Oh Craigslist, You Amuse Me So!

How about the first one? Would any of you take those lessons? 

Umm, it's gonna take you at least a month to learn to gallop..... Likely more. And that's if you ride every day.

Lol where's the lesson on getting bucked off? I used to have a reining mare that could have challenged Clint Eastwood.

Lesson number 1: How to make dirty Harry eat dirt

I owned that same horse. Except once he got rid of me he ran back to the barn, not caring one little bit about how far I had to walk.

I am very glad I get to ride the sweetest horse ever.... Having to ride a horse that's a struggle to work with never appealed to me.

For some reason i love riding chalenging horses... its probably because ive been riding them for years.

You would have loved Annie then; she was a real challenge

The last time she was ridden was when she was green broke right from the feedyards. She was an excellent cow horse, but she had been abused at the yard so she was really skittish. Our hired hand was riding her while driving some cattle home one time, and I guess she knew better than he did, because the cattle started to run, and the last thing I heard from him was, "WHOA ANNIE!WHOA WHOA WHOA ANNIE! WHOA!".... Then she went and headed the cattle off sans rider. She became our best brood mare; surprisingly, many a fine pleasure horse she foaled, but nobody ever rode her again



Oh, there it was, in lesson number 3 I think... Trot, gallop, WHOA.

lol For a brief time the only horses I had access to where tough ones, I am not super actively looking for a horse to break and train. I think it would be a ton of fun
