From retrieving him from the field to getting ready to ride, it takes 20-30 mins to do the preliminaries. Of course there are questions and stories to tell with instructor Tom. Shown here is William, an Appaloosa gelding(neutered male) horse. He is tall, measuring 17 hands or (17X4″) each hand being 4 inches, approximately. Prior to riding William I was working with a mare named Dream, who is the mother to William and Chaz. These 3 horses I see every day on the bike trail. I’ve been to a dozen lessons over last several months and grown more comfortable with horses behavior and how to approach and make friends with them. They are great listeners.
