Any Equestrian lovers here?

So you're saying that we shouldn't be able to go enjoy a nice walking path with our dog, who is part of our family, because she's not human? I don't agree with that. We don't take the dog there to poop, as a matter of fact we always make her go before we leave the house. It doesn't matter though because she almost always 'goes' while on a walk. I don't know if it's the walking action, or the excitement, or what. We ALWAYS pick up after her though, and I'm very annoyed by folks that don't pick up their dogs droppings.

As for the horse poo on multi-use trails, I find that pretty annoying as well. I've always managed to avoid the patties though, so it's not such a big deal.

Sorry, poorly written...fine for your dog to WALK on the path, just don't let it POOP on the path. Shouldn't be too hard to find a wooded area for that.

Lisa, Silver Springs Ranch is off 23A on the way to Hunter. I rode there a few times but wasn't too impressed with their trial system. There is another stable on the way to Windham off of route 32, but the name escapes me at the moment. There is a nice trial system at that stable and it's next to state trails which are also available to horsemen. You can go out on an all day ride there and just scratch the surface of the trail options.

It's been 10 years since I rode, but I'll try to research and find the name for you.

Hi Lisa!

After hijacking your thread and taking it down a path you probably never expected, the least I can do is give you the name of that other stable. It's called Bailiwick Ranch and their website is:

Happy trails!
