Trotting Along With "Now That's a Trot!"

We recently came across the Now That's a Trot! blog, authored by a self-described "horse-crazy Jersey girl" who's dedicated to turning her love of horses into a lucrative career. Ever since her first horseback riding lesson at the age of 11, she's been hooked on horses, and has ridden in many riding styles, including endurance, western, and dressage. Her current love is eventing, and she loves Standardbred horses, particularly the special horse in her life, Willie.

Her posts are full of energy and detail about eventing. It's definitely not just a "trot in the park", and she outlines both the triumphs and hardships that come along with it. We wish her the best, and can't wait to read more about her adventures in the Now That's a Trot! blog!

Meeting The Jumping Percheron

We had the pleasure of meeting Stacey at The Jumping Percheron recently! Stacey has been riding since the very young age of 6, and absolutely loves it. We're proud to report that Stacy is the first, and only, Certified Equestrian Fitness Trainer in Hawaii - that's quite an accomplishment.

She describes her Percheron like "she's my own flesh and blood daughter", so it's refreshing to see how dedicated Stacy is to her horse and horse jumping! Check out her recent post, "Drumroll Please..." and the many great photos and video of Stacy and her horse riding - it's certainly impressive. We wish Stacy the best of luck in her career, and we know she'll always be dedicated to horses!

It's True! You Must Love Horses

Say hello to Jaime Lind from Must Love Horses! Jaime is one great lady we had the pleasure of meeting recently, and she has such a bright, refreshing outlook! Her blog posts describe her love for horses and pursuing her dream of riding around the country in all 50 states, and perhaps a few other countries as well.

Ride along with Jaime and her wonderful horse, Ray, as she enjoys her many adventures and works to fulfill her dream! The posts are beautifully written, with Jaime finding just the right words to describe how riding her horse makes her feel, and describing the location she's currently riding in. It put such a smile on our faces to read one of Jaime's reflections, "At this moment, I was happy. True happiness is so rarely felt, but this is one of those occasions". We hope you'll read more of what Jaime has to say on the Must Love Horses blog.

Riding Along With The C-Horse Event Team!

The C-Horse Event Team blog is one of our favorite horse blogs, and is authored by the very determined and inspiring Cassidy. Even at a young age, Cassidy showed her determination to learning everything she could about proper horse training by making sacrifices to be able to afford formal lessons. She learned that her commitment to horses was real, and has fallen in love with eventing since then.

The C-Horse Event Team blog captures Cassidy's lively spirit and dedication to horse eventing, and her blog will certainly inspire you to keep up with your own dreams, and do all you can to make them a reality! Read about the day to day life of how Cassidy works to ensure her dream continues to be a reality, and her many inspiring triumphs!
