Great experience with "Moses" brought me back to good childhood memories... The relaxation, communication, peace and joy made a great impact on my day...
Moses is a great horse, very big... a little intimidating at first, but very friendly, focused and well structured to work. Poor girl riding in my group... her horse, "Magic", was very young and gave her a hard time, maybe for being scared with all that... The saddle came off from “Magic” and the girl almost gave up on her. Her other two friends were a little anxious too... "Moses" and I, stood calm and relaxed by the end of the line, passing forward all the good vibrations we accumulated since the beginning of that trail ride. One after the other, the two horses in front of us had their pace reestablished in a peaceful walk through the park. People and dogs passed by us with respect for us riders and our horses, specially Moses, in his gigantic frame.
At the top of the hill, when we met the German Shepard, "Moses" put his head down and started scratching his nose, and in a sudden: he sneezed shaking his whole body! You know, like horses do... ;-) I thought I was going to fall and laughing, we kept moving forward.
On our way back to the stable, I felt like he was tired from the walking around the park. I was told that he is about 20 years old and always have been that big and calm.
We crossed the street with the whole group this time and back to the stable, when I dismounted "Moses" I was sure that I'll be back there to see him more often.
