How a horse is turned out in grooming plays a huge role in overall eye appeal and first impressions when you’re in the show arena. 3 | AUGUST HORSE&RIDER MONTHLY he moment you enter the show ring, your horse is on display. TAll your diligent grooming efforts are about to pay off. Making a memorable first impression happens in seconds, but it takes much longer to achieve. It’s the result of good horsemanship, proper nutrition, and many hours of hard work. You can’t just decide to start grooming the week before a show or event and expect to have good results. “How a horse is turned out in grooming plays a huge role in overall eye appeal and first impressions. His appearance also automatically gives you an idea of that horse’s overall health,” notes Tina Anderson, who has been an American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA) judge for 15 years.

  • Meet Jan Dobson of Foggy Valley Farms
    Meet Jan Dobson of Foggy Valley Farms Hi: My name is Jan Dobson. I am proud to be the ICAA Representative for District 2 which includes Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, Delaware, and Maryland. My husband Stan and I own Foggy Valley Farms located in the beautiful rolling hills about 60 miles East of Nashville, Tennessee. Stan and I are native Tennesseans who went to high school together and married on February 12, 1965. It’s hard to believe we will be married 50 years in February, 2015. A good portion of those 50 years we have spent loving and raising not only our children but also Appaloosa Horses. Stan grew up on a dairy farm and soon after we married we bought our first farm. One day at a local sale we purchased a chestnut roan - sparse mane and tail Appaloosa mare. Her name was Belle and she became the best all-round family horse ever. Stan could work cows with her; we could go for trail rides, take her to the local Saddle Club on Saturday nights and win at barrel racing and western pleasure. Our kids learned to ride on Belle and refused to have a pony - they wanted to ride “Daddy’s horse”. We decided that if this was what Appaloosas were like then, of course, we wanted more of them. Later we were able to purchase a great Appaloosa Stallion named Cajun’s Vantes. Cajun came from the country music star Jimmy C. Newman’s program and he was the beginning of our registered Appaloosas.

  • R Ules for Judging
    RULES FOR JUDGING A. GENERAL To rein a horse is not only to guide him, but also to control his every movement. The best reined horse should be willingly guided or controlled with little or no apparent re- sistance and dictated to completely. Any movement on his own must be considered a lack of control. All deviations from the exact written pattern must be considered a lack of/or temporary loss of control and therefore a fault that must be marked down according to severity of deviation. RULES FOR JUDGING RULES After deducting all faults, set here within, against execution of the pattern and the horse’s overall performance, credit should be given for smoothness, finesse, attitude, quickness and authority of performing various maneuvers, while using controlled speed which raises the difficulty level and makes him more exciting and pleasing to watch to an audience. The official guideline for the application for the rules for judging shall be as specified in the NRHA Judges Guide. B. SCORING (1) The scoring will be on a basis of zero (0) to Infinity, with seventy (70) denoting an average performance. The individual 1 maneuvers are scored in one-half ( ⁄2) point increments from 1 a low of -1½ (one and one-half to a high of +1 ⁄2 (one and one-half) with a score of zero (0) denoting a maneuver that is correct with no degree of difficulty.

  • Showmanship at Halter
    SHOWMANSHIP AT HALTER Showmanship at Halter is essentially horsemanship on the ground. Where ever horses are bought or sold, a horseman attempts to fit his horse and set him up squarely on his feet and legs so that the horse can be presented to his best advantage to the perspective buyer. Therefore it is essential to understand the basic skills of fitting and showing a horse at halter. There are three aspects involved in showmanship at halter. They are: (1) Fitting the horse; (2) Training the horse; and (3) Showing or presenting the horse. I. Fitting the Horse A. Feeding – It takes a minimum of 45-60 days of feeding 10-15 lbs. of grain a day to fit a horse for halter if he is at or near his normal weight at the time that you start feeding. 1. Horses being fit for show or sale need a high quality balanced diet for maximum growth and conditioning. The average horse needs about 10% protein for maintenance. Horses being fitted should received up to 14% to maximized muscle development and improved hair coat. A mixed feed with vitamins and minerals added is recommended. Adding whole grains (such as oats) to a balanced feed will unbalanced the vitamin-mineral content in the feed and is undesirable. Fat in the form of corn oil can be added to the diet to increase the energy of the feed and add a shine to the hair coat. 2. Exercise is needed to develop muscle and maintain a healthy horse. The horse should be exercised 15 to 30 minutes per day.
