Therapeutic Riding has become more and more well known, which is fantastic. However with more centres popping please make sure of a few things:

You wouldn’t choose a dentist whose qualifications were “loves teeth and did a weekend course”—so before you book any equine-assisted session check:

• The people: Do they have appropriate qualifications, certifications, Garda Vetting, practical experience and insurance for the service they offer—and do they understand the limits of their role?

• The horses: Are they well cared for, listened to and able to take breaks or decline participation? Standing still doesn’t always mean happy.

• The service: What exactly are you paying for, how might it help, and is it suitable for you or your child?

A thoroughbred, a Shetland, a miniature horse, 3 Valais sheep and two Heinz 57 ponies walk into a bar……

What a good ride to end on before his break! Gorgeous trots and lovely canters❤️
Yesterday was a big test for his baby brain. We had Hannah from The Saddle Fitting Therapist out to fit us with a new saddle (which we will have in the new year). But at the same time we had the electrician working on the yard, running cable and drilling. He spooked a couple of times but then accepted the strange noises. We had four saddles to try and this is where his patience was running thin (typical toddler). But he tried his heart out, even when the sheep, the Shetland’s and Chester were around the arena - and Chester, in his need to pursue his one true love, Pearls, went under a railing and sent it flying.
He took it all in his stride and this morning all was forgotten and he worked so well.
For context on the chaos both Hannah and myself said that if it was Arthur (bless him) we would have had to cancel the saddle fitting. Learning a new horse is always so hard and trying not to carry the old habits with you.
While he’s going on a ridden break we are still going to do ground work and fun stuff together to build our relationship.

A morning schooling 💛 He was an absolute saint! Worked so well in trot and then we cantered again on the right rein (his weak side) and he did a full lap and no little “bucks”. I was beaming 🤩😁
I know we will have bad days, but I cannot express how amazing it is not to have a horse that literally spooks at the same thing every single day. I love and loved Arthur dearly, but his spook rate was incredibly high. So just schooling around on my 4 year old as if he’s been here his entire life is just amazing. He does need to get better at selfies though 😅
