Thunder’s Hoof Prints

Ally Oliver

"A horse does not greet the sun and say, ‘today will be better.’ It can only reflect

upon days of past experiences. It is our job to

create a positive past."-Karen West

Overview I rode my first horse when I was 7. I always wanted my own horse. Purchasing Thunder changed how I view

handling horses and made me realize what I want to do with my life.

Before I took weekly lessons. It was my hobby. All I wanted was to ridemy own horse everyday.

After Purchasing Thunder changed me. Working with Thunder made me realize what I want to do in life. My dream of just having my ownhorse has changed.

Before After

Communication I told my

parents. People at the

barn asked me for help with their horses.

Communication I mainly experienced an internal

response I handle horses differently. I became more aware of myself and

what my future had in store for me.

Conclusion Thunder and I ride everyday now. I have a goal for my future. Every horse just needs someone to have

faith in them.

“Give a horse what he needs and he will give you his heart in return.”
