Horse and Rider

As a equestrian, horse rider, equine addict, we understand that there has to be a bond between horse and rider.

If there isnt a bond, there is no understanding.

Your horse must know you are in charge, but also, that they can trust you, because you will be the one to teach them new things, and to give them opportunities.

If you dont have this, then you cant learn, or get better, because the horse will not trust you to tell them "you can do this jump" "you can gallop around this barrel"

A bond isnt that you "love" your horse, its when you can predict their next move, when you know what your horse can and cannot do.

When you trust the horse and the horse trusts you

He isnt "mine" but he is. I cant say i have my own horse, but i can say I have a horse. Because i have him.
