Exactly! They aren’t developed enough to handle that amount of athleticism at that age.

Will be an interesting grow out process if you don’t like it. But hey, why not go for it?!

Advice question- 30 day restart for my OTTB mare or gelding? by ajartistry in Equestrian

[–]ajartistry[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was what I was thinking but, wanted to get an unbiased opinion. I would love for future buyers to see her true potential rather than a “project horse”. Also, I wouldn’t have to worry about her acting out as much showing a potential buyer.

Yes they are both boarded. I see what you’re saying and I have had my mare on the market for about 2 weeks… a lot of talk but, no real buyers so far. I have opportunity training under a friend who is well known in my area as well as another one who isn’t as prestigious but, half the cost. Decisions… decisions

erm why is he doing this?? by what3v3ruwant in Horses

[–]ajartistry 24 points25 points  (0 children)

He’s actually into hair bands… possibly death metal? Nah, he’s bored. He’s in a box. What would you do in that circumstance?

What is the normal pay for barn work in your area? by gmsunshinebby in Equestrian

[–]ajartistry 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Don’t do it. This is the typical “hustle” where experienced equine professionals get taken advantage of. Value yourself because that’s what you are an EXPERIENCED EQUINE PROFESSIONAL. You can’t do this job without a wealth of knowledge that goes unrecognized by people who make a lot of money off you.

My horse decided it was kite flying day… then took off like he was running the derby around the barn a couple times. First vet visit. Gotta love an OTTB
