Horsing Around
It's hard to lead a cavalry charge if you think you look funny on a horse.
– Adlai Stevenson
A horse's gestation period (time between breeding and birth) is about 11 months, but can be anywhere from 10-12 months.
1.Tying your horse's reins to a post does no good if you then remove the bridle.
2. When throwing your saddle over your horse's back, do not let go. See Law of Inertia: a body in motion tends to remain in motion.
3. Forgetting to tighten the girth before swinging into the saddle gives you a whole new perspective of your horse.
4.Before using a crop to encourage your horse to move, be sure it is facing the direcftion you wish to go.
5.On a five mile long road with a single mud puddle in it, your horse will shy when you are most likely to fall in the puddle. Same for a single cactus in the desert.
6.It is a mistake to believe horses have no sense of humor. They think we are funny.
7.A neophyte rider need waste no time being concerned for his horse's welfare. Your horse knows all about being a horse. Concentrate on your own well being.
8.Horses smell FEAR. Deodorant won't help.
