Bringing Shifty back!

A seven year old TB off the track, with old tendon injuries, was a rehab challenge! Many of these horses are not just physically challenged, but emotionally, particularly when they were stallions throughout their racing career. Taking such a horse after injury, and bringing him back to usefulness, requires a combined effort of patience and understanding of the horses' physical, emotional and intellectual aptitude. Success, is seeing in this photo, the softness, harmony and willingness, between horse and rider. This can only be achieved with the dedication and love for your equine partner.
