How can you ride a horse without bouncing up and down in the saddle all the time?
Ariel 128 asked:
I’ve ridden a horse about 10 times in my life and my father will not let me rid his huge working cow horses. All my friends and I get are the smaller gentler ponies and horses. All we do is bounce up and down in the saddle. Help! Guess what? We live in Texas. We could all pass for New Englanders from the city.

I train horses for all-around and gaming events, but i got a horse in to train for western pleasure. I know how to get their gates to be slow, but i can’t get the horse to drop his head.

How much does it cost to have a horse trailered from California to Colorado?
Ally asked:
My old horse trainer bought my horse off of my before I moved from San Diego to Denver. She still hasn’t paid me the money she owes me for the horse, so I’m going to take her back (it was in our contract that if at any time before I got paid I wanted the horse back, she would have to give her up without any trouble). I moved during summer, and I still don’t have my money, so I want the horse. How much would it cost to have a horse trailered from San Diego to Denver?

How much time should I spend with my horse?
googoodollsss asked:
I just bought my first horse, and she is being broke right now to ride and has already been ridden and is great with ground manners. I am a full time worker and was wondering how some of you fit time for your horse if you work an 8-5, and if it’s bad if you only see your horse 2-3 times a week? Like many full time white collar workers I get the weekends off, and would be close to my horse so I may only be able to spend 1 or 2 horse twice a week during my work week, but all day on the 2 days I have off. Any suggestions? I just want my horse to feel loved and not hate me or forget her training because I’m not seeing her every single day. All suggestions and advice are greatly appreciated! Thanks.

What does a horse purchasing contract include?
Lotus Blossom asked:
I am purchasing a horse from overseas. I want to have a vet check for soundness before the horse goes to quarantine where he will be tested for general equine viruses by the government vet. The purchasing contract the seller sent me is weak, and of course doesn’t cover any of my interests. Please tell me what should be included in my purchasing agreement.

How old does a shire horse have to be before it can be ridden?
offlights asked:
I once heard/read that horses need to be 5 years old before their bones are strong enough. I want to own a Shire horse someday and would like to know if they can be ridden earlier because they are stronger. I have always been curious about this. If you can give me websites or reccomend books on shire horses and horses in general(careing for them mostly)that would be great.
