Our guest this week is American multi-discipline rider and driver Carrie Wehle who can turn her hand to a number of equestrian sports from dressage to driving. A lifelong horsewoman Carrie recently competed in the USEA American Eventing Championships, the sport she says which is her first love. But she’s just as adept at pure dressage or out fox hunting. Her family raised Standardbreds from the 1000 acre farm in upstate New York until Carrie took over the reins and downsized to a more manageable 400 acres. Since the age of 12 when she got her first horse Carrie has built up her business and now has 50 horses on the property with loyal clients who share her values and love of horses. Chris Stafford spoke to Carrie about how she balances her competitive interests and what new equestrian sport she would like to take on next.
