“There’s something about the outside of a horse, that’s good for the inside of a man.” ~Winston Churchill This famous quote is so true.

In our first segment of this series we talked about bloodlines and breed history. Today, we will talk about conformation and disposition. We know that champions come in all shapes and sizes and they all have different dispositions or quirks, which takes me back to the statement that, the horse is only as good as […]
