I had horses as a kid, junior hunter/jumper and 3 day.  I wanted to go  "to 
the racetrack".  One day, there was an article in the Philadelphia  Inquirer 
about the youngest female trainer ever, just 21 years old.  Truth  is, I lied 
about my age so I could go to the track sooner; I was really  19.  I kept a 
string of 10-15 horses in training w/ maybe another 5 on  lay-up at various 
farms, 
managed help, dealt with owners, went to the auctions,  made payroll.
 
Dog people aren't so tough.  Now, horseMEN, on the backstretch of a  
racetrack in the late 70's early 80's...that was tough.
 
If you want something bad enough you work through whatever is thrown at  you. 
 If a few nay-sayers are enough to turn you off, you never would have  lasted 
through the hurt and disappointment that is part and parcel of  having 
animals in your life.
