We do!! 2 TWH , 1 QH (NOT gaited! ;} ) and 1 paso- I used to show Q/H for years- also owned a Saddlebred and a Standardbred- the STB got me hooked! Smooth but fast if asked. Yes- could give lessons, and use Parelli Methods if need to call it something. Depending on your breed, it is not way too different riding them, but their mechanics/foot falls and saddle placement make a big difference for comfort!

Well, let me see. Our Belgian will push on a gate, step over a gate, knock down a gate with her foot, push down a gate with her butt, lay on a gate. Yep, I think she's gated!

This is fun right?

Mine just rubs his rump on them, took us a bit to figure out why he had these blue streaks running accross his butt
I ended up having to make our gates "Hot" since i didnt want to have to replace gates ever week

Oh Yeah! I have been busy in Calvert- but would love to help! (especially since I am between contracts) Have the time and need the extra income! ;} Have been going to Greenwell 2 or 3 times a week to keep everyone moving- boring "ride" for the person, great footing and workout for the horses though! I am not formal as far as riding lessons- just been doing it for 35 years- usually evaluate the horse AND the owner- that way we get to the heart of things and start working to get together and keep improving! Surprised your'e not giving clinics App! And BTW, is Dick and Virginia having a clinic- thought it was in Dec?
