our cdes around here are similarly expensive. i go to an occasional ads pleasure or fun show, but the cdes are out of my budget. even the adts around here are expensive. i can show breed shows for a lot less money plus get qualified and earn points for my money! i realize that not everyone...

i will preface this with a note for newbies- please do NOT leave your training area until your horse is well broke and knows WHOA well! be sure you can handle your horse in the arena before you venture out! since he is (already broke and) bored, immature, unmotivated, or souring- i would...
