    Me, too. It takes time to work with the horses. I've had horses for many years and they continue to astonish me.

    I don't know, but I would imagine so. People in Mounted Patrol love it. Not only are there drills and trainings with the horses, but the Mounted Patrol helps in real search and rescue. We had a tornado here a few weeks ago and the Mounted Patrol patrolled a particularly devasattd area to protect against vandalism.

    Fascinating. Houston is famous! He did beautifully in his tests. I'll have to look for the video of his birth.

    Kind of fun spotting myself in somebody else's video. Doesn't happen often...

    Yes, I'm riding with them. I'm also in your "Washington County Fair 2009". I'm not riding, I'm walking around and you panned by me.

    I'll look for you. Are you still riding with them?

    This was super helpful! I was thinking about training my horse for mounted posse but I don't think he could handle that :p he is 14 years old and all he is use to is trail riding.

      I think your horse can handle it. if you have already done ground work, he is ready. If you have not, then I suggest you start with group work. Carson James and others have a lot of info on youtube on ground work.

      Oh okay, he was already done all his groundwork. And is very broke to ride. Just he would need some work in desensitization.

    To all horse lovers, I need your help. They're opening a horse slaughtering factory in Roswell NM soon. When the USDA inspector comes and inspects the factory they are up and running. They plan to process the meat for human consumption to be shipped to Russia and Asia. KOAT action 7 new in NM has been reporting this for the past several weeks. Please write your senators and governors to stop this cruel and insane act.
