I'm surprised we are even allowed to stil ride horses. The one about the baby just unbelievable though. My BIL asked me if riding risky before getting on Sarah Lee. It was like "well yeah" but so is riding in a car or 100 other things we probably do.
I read something interesting that I'm going to try regarding hurrying back though. Yall may already know it but the advise was to turn them away and make them "work" each time in the opposite direction so that they learn if they want to get home they have to walk. Interesting theory. It's a book on horse behavior and there was a lot of "I didn't know that " for me. Just a couple of things that I disagreed from my limited experience on:')
The babysitter needs to be strung up by her Buster Brown's. My gosh, how stupid do you have to be, to tie a 2 year old toddler to a horse or pony????
