Is your horse emergency ready?

🤷‍♀️

Please, please, please…..
Take the time to prepare your horse for all possible emergencies!

Parking, leading, float loading & general handling, both at home and off property.

Please don’t wait until there is an emergency to see if your horse is ready….

Keep your horse, yourself and your vet/farrier/body-worker/saddle fitter SAFE by doing the work 🫶

What does the training look like when we break tasks down to small achievable pieces? 🧩

Young horses learning to be super relaxed for float training by learning “park” in different places. ⭐️

Take a look at this young horse being a training superstar 🎖️

Sneak Peek…..

Of my NEW rolled leather neck strap.

The very handsome Brax is modelling the neck strap here in brown - how good does it look!

This new concept in neck straps comes with some great new features making it super versatile. From ba****ck to bridle-less and confidence building in between.

Jon Bon Pony ❤️

Positively the most delightful and adorable little student (and his owner was also delightful!)

Training for health care (farrier and vet etc.) is so important for our horses regardless of their age and size, let’s keep everyone safe.

Thanks to this beautiful owner for prioritising the care and well-being of her pony and her farrier.

I love this pony….
