do you show jump? Or just jump for fun?

Oh! She's gorgeous! Looks like you've put alot of elbow grease into her coat!
i wish i could just go out and ride my horse. She gets me so scared when I think about riding her. i know I shouldn't be scared i should just ride her because I can handle her, but things always go wrong when i ride her so I think I am going to ride her on my lessons for the next few weeks ( Western) to boost my confidence on Ruby.

aww... I've been scared on horses, but not scared of riding certain horses. Because horses have bolted while I'm on them, and one reared because my mom gently patted it on the hind quarters gently, and the horse reared with me on, next thing I know it's bolting into the barn(me still on it of course).

I used to have western lessons... ones at 3, then once at 6, then some more at 8... then I went to my cousin's in Minisota, and my cousin taught my how to ride western better than lessons did! lol! I had english lessons for awhile(had 26 lessons), but can't anymore, don't have the $$, and we're moving in like a few months to a place were we can own horses!

Thanks Weeizy. I have the same thing with Dancer. There are some days where I'm afraid to ride because I'm afraid she'll buck or spook on me, but when my dad pushes me everything is ok. Hope you and Ruby get along ok.

Well I rode her today at my lesson I told my instructor that I was going to ride her instead of the barrel horse I usually ride to show myself that I could. i saddled her up and just went straight into the arena! I didn't even have to warm her up!!!!!!!!! there were even the ....well their white cows ...in the pasture next to it and she didn't even give them a second glance....well actually she did but that's because she's a wannabe cow horse...... WE worked her on barrel training a stuff and she did good!!!!! * huggles Ruby*

Wow!! Lovely horse Lady Raine! And you are very pretty yourself
I only jump just for fun. Maybe sometime this summer I will show in it, but im not sure yet.
I have fallen off and been reared on as well, but I usually never get scared. Expecually on my horse, I trust her very much and I know she would never do anything
I have been kicked by a horse before when i was in 6th grade and I had to go to the hospital. Thankfully I didnt break anything. I was scared for a little while about going into the fields, but now im prefectly fine again

Awwww *huggles* I hate being sick. GET BETTER! Haha. I havent had many lessons either cuz of the weather. I did get to ride the other day though! It was so fun. I did bareback, but I could only walk and trot cuz the ground wasnt soft enough to canter. I hope you feel better weeziey! Sorry about your lesson

It's 9 degrees here. I didn't go riding, dad and I went over to my riding instructer and he cleaned out Dancer's pen while I gave her a good brushing. I think she seemed to enjoy it. I can't wait! My riding instructer's mare Poco is going to have a baby soon! Must be nice living in Florida...

Awww, that's not good.
I remember a month ago, when I had no voice for like 3 days and no one could figure out why.
