My name is Susan Bozorgi and I have just started writing my first Blog; Bits and Pieces from Believe It Farm. Horses have been a part of my life since I was a very young starting with lessons at the local riding school. My Dad shared my love of horses and together we explored everything we could find that involved these noble animals. From trail riding to horse showing, from breeding to touring Ireland on horseback, we had a blast. Dressage, Hunter/Jumpers, Western Pleasure, Trail riding, and Driving, I love it all! Lucky for me I met a guy who also loves horses, enough so that he willingly agreed to a honeymoon in Portugal at a dressage center riding Andalusians. Our two children, Alec and Amanda, share our passion and have joined us on adventures around the world seeking a connection with other people and places through horses. We enjoy the thrill and challenge of competition and have had the good fortune to enjoy competing in the Hunters, Jumpers, and Equitation divisions. Alec pressed on and has enjoyed success at the upper levels of the Sport and is currently living and working in the horse industry in the Netherlands. We have our own farm now, Believe It Farm, where we keep our personal horses and board and care for client’s horses. In addition to our own riding our work also involves caring for horses needing recovery and rehabilitation from injury or surgery. This year we have added a new focus, breeding. The ever-present herd of retirees watch over all of this and help out when they are needed to soothe a horse stuck on stall rest or returning to turnout. I look forward to writing this blog and connecting with others who find horses and what they can teach us as interesting as I do.
