Spotnota: A Good Horse (Episode 293) - Herm Gailey: A Lifetime with Horses

We made this video about 5 years ago for informational purposes when we made the difficult decision that it would be in his best interest for this nice horse to be in a less physically demanding occupation. For that reason we decided to donate him for use in Wilson College's program for therapeutic riding and to teach a few low key beginner lessons. If you watch this video, you will have a pretty good idea of what I value in a horse. Maybe it is something you might keep in mind when you consider your own horse's training and behavior when evaluating a horse for purchase. About Herm Gailey: Herm Gailey has spent a lifetime with horses. He is a nonprofessional rider who starts and trains his own horses to successful careers in multiple disciplines. Away from the show ring Herm retains a deep respect and appreciation for good reliable trail riding horses and believes that all horses benefit from this type of riding. There is nothing for sale here. If these videos allow one person to avoid fear, frustration, or injury or help one horse get a better deal, then that is payment in full.
