Hi everybody! I've been looking for a good horse forum to join recently, and after haunting the board this morning, I decided you all looked like a friendly lot and I joined right up.
I'm a former horse owner, but I work with a herd of horses at a camp where I am head wrangler this summer. All types of horses come through there, and I love seeing the campers interact with them. A lot of my saddle time is spent on the trails - I really enjoy a lot of steeper, more challenging trails whenever I'm not with campers - but I also enjoy contesting, giving lessons, and working with young horses.
I also see that you all seem to like horse people who are also dog people. I'll fit right in!
I've got a Black Lab/Pit Bull mix named Wrangler who does everything with me.
Whenever I'm not head wrangling at camp or off having fun with my dog, I work at a tack shop and a local Hallmark store. Looking for something full-time so I can actually own a horse again. There's a gelding at camp I'm hoping to buy in the fall, so here's hoping for a great job!
Looking forward to getting to know all of you!
