posts recently, you could wait two and a half years
on a colt or filly waiting for riding age to arrive. There is certainly some
merit in that in terms of bonding etc but it is a long, long time too.
Conversely, I

Hi Lois,
I was blown away by the taxes. And a bit scared about
our future. I'm having a vision of a housing
development that is elderly and animal friendly.
Boarding facilities so you can keep those Fjords, even
when unable to do the work.
