TD I broke and trained Quarter Horses for 23 years. We showed them all over the United States in AQHA. We had our last horse put down 2 years ago. Tore all my stalls out and converted it to a dog kennel. I will just mow unless you want to come down and mow this ole man s yard for him. I even have a Aussie that will ride with you while mowing.
