Back In The Saddle Again

Hi, My name is Jewel. Growing up I had an uncle who had a dude ranch in California. Every summer I would go work on the ranch and help take care on the horses. Never owned a horse of my own cause I was a city gal and dad refused to let me move a horse into the garage. I've always loved horses and will soon be getting my first house in the country and buying my first horse. Yipee!!!!

Very nice back round I tend to be from the city myself original but found more peace and quiet moving to the country. Do you have any idea what breed you are going for or just whatever catches your eye first?

I haven't really decided yet. I love Appaloosa's. I think they're beautiful horses. My uncle had quarter horses and also took in retiring thoroughbreds. I always liked the idea of being able to take in these horses that might otherwise be sent to slaughter.

That seems like a very good idea and I wish more would think they way you do. I see some that are neglected and fined in my area but it seems the courts are still catching up on neglect and slaughter type places.
