About STEPHANIE
I bought a draft horse with almost no experience.
Here's everything I learned.
I came to horses as an adult — overwhelmed, under-informed, and completely in love with the idea of a big horse on the trail. Over the past decade I've figured out what works, what costs more than expected, and what nobody tells you before you sign the papers.
My horse is a draft cross, and I've made pretty much every mistake you can make with one. Those mistakes are now your shortcut.
I cover real costs, real training setbacks, real barn drama — and the moments that make all of it worth it. No sponsored perfection. Just honest horse ownership.
