Realizing a dream at over 70 years of age – that is true joie de vivre and admirable courage! We are delighted that two such wonderful horses have found a new home with two enthusiastic, experienced, and cheerful people.
The two young horses bring energy, joy, and new adventures with them – and the best part is that their new owners are beaming with enthusiasm, as if they were young again themselves.
Showing so much commitment, heart, and love for horses: for true horse lovers, there is no “too late,” only “now more than ever”!
We have now received an enthusiastic message from the buyer, which we would like to share here on our website:
“It’s frightening how little ‘visual material’ we have of our two so far. But I spend 6 to 7 hours a day in the stable (that’s my whole happiness 🤗🤗🤗), Time is running out… and I forgot to take photos again. 🙈
After moving stables, Niebla and Titan now have beautiful large stalls with paddocks (new stables and indoor arena from 2022), plenty of hay, a 20×60 indoor arena, an outdoor riding arena, a round pen, and a carriage area (long side 350m). Extremely popular with Titan… finally able to run without immediately hitting a corner 🤩).
We use everything. In addition, winter paddocks and grazing for 6-9 hours per day.
My husband has been ill since February and is only now starting lunge lessons on Titan. So I have two horses (for everything) every day, which I first had to get used to. I get up at 6:15 a.m. and Niebla is ready to ride at 9:00 a.m., Titan at 9:30 a.m., and everything is now running smoothly for me.
That was a lot to read, but I wanted to share our great joy with you, and maybe someone will come to you who is unsure whether it is possible to start riding again at over 70… it is possible 👍 and you keep forgetting the whole world around you 😍
Dear Ms. Rietbrock, I am relieved that my novel did not force you to “submit your vacation” … A photo is a photo. But the stories behind them say so much more.
YES, share what you like with the outside world. 👍 I would also like to use our story to encourage those who are hesitant to take a risk. How often have I asked myself since September 2, 2024, what madness possessed me to buy these two horses at over 70 years of age?
I thank God for every single day with ‘Niebla’ and ‘Titan’ and now know that my decision was THE RIGHT ONE. I now deal with the daily crap that surrounds me in a conditioned, powerful manner, with a great deal of confidence and distance. ✌
After we got ‘Niebla’ and ‘Titan’ without a ‘purchase advisor’🙈, We hear this sentence more and more often (from various experienced riders): You’ve got two really great horses here. 🤣
‘Beginners’ – Luck❓ No, definitely not. More like ‘love at first sight’. 😍😍”
