Gee, maybe I just figured out who is teaching all of the asshats!

At least in Alabama!
“Bella: 7yo 15.1h Blue eyed Registered American White Horse. She shows in mini stirrup and we use her for beginner through advanced lessons- both English and western. She gets used also for birthday parties and camps. This mare is super bombproof even with beginners on trail rides with wagons! She is a great trail horse, and is a beauty to boot. She was bred to my white stallion with blue eyes. Their baby, Skylar, was sold as a unicorn to nice people who work the renaissance festivals! He was also white with blue eyes. $3,500. obo “
Don’t we all break out our Trakehner crosses at age two, in a western saddle with just one of those thin little navajo pads under it? Yep, she certainly looks well-developed and ready to ride, doesn’t she? But hey, no time like the present for her to learn to go “properly” under saddle.
*drips sarcasm*
“Lilly: Sweet 2 yo 15.1 Trakhener cross filly. 2 white sox. Beautiful, floaty movement. Built very athletically for either dressage or jumping. Very talented youngster. Currently learning how to go properly under saddle. $2,500 obo.”
Here’s my favorite pic of Miss Expert Instructor. ‘Cause we all know over a fence you should throw your ass as far skyward as possible! That looks goooooood.
All right, I’m gonna go outside now and tell the VLC how damn lucky he is that he doesn’t live at the Mobile Riding Academy, and how he’d freaking damn well better appreciate it and behave himself forever.

Just wanted to point out that she is NOT a level 2 Parelli instructor. There are only 10 level 2 instructors in the US. She says she is “Level II Perelli trained” , whatever that means. Seems to me that if you studying it and had spend all the money on it you could at least spell Parelli.
In reference to the “Registered American White Horse”:
The American White Horse Assoc foundation horse was “Old KIng” purchased by Caleb & Hudson Thompson of West Point, Nebraska in 1917 to be the foundation sire of a new breed of horse they then successfully developed by “using very select, scientific inbreeding methods”. (Foundation mares were mostly Morgan bloodlines.) And by “Unicorn” they are refering to what is called a “Unicorn hitch” meaning that the team of horses is hitched one in front instead of side by side as usually hitched. I’m guessing this foal was purchased as a match for a pair. There is a supper hitch of eight Am White horses out of Texas that do shows and exibits all over the U.S.
As a current student at Findlay, I have to comment on the “asshat” comment. Yeah its true, there are some serious Asshats that come out of this program, but to be fair, they came in as asshats. Many of those whom I can’t stand in that program came in with a “I’m already a great trainer! I don’t need to learn! Everything I do is absolute magic and no champion trainer can tell me otherwise!”Sadly, these are also the asshats that do stupid shit and get negative attention brought upon the rest of us. Please know there are many very talented people in the program who happen to possess common sense and compassion. AMAZING! People who ride in ways that 4H-ers cringe at who hide behind the University of Findlay name drive me straight up the wall.
I know this is an old post but when I saw she was breeding white horses I had to say something, I don’t know much about genetics but is breeding all these white horses just asking for lethal white babies?
That white mare is cute. She looks like a decent family horse. Never the less, she is only worth a few hundred $$ and should never breed.
