Um.. just a horse crazy kind of gal ;) I'm 16 and have no clue as what I want to do with my life. Of coarse I would like to do something in the horse industry, but could I really make it? I don't know. I've been thinking of equine message/chiro, equine nutritionist, equine repo, and of coarse a vet. But not your regular vet, a holistic one! But the one thing I want to do the most is to own a Shire breeding/showing/fun farm. Were my Shires are not just appealing to the US, but internationally. Also, to inform the public of the breed. To show, not only halter,hitch/cart, and riding. But getting out there and showing ppl drafties can do pretty much everything a light horse can do, and midevile games too! And just going out on the trails and enjoying our shires. I'm a beleaver of not docking tails and keeping horses barefoot, unless proven otherwise. I'll just copy and paste the rest from my myspace. lol I now have two horses! But really want to get another Shire. But anyways: :D The first ones Whinnie, a 8yr old Dun BS Paint mare. And she should be going into training soon for reining! I'm not really much of a reining person, sure I like it but it's not something I want to be really competitive in. I just want her to do something instead of just sitting around with no formal training...My other horse is a 5yr old gray Shire gelding!!He is HUGE!! Well, not too big as drafties go, but HUGE to me. Im only 5'4" lol.So I guess I could consider anything over 15.2 big!
He is 17.2 hands and he's still filling out! He is green broke, has 90 days so far under him. But you would never guess that he is 5, he is such a sweetie! My plan for him is to be in partial dressage training for a few months or however long he needs it. But of coarse I will do tons of different things with him so he dosent get sour. Tons of trails and walking trough the X-contry coarse. Since hes not a real heavy draft, maybe I'll do some jumping with him when he's older and once I loose more wight. But we will probably only do X rails, I don't want to mess up his hocks.. And of coarse I will be taking him to Draft/Shire shows/Fairs to to cart and halter classes!! But probably next year we will start that......I also have another obsession.... Edward Cullen, well in fact everything in the Twilight books. But HELLO who would not be in LOVE with that smexy vampire!!!
