My name is Jennifer Hazelwood and I’m a crazy horse lover! As most horse lovers know, I’m sure your passion for horses started when you were a little girl or boy. It did for me at the age of 6! One lesson on a BIG palomino gelding named Seabiscuit was all it took for me! I have been riding horses all my life and even competed some when I was “younger”. I recently bought a horse last year after almost 20 years without one and boy let me tell you, it’s been the best year of my life! Well, aside from being with my boyfriend! I hope to share my stories and journey with my boy Chief with you, as we learn together and become bonded as one. I’ve had a few ups and downs with him already, but we are learning together and I wouldn’t trade him

The thought of going to another gymnastics class or ballet class just made me nauseated. The butterflies I felt in my stomach were not the good kind. I really did try my hardest to do well. The dreaded hours with the other girls in class and listening to the teacher talk about parallel bars and plié squats just made me cry. I was always daydreaming of doing anything else but this. I hated doing cartwheels and walking on a balance beam. Those ballet slippers and pink tights just weren&rsqu...

Riding With The Herd

By Jennifer Hazelwood 12-07-2019

Imagine the feel of the wind blowing against your face in a beautiful wooded area. The sun shining down as your heart beats faster. The sound of the birds whistling in the trees. Then all of a sudden, you hear it. The hoofbeats of horses coming up behind you. Faster and faster. Louder and louder. You look forward. You give your horse a little squeeze. You feel his heart beating faster as you race across an open field. You feel free. Your heart beating so fast your chest almost hurts. You look ar...
