At that point the day came in your late 50's you had a the chance to purchase your first steed. Is it true that you are to old to go up against this wonderful, grand, amazing creature?



As I would see it, you are not, I say that since I moved to the nation at 57 and purchased my first pony at 58. What did I think about when I was picking my steed? First I thought of what I was able to do physically, in view of that I figured I wouldn't need a pony over 15hh, anything bigger than that makes for a greater fall and conceivable broken bones.

My second thought was the steeds age and disposition, a decent old bombproof steed that I could move myself once more into riding with. At that point there is breed I wasn't complained about breed, simply on the grounds that as a youngster I rode a variety of breeds, and how quiet a pony is, is more about how they are prepared and treated not the breed.

I was thinking Quarter pony or Standardbred, I rented a Standardbred in my late 30's and he was extremely quiet however he could be exceptionally obstinate. One breed I never considered was a Thoroughbred, I figured this breed might be path over my head and from what I'd seen watching horse hustling, my thinking was awfully exceedingly hung for me.

In the wake of thinking about all the above I began searching for my fantasy steed, and I discovered him. It didn't take yearn for me to go gaga for a steed I found in a promotion on Facebook. This is the place I begun scrutinizing my mental soundness, this steed is 16.1hh 11 yr old off the track pure breed, he wasn't ridden since his dashing days and I didn't know whether he was sound.

Actually I couldn't have cared less, I went gaga for the steed in the promotion and I fell considerably more enamored when I met him. Better believe it so he's a pure breed, he needs re-teaching and as a delight horse he is green, however so am I. I used to ride feisty steeds however I was 16 not 58... so I ask myself "What were you considering" my answer is I wasn't considering, I just realized this kid was for me.

So now the following inquiry is am I excessively green and excessively old interpretation of this mammoth errand to get my steed sound enough to work with and in the end ride. On the off chance that I had no involvement with ponies by any stretch of the imagination, maybe it might be too enormous an undertaking for me. In the event that there was no such thing as the web, again it might be too enormous an undertaking for me. The thing is I trust I can do this and I adore and trust my kid and I realize he cherishes and confides in me.

Something else to consider is wellness, I am not excessively unfit but rather, making it impossible to begin foundation I have to venture up my wellness which I am dealing with now. Age is only a number, on the off chance that you have the energy, the adoration and the dedication nothing is unimaginable. Figure out how to peruse your pony and hear him out and dependably make security a need, ponies are huge ground-breaking creatures and can do us some genuine harm, regardless of whether inadvertently.
