Ah, we are all looking forward to days getting longer again. It gets dark around 3.30 pm, but look at that beautiful sky?

I think I just might have a bad influence on my horses 🤣 I watch them everyday from my living-room window walking calmly up the hill to the back fields. But once I join them for the walk, they all turn into over-excited rodeo buckaroos. It seems that the only one not really in on the joke yet is our little boy Veyron, who tries to follow the circus as best he can.

This is my cutie Veyron Amazing Grace, all of 5 months old. Every afternoon, I spend a bit of time "training" him. He gets hugged, kissed and then all four legs lifted and dusted. He understands the routine and waits for me now to come over and work with him. His mother Grace, on the other hand, has no time to all that fooling around :-)

Winter is upon us now, so the horses don’t move about as much as during grazing season. I try to make sure everyone gets good exercise, and what better way than taking them all for a walk. I stay as close as I can to the Queen of the Stable, Tesse, so as not to get too close to all those bucking, squealing grown up (chronologically at least) warmblood horses. And I must say, Grace has an impressive buck on her 😊 … all happy and fun.

When you get a foal, you try to imagine how it would look when grown up. Here is Miss Red as a 6 months old baby, and look at her now as a beautiful 4 year old.

Most of my horses are used to cows and are good at “owning them” if they get too close. A well deserved kick is always in order to keep those pesky bovines from the hay 😊
Yesterday, the cows got into the field where the warmblood horses have their hay. My lovely Grace was very anxious and kept hiding behind Tesse. But Grace’s children (2 year old, 1 year old, and 5 month old) are made of gold and courage. The three ran after the cows and chased them out of the filed, all the while with Grace prancing up and down along the fence and calling for her children to come back. The vanquishing trio came back looking so proud for chasing the cows – I could almost sense them making fun of their mother who was scared.
This morning the cows wandered back into the horse field. This time Grace charged at them and ran them off 😊 her children ran after her with their tails in the air all looking very excited about seeing their mother in action.
Luckily, I have found the hole in the fence and fixed it so no more cowboying for my warmbloods.
PS! The cows NEVER go near the hay of the Quarter Horses as they know the QH mean business when they chase a cow 😊

A beautiful autumn afternoon for a lovely time with the horses. Little boy Veyron is well integrated with his family herd.

There are many stereotypical comments about Warmblood dressage horses. One of them is that they spook easily, which we have all tried when riding at a show. All the flowers, every corner, the judge's hut are all filled with monsters just waiting to lunge out and eat the warmblood horse.

I think my warmbloods forgot to read all those legends - including the one about scary plastic bags. The joke goes something like this " a plastic bag comes flying into a field and says "booh" to the Quarter Horse in the field. The QH turns calmly around and tells the bag that the warmbloods are in the next field" 🤣

Well, this afternoon I found out that one of my warmbloods - gasp - is scared of plastic bags.

I went out with a bag full of apples to divvy up as best as I could to the herd.
Grace, the beautiful warmblood mama of the three cuties in the picture, ran off into the stable scared of the bag. I went in after her to give her an apple, ooooh scary, out she ran the other way 🤣

The rest of the herd slobbered and grabbed at the bag hoping for just one more apple.

Grace and her baby Veyron are now part of the grown up group. When I go up to my arena to ride, I take the whole party with me. This was the first time for Veyron to see a horse and rider! he was so fascinated watching me ride. Then he got so tired and almost fell asleep standing outside my arena. When we got back to the stable, Veyron plunked down in a stall and slept for several hours 🥰

When raising and training horses, I think it is so important to remember to celebrate the small things too. I woke up in the middle of the night and just could not fall back to sleep; I was trying to figure out how to give Veyron his first de-wormer. This morning, I took the thingy with me in my pocket. Veyron comes over to me and asks "what you got there?, can I chew on it? ", "yes, dearie I said, rather than chewing on my hair ;-) ", so in it went in his mouth - and that is all she wrote :-) De-wormer success story.

This is our 3 year old gelding Wotan - AQHA by PC Frosty Red (Sun frost). Wotan is ready to go to big boy school now; this video shows the very first time he had a rider on his back. He said he was ready and accepted the whole process with no issue whatsoever.

Wotan is available - please contact us for more details.

AQHA by PC Frosty Red (Sun Frost). Wotan with his very first grown up ride, acing it ❤ Several reasons it went so well: Mel of Equine Services does an awesome job of preparing the horse mentally for the first ride; I let Wotan be a horse until he showed he was ready (he is so ready now as a 3 year old); Wotan was never pushed, pressured or forced to do anything - ever! So he gives back by just taking it all in his stride and loving every minute of training.
