Hi r/horses! I am considering posting on my local horse Facebook group to see if anyone has any horses they need exercised in the area. I returned my lease horse because I am getting a real job soon and might have to move any week. But in the meantime I would love to gain some more experience and continue to ride. I am not a crazy good rider, by no means a trainer, but I can exercise horses and am usually up for anything.
Is this a silly idea? Will I meet crazy horse people (yes)? Will people care that I'm not an equitation star or a miracle horse trainer? What's important for a catch rider to be able to do (I can stay on a horse obvi)? I'd even trade mucking or barn work for ride time. I'm a little lost and really bad about just "putting myself out there", so any advice is welcome!
Greetings /r/Horses,
I'm a photographer looking at working on a wildlife documentaries, instead I got an interesting offer from a friend. This friend of mine knowing this who works as a horse whisperer asked if I'd like to make a few promotional videos for the horses at their stable. The videos will be used to showcase horses and their bloodlines for potential buyers. The videos will assist potential buyers that cannot see the horses in person.
Could anyone assist me with advice? Is anyone currently doing this sort of thing? Is it a good idea? Does anyone know how the buying and selling of horses works?
My friend has 26 years experience working/racing Arabian horses so I will have somebody with me who knows how to handle the horses.
Thanks in advance!
