Too often, riders wait for the big signs, the bucking, rearing, kicking, biting, to recognize that something’s wrong. But by the time your horse gets to that point, they’ve likely been trying to tell you for a long time.

Pain doesn’t always shout right away. Sometimes it whispers.

You reach for the halter, and your horse turns away.
You approach with the saddle, and he moves away
You lay the saddle pad on his back and he flinches, barely, just for a moment.

These subtle moments are where communication begins.

And when we don’t listen?

The horse learns they have to speak louder. That’s when the behaviours escalate, when discomfort becomes pain, and pain becomes desperation.

And yet, how many times do we hear…

“My horse is so sensitive, I’d know if something was wrong.”

All while the small signs are missed, or worse, dismissed.
Your horse is always communicating.

Are you tuned in to hear the whisper before it turns into a scream?

The foal at the stables is changing colour, looks like she will be a liver chestnut.

I decided to put a form of rubber matting in Captains stable. It is extremely difficult to buy them here in Cyprus, so I used decorative flooring mats that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. It looked lovely, but not for long!🤦‍♀️
I tried 🤷‍♀️
Plus,😅 the youngest dog at the stables like to run off with a square every night and chew on it

I use the Ridely app to track Captain and my rides, either hacking or schooling. It is interesting to see how far we have traveled and at what speed.

Drove home from Larnaca this afternoon towards this wild fire. Hopefully it doesn't get as far as us.
The other photos are of a fire on the way to Captains stables. Again, thankfully stopped before the stables.
