  • Her bond with Dreamer is amazing, she knows him inside-and-out, and has taught him behviors that enable her to easily mount, ride and dismount when she is having difficult days due to her rare genetic dissorder, Ehlor Danlos Syndrome type 3 and 4.  
  • She has taught him to lay down and allow her to bring her wheel chair, walker and/or crutches over to him so she can then mount.  He is also trained to lay down for her to dismount, or stand and support her while she slides off his rump to land softly on the ground.
  • He is cued into her every move and has on many occassions come to her when she is teaching lessons with a rider because he noticed her knee buckle and dislocate.
  • THEY are an amazing team!
  • Lindsey loves to share her knowledge of Dreamer, and teach equitation skills to our riders.
