Her owner Bente Nürge tells the story of this true all-round horse.

How to Prepare for a Photo Shooting
I just saw that great picture on Instagram and I’d really like to have something like that of me and my horse as well! That’s probably something many of us said or thought in the past. But to get that one picture that stands out, you need to hire a professional, need perfect conditions and be well prepared. In this article, four photographers explain, how you should prepare for a photo shooting.
Horse-Assisted Coaching – what’s that?
Even though, we mostly cover topics that deal with our sport, we all know that there are many other things to do with horses. Plus, we all know how closely our emotions are tied to our horses‘ behavior. This can be hard at times, but also lead to a learning process. The latter is the idea behind the concept of horse-assisted coaching. We have talked to Catharina Falch, who is not only an avid Western Rider, but also a coach for horse-assisted coaching. She told us all about it, the horses they use and why it is more than leading a horse and looking into a crystal ball.
It’s Like Tinder… But for Horses
Finding the perfect stallion for your mare can be a challenge – every breeder knows that. But what if there was a dating app for horses? Something that would make you choice easier? Stella Pfeffer has invented such an app: Stallionista. We talked to the young equestrian from Germany about her invention.
