He trained Thoroughbred hunters and jumpers, three gaited and five gaited America Saddle bred show horses; and at one point in his career, totting horses at race tracks in New England. This is a story about Albert Pouler. The horse trainer, it was said, who could train anything with hair on it. He was black as a chunk of wet coal; with a smile so large it made me wonder if he had extra teeth. At five feet eight or so, he was not tall, but when he spoke he seemed to be taller. Exuberance in his voice gave it authority, and made him seem taller than anyone in the room. He had the same effect on horses; when he spoke they sensed his authority and responded as he wished. There is a movie, or maybe a book, about the Horse Whisperer; Albert didn't have to whisper. He spoke and they responded. The story describes his experiences as a gaited horse trainer for a wealthy businessman in New York, talks about him training a three gaited horse colt belonging to a family in central New York, and ultimately follows him to Aroostook County Maine to prepare a trotting horse for a match race against a famous pacer known as the Cock of the North. The reader will come to recognize Albert as a man with the ability to train horses of any breed, gaited show horses, pleasure horses, or the trotters and pacers known as harness horses.
After his retirement from business in 1999, he began a career as a Free Lance Writer. His work has been published in regional magazines and company oriented newsletters related to the environment. He has published two print books describing life as a boy in the 1940s, and a highly acclaimed novel; "Rendezvous with Destiny" a well-paced story about discrimination, love, murder, revenge, redemption, and the ultimate understanding between people with disparate backgrounds in small town America.
Bob is currently working on several short stories soon to be published as an anthology about Maine as it once was.
