"Hi there, I am an Equine and Nature artist living in the Hawkesbury Region of Sydney. I am an avid watcher after tonight's episode on Aurora. Thank you for your wonderful programme." - Kind Regards, Jenny Oct 2010

Dear Tat and Team,

I met you briefly at the last Equitana in Melbourne (no, I think it was the one before - where does the time go!) I participated in Endurance Riding until the end of 2004, and now just potter around with my horses. Over the past few years, I have been building up my Barefoot Trimming knowledge and practice. Andrew Bowe and I did a presentation at Hidden Valley for the Victoria Arabian Jockey Club, with much interest shown. Anyway, the purpose of this communication was to encourage you in your endeavors towards promoting the horsey lifestyle.

I live in Lancefield, and unfortunately cannot get enough signal from Channel 31 in Melbourne, or UHF from anywhere it seems! Not being terribly impressed by television generally, I'm not planning to spend several hundreds of dollars to get pay TV either! Nor do I have a video or DVD player. I spend much of my time listening to the wireless! My only concession to 'modern communications' is an ADSL Internet connection, so I look forward to seeing your TV programmes packaged in video files, downloadable from your website. I'm having a couple of car-free days, so shortly I'll saddle up and ride into town for lunch and to pick up some vittles for dinner tonight.

Best Regards, Luke, Lancefield, Vic.

Hi Team,

Firstly, thank you for Horserush...My husband who has not a horsey bone in his body and forbids horse talk in the house, watches too.

Could you please let me know cost etc with a link to our website.  We have a motel offering accommodation for horses, dogs and their drivers halfway between Sydney and Brisbane, 1km off the Pacific Highway.

Thank you for your time and look forward to your reply

Take care

Jenny

Hi Tat,

I just wanted to thank you for an absolutely brilliant TV show. Mum and I sit down every Monday night at 7.30 to watch and we LOVE every episode. It's awesome to see an Australian show that is entirely devoted to horses. You guys do a great job and I have to say that I think Carlos is amazing! I heard about him through the NoBit bridles people and got a lovely email from Carlos about bringing on my youngster. It's been a great help, as has your TV show. I've learned so much.

Please say a special hello to Goldie from me - What a stunning horse who looks like alot of fun to own!

Thanks again for your great TV show - I look forward to the 2006 season!

Love,
Allie (NSW)

PS: Attached is a picture of my old horse Milly, who died in February this year - she was hit by lightning. The second picture is of Milly's daughter, Molly, who I've had since April. She's five years old and has just begun under saddle.

Hi there,

First of all I am enjoying your show immensely, love your stories, only complaint that it isn't long enough, its so good I watch the repeats the next morning.

I am the NSW Vice President for the New Forest Ponies Owners and Breeders Promotional group and we would love to have a segment on our ponies.  Is this possible sometime in the future? 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Thank you so much for the DVD on Trailer Loading. I received it yesterday and have watched it 4 times already. I will watch it again in the morning to make sure I know what I am doing, and then Mum and I are going to the paddock to work with Smokey for a few of hours. I hope this works.  I have Pony Club on Sunday but Mum thinks that I will probably still have to ride him there this time, but hopefully not the next time.

We were going through your website and saw that you are having an expo at West Rock Farm. Where is that? We would really like to come if its not too far away from Melton.

Thanks again. I will let you know how we are going with Smokey.

Hi, I just caught your show for the first time tonight on Aurora.  I just found it by accident as I was channel surfing !!

 

It was fantastic to see an Aussie horse show on TV. 

 

I'm a Parelli student and I've just been in the USA at the 2005 Savvy Conference (which is the big annual event for Pat and Linda Parelli at their ranch in Pagosa.

 

I'd love to see some Parelli stuff on your show, especially since some of the highest ranked Parelli instructors around the world are in fact Australians.  Mel Flemming is living back in Tamworth now and was Linda Parelli's right hand in developing the concepts of Riding with Fluidity.  If you're not familiar with the concept, you really should explore it.

Anyway, thanks again and here's hoping we can get some PNH stuff aired (who knows what I may have missed already though)

Hi. Just saw the first episode of Horse Rush on Foxtel. I didn't even know you guys existed!!

We run a horse rescue and welfare organization called Brumby Adoption Association.

