This has been on my mind for a few days. I would love to know how people grew up with horses.
Here is my story so far,
I am only fourteen. My mother has been a riding instructor all of her life, done everything from eventing, to hunting to horse driving trials. At one point when I was about six, we owned about ten horses at once, I had a few shetlands, and sec a's. (first horses) My mother then broke her collar bone one a horse that bolted really badly on her. So all horses and ponies got sold. I stopped riding for about eight years. My mother then took up horse driving trials with her welsh section c last november. So I have been backstepping for her. I then got a first 'ish' horse in May. I had forgotten how to ride, so I am kind of beginning again (I am currently jumping now though, so progressed really well) My horse naps, so he is a hard ride but he has taught me to ride again. My mother and father manafacture horse bedding, haylage, hay etc. So I have also had everything for free. so lucky:')
Would love to know other peoples' stories!
