What Is USEF Policy If A Horse Kicks Another Horse In The Schooling Area? ?If A Horse kicks another Horse at A show (non-rated), is it considered ride at your own risk? Anyone with A knowledge of Usef rules, can you direct me to the citation in the rule book? Who is liable, if any? Horses are animals, if you invade their privacy they will react. Less sensitive horses may pin their ears, others may kick when you run up on them or head on. A red ribbon won't do much good when the Horse that was kicked came head on and almost touched stirrup irons while moving. [ Read More ]

How Should I Braid My Horse In An Open Breed Schooling Show When Showing English Pleasure?I have A QH cross and would like to braid him up at the Horse show coming up in June. It's A large Horse show so I want him to stand out. He'll be in english classes including equitation and pleasure. He has A longer mane, maybe 12in at the longest? It's not evenly that long the whole length of the neck (unfortunatly). I'm not ready to cut it so was wondering what braids would be acceptable. [ Read More ]

Would This Horse Make A Good Schooling Show Hunter?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nq6aA3hx6W4 I am leasing her and I will train her over fences. Do you think she could make it pretty well as A Schooling show hunter for kids? Yeah, this is my second time riding her and she hasn't been ridden in over A year and then she was just A trail horse. She doesn't bend and we have tons of work to do, but I was just wondering. She doesn't jump yet, but I am just doing pole work with her. [ Read More ]

Any Ideas To Make Jump Schooling Interesting? And How Often Do You Think A Horse Should Be Jumped A Week?I already grid work and pole work but any other ideas to make jumping varied and interesting for the pony. Also I was wondering how often you think A Horse should be jumped A week. I personally do competitions every other weekend on A well established pony so i usually jump once A week and on A competition week i only jump on the comp day because the pony knows what it is doing!

Have You Ever Allowed Your Horse To Be A School Horse?I am going to college in the fall and i have 4 horses, and i wont have enough time to exercise them and everything.

It is A very good riding school which cares for thier horses well...but would you still trust them? [ Read More ]

Schooling/open Horse Shows In Oregon?Am starting to look for Schooling Horse shows in Oregon as A way to market A 4-H type quarter Horse for sale. He'd been ridden mostly western prior to me working with him, but I've been working on basic dressage and A bit of jumping with him, which he really enjoys. He's cute and comfortable, but not fancy enough to warrant recognized showing as A means of advertisement, though I do believe he will likely be competitive at the local level. Does anyone have suggestions of some small Horse shows that would be good, laid back showing experiences for him? Thanks Ron Sr. for your honest opinion. That is what I was trying to say but failed at in my original question. I think he could really shine in the english pleasure arena (as opposed to the more 'sport horse' style competitions as I have more experience with) but as I have not shown in those divisions before, I am unsure what venues would provide an appropriate place to begin.

Getting A Schooling Horse To Work From Behind?I am leasing A very lovely, sound, gelding from the stable I ride at. He's about 11 years old, and was used as A Schooling Horse at what I like to call A 'lesson factory' for A number of years before coming to the barn I ride at. He was ridden 5 days A week by children of all sorts of disciplines from beginner to advanced, and therefore he is just all over the place with his training. He is, of course, very lazy and does not like to get moving forward at all, but after working with him on that for A while he is doing A fine job. My question is-what are some exercises I can do with him to get him working from behind? He is only ridden by one other girl in A lesson once A week, and I'm the only one riding him 4 other days out of the week. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated Also-I've been trying to work with him on getting him to 'soften' his body around my leg aids. And he is doing well with that-bending around my leg and what have you. Just thought I would toss that in there as well. [ Read More ]

What Does A Rider With Schooling Mean To You?I have been applying and riding at various places around school (college) I have A vast background in horses ranging from 8 years of schooling, to 4 years in therapy riding work and freelance stuff. I was curious what having someone with A background in A Horse Schooling environment (ie lessons) vs, someone that just rode to ride. I am curious because some of the Horse people that I meet (who are mighty good) have had no formal training at all. And no, the Schooling horses I used were not on auto, though maybe when I started, but not in the end of things. [ Read More ]

Can I School My Horse On An Uneven Surface?I am currently keeping my Horse on A small yard that I rent myself - the problem for me is that it has no school. I would love to keep my Schooling up to scratch so that my Horse is balanced, which will help me when I come to competing (show jumping) and the only place that is available to school in is one of the grazing fields. However this field is uneven with several hills and dips. Is this suitable for Schooling or is it likely to cause injury to either me or my Horse when Schooling on this? [ Read More ]