We originally set ourselves up as a charity only a few years ago after some friends and I had been rescuing horses and finally got together and took on a mob of WALER brumbies from Newhaven Station N.T.  These horses are the direct descendants of the 160,000 sent off to fight for Australia throughout the war and never allowed to return home .

As we are on the Central Coast of NSW this was a huge task and after 2 years we have finally trained and re-homed most of them.

We have now taken on a number of Standardbreds, since the Trotting Association in Townsville QLD has recently closed.

We are always taking on new horses and do not discriminate on age , breed or gender. We only recently lost our old boy who was 38!!

We are always looking for caring homes and re-home on a free lease arrangement so the horses can not be sold or dogged.

We would be happy to talk with you further about what we do and if you know of anyone looking for horses let them know we are about.

We have a web site at  brumby-adoption.org.

Keep up the great work as we always believe that education is the key to good horse ownership!!!!

Best wishes and if we can help you in any way please let us know.

Regards

Dear Horserush team,

Do you run horse clinics for horse and rider?

At what level and do you include different styles?

 I have ridden 30 of my 45 years ( I would have ridden 45 if I had the opportunity). I have learnt from different aspects and take heed to Monty Roberts and Pat Parelli lines of thought.  I would love to be more involved with others .

Bakki  ( my horse) and I have ridden on our own for 6 years and it is too lonely. We are in great need for involvement. I do not own a float but it is coming up the priority list and the children will have to join in or miss out!

Thank you for your time and the T.V series need more advertising because it is terrific

Yours truly

Rosemary and Bakki

Hi.  I saw you in California, USA at the Western States Horse Expo and I was very impressed.  If you are ever in the states again, I would love to see a clinic. 

Can you put me on a mailing list of notification of you being here?

If you lived here, I would send my 2 yr. old colt to you and have you start working with him.  You are awesome.

Hello,

 We saw guy at the horse expo in Sacramento, California last month. we really enjoyed watching him and talking with him Saturday afternoon. The grey dapple he did the work on there was our neighbours horse (Mickey Cohen) and we were quite impressed.  Where are you located? We weren't sure if you were actually here, in the states, or if you were in Australia. We have several folks interested in training and wanted to find out the particulars.

Thank you for your time. Bill & Wendi

Hi

Last year Horse Rush TV was on Channel 31 in Melbourne and I was wondering when it would be back on.  I enjoyed the show and found it to be very informative.

Hey!

I was at the Melbourne 3DE last year when I saw a small crew of people running around with a camera. I saw on the jacket the name Horse Rush and an URL so I quickly wrote down the website and discovered you guys! Since getting cable, I lost channel 31 but I love watching your episodes over the net. I just love Horse Rush, what you guys are about kicks so much butt. You guys are keeping it real; its so Australian and relevant to our country, we need more stuff like that on TV.

You all must have so much fun... so let us know if you need a graphic designer hehe

Keep it up!

Cheers,

Ellie

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that Guy

McLean's performances were awesome (it was worth

getting my feet sunburned for)!!! What he accomplished

with the Arab gelding in 3 days is more than what some

people can do in years!!!!!! His poem was also very

nice. Please provide information on any tapes/DVD's

of his training clinics that are available.

Thanks,

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to you to purchase the Horse Rush Series 1 DVD which is now available according to your website.  Unfortunately, living in rural Victoria, we haven't had access to your television series so I am looking forward to viewing it on Austar in the near future.

I have heard nothing but good reports about your series and feel that it can only be a huge bonus to all horse lovers in Australia to have a show by Australians for Australians.

Keep up the great work and I will ensure that as many as possible of my equestrian friends in the North East watch your show and support your efforts.

Your website has also helped to renew my interest in Project Hope Horse Rescue and I have applied for membership.  I remember reading about the formation of the group 30 years ago in Rider magazine, and I was in awe of their efforts and endeavors then.  Now 30 years on, the group is still there fighting for the rights and welfare of horses, and I am proud to support a great group of people with practical and realistic ideals.

Please accept my best wishes for your continued success.

Kind Regards

C.H

Hi Guys,

Fantastic to see your program finally available to everyone that has pay T.V. We have a little horse property outside the A.C.T. and have been hanging out to be able to watch your show, I even lobbied Austar to put your show on.

