Synopsis

A horse is a very special kind of pet. You and your horse develop a bond that in many ways is quite different from that with dogs, cats, and other smaller animals. As with any pets, your horse is totally dependent on you to meet all of its needs. You also must each have total trust in the other. As you work together, you develop a strong bond and this mutual trust. There are many benefits and many important lessons and skills that come with owning or being around horses. Learning how and caring for horses requires dedication and a solid sense of responsibility. Horseback riding, usually the main reason for having a horse, takes commitment and on-going dedication. Riders say that nothing feels better than mastering a challenging riding skill. Successfully communicating with a 1,000-pound animal is a big confidence booster for riders of all levels. A rider must use his brain and body to control and communicate with his horse, which requires focus. Riding takes strength and endurance, athletic ability: Riding is a full-body workout! Through riding, you connect with people of all ages who share a passion and love for horses. You develop a lifelong skill. People of all ages from children up to adults in their 60's and 70's take lessons and show. You can always improve your skills, no matter what your age is. And, riding rarely ever stops being fun. Yes, horses are awesome! In your journal, you will find two pages for each entry you make. Here you can record the title or topic of each entry, what your horse taught you about this, and how you have used or can use what you learned. You may enjoy my "What I Learned from" journals, found at amazon.com. They provide the opportunity to record what you learned from special people and from your pets.
