A couple weeks ago, my dogs got to meet horses up close. They did great.
We were at our camp, And a friend of ours brought her horses and her students (she teaches riding/showing lessons) to our camp.

What a great thing to watch, Horses and dogs swimming side by side.

Charlie and Rocket did great. Of course Shiloh missed the opportunity, because of her aggression towards Rocket.

I was really nervous they would try to chase them, but no, they had perfect manners.

Now that I know this, I want a horse. Go Figure. I have only ridden a few times, so I would need a very mild horse, one that I could handle and the kids could ride. I will also need lots of information on care and handling. As I know absolutely nothing about them.
It would be a year or two before I would even consider able to have one. After we get our house finished and move to our 36 acres. Then I would need a barn. Oh maybe someday. It looks like so much fun, swimming and trail riding etc.

Does anyone here enjoy bareback water riding with their dogs?

Here are a couple pictures.


The yellow dog in these pictures is not Shiloh, but my friends dog.


My youngest son. Both boys got to ride, but didn't get enough pictures.

OH Julie it is a world of fun to go riding with your horse and your dogs. I use to love it and did it daily. Good Luck!
