Welcome aboard Trixie,

It sound like you to have a love for horses, they give us alot of feed back, I think that is why so many love horses.

There fun like dogs, in a sense that they show affection and are happy to see us. But also know when they have the upper hand.

Keep trying and hope to see you around in the forum. It is growing slowing but growing and everyone so far seems to be really nice.

The forum is supposed to get a one of a kind look anyday now.. but I haven't seen it.. I am waiting it is supposed to be really cool. (that was me complaining)

I have a son of 6 years and a Daughter of 2 that loves to ride.. She pats her head when she want to ride.. (give me a helmet) so we know she is ready..

Take Care and Happy New Year
