My Top Ten Favorite Horse Stories
Recently Don Charlet of Hurricane, UT brought his granddaughter out to The Ranchette Veley Equestrian Center for summer riding lessons. After purchasing and reading my book, here's what he had to say:
Gail Veley of St. George, UT has written a book that appeals to a very diverse audience. Both "horse people" and non-horse people will find this offering entertaining and educational. Whether intended or just coincidental, Gail blends great story telling with infusing each chapter with "life lessons" that greatly pertain to conquering daily human trials and challenges.
She captures the raw emotion of her extreme passion and love for her equine sport, her students and of course her "ponies."
You may require a few tissues to sop up a tear or two during a few chapters, and having seen her in action giving my granddaughter riding lessons, I guarantee this book was written from the heart. I can't wait for the next "My Top Ten Favorite Horse Stories."

Diamond is Growing Up
At The Ranchette Veley Equestrian Center in St. George, UT one of our most entertaining horses is growing up! Diamond a.k.a. "Tooty" will be three this year and started the new year figuring out how to respond when saddle and bridle also includes a rider. Owned by Denise and Angelina Langston, Tooty was the result of a Premarin drug experiment and headed for slaughter when the Langstons stepped in to be her owner. Although somewhat stunted in growth because of being prematurely weaned from her mother, she will more than likely be 15 hands. The Langston have done what every owner of a young horse should do. They brought her to The Ranchette Veley Equestrian Center at a very young age and have continued to board and have her trained. Tooty is handled daily - haltered, led, turned out and brought back in to her stall each and every day. With his routine she is held accountable to a behavior standard where the rewards include freedom, her social life and food. In addition to her regular saddle training, this has made her easier to handle and be around. Every young horse should have such a program. It has made all the difference. Tooty calmly lunges and then walks with Angelina with her head down and topline relaxed, turning and stopping on command. It has yet to occur to her to misbehave. She sees no reason to. Tooty's near future will include more riding and maturing. We will keep you updated!
