#stitch with @Aspenjo for some people, competing is their job. Its their income. Its not about a love for horses, a love for riding or even that particular horse. Its aboyt paying the bills. For other people its a love of the sport, a love for riding, and it doesnt make a huge difference if theyre on this horse or that horse. But for SOME, it matters. For some, its about THAT horse ans how much they love them and want to do things WITH THAT horse. Those are the people who will be willing to answer difficult questions with vulnerability and integrity. I wont lie, its painful as hell. But getting through to the other side is SO SO SO worth it 🧡 #horsegirl #equestrian #horsebehaviour #equinebehavior #horseowner #horsetrainer #horsetraining #operantconditioning #positivereinforcement
