THE HORSE EVERYONE WANTS

A lot of people say they want a well-trained horse. Often times, what alot of people really want… is a dull one.

A truly well-trained trained horse expects you to know your s**t.

What your leg is doing means something.
The turn of your wrist means something.
How you move in your seat matters.
How you prepare the reins is a cue.

A well-trained horse is paying attention to every cue your body is communicating to it.

And for riders who haven’t learned that language yet… that can feel like too much or a poorly trained horse. Those riders will start blaming the horse or past training for their own lack of ability to understand what that well-trained horse actually knows.

Meanwhile the “dead broke” dull horse that ignores half of what’s happening on its back feels safe to a lot of people. Not because of it's training... But because it’s learned to tune the rider out.

The truth is, a well-trained horse isn’t harder to ride. It just expects the rider to show up and do their job too. And unfortunately, that makes a lot of people uncomfortable.

I want to do my part to educate others as I have had to do over the years on the importance of knowing the difference and understanding what type of horse is best suited for the rider at the time.

The horse you want might not be the horse you need right now. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

To really enjoy this sport or our horse it really boils down to making the correct investments into ourselves and the horse we choose.

It’s always nice when Jackie has me out to ride her gelding—never a dull moment and always good for a laugh or two 😂🐎

You never quite know what you’re going to get with him, but that’s half the fun. Keeps me on my toes, sharpens my timing, and reminds me not to take things too seriously.

Between the personality, the quirks, and the little victories, it’s always a ride worth showing up for. Appreciate the laughs and the miles, every time 🤍

If I can stand there and blow dry a horse with a cattle blower or a pet dryer… not much else in life is going to phase them.

That noise is steady, loud, air hitting every part of their body — belly, legs, face, tail. It’s invasive. It’s uncomfortable at first. And when they learn to stand, relax, and accept it…

You’ve got a horse that can handle pressure.

Trailers. Loudspeakers. Clipping. Chaos at the show pen.

If they can think through a blower without leaving their feet, they’ve learned how to process instead of react.

It’s not about making them “tolerate” something. It’s teaching them to regulate.

A horse that stands for a blower is usually a horse that stands for life.

Quiet mind > quiet legs.

There is something that hits different about working with a Mustang.

These horses didn’t ask to be gathered. They didn’t choose captivity. One day they’re living wide open, making their own decisions, and the next they’re standing in a pen not knowing what their future holds or who is going to step into their space.

That matters to me.

Every time I step in with one, I’m aware that I’m holding more than a lead rope. I’m holding responsibility. Responsibility to prove that humans don’t have to mean fear, pressure, or the end of everything they knew.

And my favorite moment — the one that gets me every single time — is when they realize they’re not losing their freedom… they’re just learning how to carry it differently.

They learn that softness doesn’t mean weakness.
That structure doesn’t mean control.
That guidance doesn’t mean confinement.

We’re not taking away who they are. We’re giving them the tools to live in a different world and still keep that fire inside.

When a Mustang drops his head, takes a breath, and chooses to trust — that’s earned. That’s not forced. And it’s one of the most honest things you’ll ever feel.

They just need to learn a few things first. And once they do, you can see it in their eye — the understanding that freedom isn’t gone.

It’s just found in a new form.

Henrys first ride outside, ride 15, and the cool thing about Mustangs… Is you’re getting a guaranteed trail broke horse. It’s so wonderful to be able to show this guy freedom again ❤️

Great job Paige 🙌

Trainer to trainer, something worth remembering.

When you’re bringing along young horses, there will be moments that don’t look polished. A spook, a buck, some tension in a new environment — and suddenly there are opinions. Labels get thrown around by people who aren’t in the saddle every day.

But confidence isn’t built in perfect conditions. Horses learn by being ridden, hauled, exposed, and allowed to work through uncertainty with a steady rider. Avoiding those moments doesn’t make them disappear — it just delays the learning.

Part of training is knowing the difference between a horse that needs more experience and one that truly isn’t ready. That discernment comes from time, feel, and responsibility — not outside commentary.

It’s okay to stay focused on the horse in front of you and trust the process you’re committed to. Listen to voices that understand the work, the risks, and the long view. Let the rest pass by.

Progress is often loud.
Confidence is built one experience at a time.
You have to go through the “bad” to get to the good ❤️

🙌 🎉 🙌

Most of you know me as MH Performance Colts — and don’t worry, that business is still going strong. But if you’ve noticed I’ve been a little quieter lately, it’s because I’ve been building something new… and I’m so excited to finally share it.

✨ Introducing Prairie Rose Benefits ✨

Prairie Rose Benefits is my newest venture, where I offer Accident & Sickness, Disability, Critical Illness, and Cancer Protection — coverage designed for real life, not office life.

For the past six years, I’ve been a full-time performance horse trainer and c**t starter. My world has always been fast-paced, hands-on, and unpredictable. I’ve seen firsthand how quickly an accident can happen and how everything can change in a moment — which is exactly why I decided to work with the same company I’ve trusted to insure myself.

That decision turned into Prairie Rose Benefits — a way for me to help protect hardworking people the same way I protect my own livelihood.

I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported me, encouraged me, and stood by my side while I kicked off this new career. This is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to help more people protect themselves, and what they work so hard for.

No matter what we’re working on, clinics with JP are always a blast. There’s never a dull moment — lots of laughs, great conversations, and so much learning packed into every day. It’s one of those environments where you feel comfortable, challenged, and encouraged all at the same time.

Thank you, JP, for the knowledge you share, the patience you have, and the passion you bring to every horse and every rider. What you do truly makes a difference in the horse industry, and I’m grateful to be a part of it. 👏
