Profile Information

About Me:
I have been training with Canadian Olympian Belinda Trussell for the past 11 years at Oakcrest Farms. I have been taking regular clinics with seven time Olympian Christilot Boylen for the past 4 years as well.

I was a member of the 5th placing Canadian Dressage Young Rider Team in 2007 and placed 11th individually.

I made my Grand Prix debut this past summer with my horse Cipriano, owned by Sonia Ucci.

I'm very active in my local dressage club Toronto CADORA. I'm a member of the Executive Board, Chair of the Youth Committee and Editor of the newsletter.

I second that!! I started using Sinew-x a couple of years ago on my young rider horse who was retired from competition, and he felt young again!! My new horse is on it as well and I will continue to be a very faithful user of this product!!

We used to play with our kittens like that. Then we found out that it made them scratch and bite us and made them terrible for the vet and for us to brush or trim their claws. So we stopped.

Hi Andrea. Thanks for adding me as a friend, and my boy thanks you for the compliment. :) He is a sweetie... he loves cuddles and he tries very hard to do what is asked of him (usually *lol*).

Hi Andrea:
No I did not remember my password but Sherri & Dorothy put me on during the last reunion meeting & started me over again.
Its fun to have a response via my email - that was you! I need to sit down & navigate this site as there are many forums that intrigue me that I did not know existed.
Thanks for responding, Pam

There's a few small, local dressage shows that my barn goes to, like Heroncrest Stables Horse Show and I may enter a few classes if my trainer is okay with it. I used to show western, but those days are behind me =)

He severed his tendon last February. Electric fence. Hasn't ever been a problem til then. Took him to Dreamcrest while Kelly and Ian were away and started him up after a year off. Was great!! Tracking up and forward and awesome!!! With any luck I'd like to get him to a bronze dressage show this year. At least that's the plan!!!

So what's the new horses name and how wonderful is he/she?

As a DJ I'm willing to go anywhere! Sometimes overnight accom. is needed, and I haven't been flown anywhere yet, but I'm always up for an adventure.

I'm still enjoying taking care of Robin's barn, and she is wonderful about me having to go be a DJ. Someday I hope it will pay for a horse. But then the hard part comes in finding the right one.

And how is the group at Belinda's. Big changes or still pretty much the same?
I know John moved in but I hadn't heard much else. Say Hi for me.

WHEN Janet Rizzo decided to buy a second horse after her first one was sidelined by an injury, she wanted a mount of comparable ability. She expected to pay a price similar to the $70,000 she spent on her first, 11 years earlier.

But in this withered economy, Surfer Girl, the 12-year-old chestnut mare she brought home f… Continue
