About Me

"Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of solitaire. It is a grand passion. It seizes a person whole, and once it has done so, he will have to accept that his life will be radically changed." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson*********Please check out Rodden Equine's official webpage!!! It is a work in progress.. so please be kind with your comments! http://www.freewebs.com/horstrainir123/ ***********************************************************. ............................................................ ............................................................ .Hello everyone... my name is Rebecca and I am an independent horse trainer working in Louisville, Ky.

What Horse Career suits you?

Competetion Rider
You live to ride. Your best way to go is find a real dream horse and work up to the top. But you have to remember that you can't always win. You're determined, proud, and outgoing, but just keep others in mind, too. Your will to succeed will bring you to great places someday.
