Hey Everyone!!! I am getting my first horse very soon and I think this will be my blog about my life with him/her!
First off, I have been riding for three years now and counting. I have done both English and Western and I really don't have a favorite one. I love hunter/jumper but I also love Barrel Racing too. I just can't decide which one to pursue! If you have a favorite, tell me that! With this being my fist own horse, I really need breed ideas also. I know what a good horse looks like because I do horse judging in FFA. If you or anyone you know ever has any horses for sale around Kansas City or the area, let me know! I am very headstrong and really thin but really tall (5'10 and 124 lbs), I do sports so I have athletic legs and an athletic core but nothing else really. I am NOT afraid of big horses or socially aquward horses either.

I love my horse to no end. I love my boarding facility, it's the home of a good friend i consider family. But when it comes to making a decision for my horse (Omega) , i sometimes feel i have little say in it.
The equine dentist reccomended a different bit, so i finally purchased the one she said to try. I waited months to buy it. Because it became a monumental event. My friend told her friend about it, and her friend sent me a text saying i was ruining my horse and that a new bit wont fix my issues i have becuase i dont know anything and im not a good enough rider. Fine. Im green, i get that, i openly admit it! I need more lessons and time in the saddle. But who are they to say anything! I felt so betrayed. My friend then denied saying anything to her friend.....um....obviousley you DID, you were the only one that knew about it.
I was also lunging omega one day and my friend was telling me he was done. I thought that was my desicion? Just becuase he is a trained horse and he did a circle a couple times doesnt mean I was done.
So with that said.......
How do i do what i want with my horse without hurting the feelings of ones "trying to help"?
im so lost.
Im not an idiot, i know whats right and wrong, and i know the basics.
ugh.

I might learn a thing or two about riding here I certainly need some lessons as my Central American Spanish didn't really get me the technique I might have needed.
I always check the quality of the horse before deciding to go on a horse riding tour.

There are some very important preliminary questions you should always ask when buying a horse. These questions should be asked right up front and should be considered your screening questions. If at all possible, you should ask these questions initially on the phone prior to seeing the horse. If you have an agent/trainer helping you locate a horse, have them ask these questions of the seller. These questions can save all involved a lot of time and you do not want to be known as a “tire kicker”.
- Ask the age of the horse and if papers are available that will indicate the date of birth.
- Though you are going to do your “due diligence” with a pre-purchase exam, make sure you ask about the horse’s health history. Depending on what you are told and what you can live with, you may choose to stop there or move forward. Most horses have had some issues in the past, but by asking what issues there have been, the seller has an obligation to tell you. Additionally, you can have your vet address that issue when he is performing the pre-purchase exam.
- How long has the seller had the horse?
- Why is the horse being sold?
- What has the horse been used for?
- Ask about its experience and training, including how long it has been under saddle and in training.
- What vices does it have? (weaving, cribbing, biting, kicking, barn sour, herd sour, mare-ish when in season, etc..)
- Does it trailer, clip and tie well and does it have good ground manners?
- What level of discipline is the horse experienced at?
- What history does the seller know about the horse?
- Is the horse registered with a breed association or discipline organization?
- Does the horse have a show record and is it available for you to see?
Remember something! It is always easy to buy a horse and much more difficult to sell one. It is your money and your investment. There is always another horse out there, so do not be afraid to ask these questions so you can make an educated decision to see this horse or pass it by.

A very important aspect of creating and maintaining value on your show horse is to maintain very accurate show records. Not only is this proof that your horse can and has done what you say it can do when you are trying to sell him, it is a great tool to use when you are trying to increase insurance on your horse. It is important for other reasons as well, such as, establishing value on a horse that you are donating, or if you are trying to create equity or establish your horse as an asset.
Make sure you have the date of the show, name of the show, location, rating, name of classes entered and division, class number, number of horses in each class, placing of your horse, name of rider and the amount of any winnings.
