10. DynaPro probiotic & DynaSpark electrolyte (cause you just never know when someone's horse is going to stop drinking and/or colic).

9. quality handmade tack - lasts a lifetime and feels like buttah
8. sharp clippers - gotta keep them looking dapper
7. electricity in the barn - doing chores in the dark is just no fun
6. perfect dirt - arena footing is essential for avoiding body soreness / injury, not to mention that ever essential sliding stop

5. a good chiropractor - for the horses as well as myself
4. a quality veterinarian - I know they all went to school and got a degree, but they are not all created equal

3. a knowledgeable corrective shoer - no foot, no horse it's just that simple
2. a great dog - who else is going to supervise?
1. a supportive husband who works hard, is my biggest cheerleader and pays for my habit.
