2012 CHALLENGE of the UNWANTED HORSE

The Challenge | The Trainers and Students | Event Information

-------------------

What is the Challenge, you ask? Well, we're glad you asked!

Everyone wants to have that horse that can do "everything", which is understandable. We all have day jobs, and there are bills to pay, people to see, and things to do. So when it comes to the horse, wouldn't it be nice to just jump on and go? Well, because of this attitude (and it's a fair one), we oftentimes overlook the horse with limited or no training. We don't have the "eye" to see a diamond in the rough, or we've got too much going on.

Training a horse is a lifetime commitment, even after giving it a good start. You want your horse to be rock-solid when a jogger in blaze orange comes around the corner. You want your horse to stand stock-still when the farrier is working on their feet. You want to ride with the confidence that your horse is not going to explode into a panic the next time you try to trailer them or ride in a busy arena or walk past the dreaded "Horse-Eating Mailbox".

Our goal for this challenge is to show you the diamond in the rough; that while training is an important part, it's about the time you put into a horse that also matters.

To this end, we're inviting trainers from across Minnesota and the neighboring states to step up and show everyone what they can do with the horse that is "Unwanted."

For everyone following along at home, once we have the trainers selected we will have a list of horses and trainers on our website and a blog set up for each specific trainer and student. Finally, we have some information that you, the kind public, might want to know about the upcoming event and hope that you can spread the word about our little challenge.
