FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About Horses and Riding
Welcome to the harmony FAQ page! Just in case you don't know - but I'm sure you do - FAQ stands for Frequently Asked Questions. Over the years I've been asked a lot of questions. I take every question seriously and give it my fullest attention. If I can't answer it I'll tell you and I'll try to point you in the direction of someone who can! That being said, there's a wide variety of questions I can answer! I've been in the equine industry a long time -over 27 years- and have done everything, from running the largest public trail riding facility in Ontario, Canada to managing a Hunter/Jumper barn... from riding Arabs to Hunters, Dressage and Reining. I've worked with ponies, mules, donkeys and draft horses! And to top it off I've worked with a lot of very interesting clients and super knowledgeable peers in this industry. So don't be shy... send me your question and see what it gets you! I can usually answer within a couple of days (have to get the horses taken care of first!) Over the years I've had questions come in from Colorado, Ohio, Vancouver, Nova Scotia as well as a number from Europe. Just goes to show you that horse lovers are everywhere and everyone wants to learn all about horses! I've had questions about horse nutrition, equine behavior, cowboy boots, equine assisted therapy, how to buy used western saddles, how to find a boarding stable and choosing the right riding stable for lessons. Check it out and you'll find some interesting stuff and maybe you'll ask a question of your own!