The only problem we have is that Aurora don't have a program listing in the program guide so we don't know what time your show is on, so we were wondering if you might be able to help us out with your programming times.

Thankyou for producing a show dedicated to horses and the people who love them,

kind regards,

Gavin and Karen.

Karen with Buster( the chestnut Q.H.) , Pilgrim ( the paint Clydie cross) and Tegen ( the Staffy).

Hi Guys,

Just thought I would shoot you an email to say thanks for coming over to Perth for the Expo, all of your demonstrations were fantastic and you should hear people talking about it still..

A special thanks to Guy who did a fantastic job with Kai I have him lying down straight away now. So many people have emailed and rang me to say they had seen him and what a wonderful job Guy did with him.

Thanks again Guys it was great to have you here in Perth.

Thank you

Hi Horse Rush Team,

My name is Lorna , and I was browsing the web and saw that your team was coming to Perth in March 2005. I saw that you are looking for horse to work with. WE have a horse which we are currently have some problems with. He is a 15.3 and 3/4 hh part Anderlusion. We brought him for my 13yr old daughter to use for PC  and eventing.

He is very laid back and is a great first horse( having move up for ponies) he also seems to have a very stubborn streak, he has decided that he won't jump ditches. He is not afraid or stressed by them in any way and was happily going over them at PC, and now out of the blue he has set his mind and he will not go over them. Pleases help.

Regards

Lorna


 

Dear Lorna we will have Guy help you with your question ASAP and we thank you for your kind offer....

Today was the first time that I've had the pleasure of watching your program "Horse Rush" on RFD TV on Direct TV. I thought it was great. I hope that you keep your show on RFD and continue with the great programming.

The difference between Brumby's and Mustang's are the "Brumby's" or rather horses were shipped to Australia in 1788 and thereafter and left there for the penal colony and the supporting other people who would be coming there and they were just left. With no one to take care of them many of them died and the others became feral and a gentleman came to Australia from England whose last name was Brumby and when he left, he left horses so when people would inquire whose they were settlers would say there "Brumby's".

The Mustang's on the other hand were brought here to the America's with the Spanish Conquistadors. When they were exploring through Latin America up through Mexico and into the south western United States some of their horses escaped, some were stolen by Native Americans and others were left behind when the Spaniards went back to Spain. These horses became our mustangs of today.

My name is Tracie

Jacksonville, North Carolina

I hope that I gave you enough info for the contest. I have always wanted to come to Australia, but I guess this is as close as I'm going to get.

Thanks!!!!!

Am a horse trainer in Ramona, California.  We just got RFD-TV in my area and I try to catch all the horse programming when I can.  Just saw a couple of your HORSE RUSH-TV  shows.  They are great!  Have seen one on saving brumbies and would love to have a brumby here to train and promote.  I have a mustang mare (now retired) who literally saved my life at a time when I had no horses and could not afford to buy a horse at regular prices.  This mare educated me in starting mustangs and went through the John Lyons certification course with me. 

 I am starting a new project of doing artwork with the help of my mustang mare and myself (I was an artist with Hallmark card company here several years ago.)  If the project "flies" I hope to raise awareness of the mustang here and donate monies to the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) for the horses here and would love to ship some dollars and support to help your brumbies who through your programming I have learned are not protected by your government. 

 Keep up the good work! 

Kay, K and L Ranch, Ramona, CA.

Hi Guys…

We are friends of Dr Sheila Greenwell and Dr Paul, currently up at Earaheedy Station in the process of dam trapping the wild horses your website has a link to. Their website now has an update – recent & close up photos of some of the magnificent horses they are trying to save – in case you are interested.

My husband will be joining them in a few weeks along with two cattle trucks to bring the first lot of horses back – all going well – once we receive the “come and get them!” phone call from Sheila and Paul.

We are WALER owner/breeders, also interested in brumbies, hence the Earaheedy rescue.

The Waler Horse Society of Australia Inc. website can offer a great deal of accurate information on this breed if you are interested. http://www.walerhorse.com/whsa/ Both Dr Greenwell and ourselves are members of the WHSA.

It is possible that the Earaheedy horses MAY be Walers but there is much research to do before that is confirmed or otherwise.  

Cheers for now – keep up the great work – important to share horse world information!!

Kevin & Katherine Margaret River WA Australia
