One of the reasons I bought Tiff is that she's broke to ride and drive. She has a lot more experience with driving than with riding, so I am enlisting the experience and knowledge of Ali, a student at the local university. She has lots of experience training hunter\jumpers, leading trail rides, and giving lessons. While I rode saddleseat growing up, I'm limited in my knowledge of working with horses to get them trail ready. (I'm a little embarassed to say I've only been trail riding a couple of times-most of my experience has been riding around rings and up and down barn aisleways). So, Ali not only agreed to train Tiff once a week, she will also be giving me a few riding lessons.
At any rate (after about an hour of horse fiascos-which is another post), Ali put Tiff through her paces. They walked, trotted, cantered, backed, and pivoted. Tiff was so well behaved and gave her rider 100% effort. Ali had a blast riding her and I can't wait to hop on myself!
