All settled in for our next bug event. But remember dont get lost in your head. Stay tuned in on your other half. Our horses aren’t machines. They’re our partners. At every show, their wellbeing comes before the clock, the check, and the prizes. Because true success isn’t measured in wins — it’s measured in the bond we share and the care we give back. 🔥

With what I’ve been seeing in the community recently, This needs to be shared! Don’t own a horse if you’re unwilling to provide proper maintenance, care and injections! I don’t care who you are. Don’t run them through pain. They are our partners in the arena and we need to treat them accordingly.

Maintenance, maintenance, maintenance
Do I need to say it again?
Horses put their bodies through hell to do the things we ask them to do.
As a general rule the higher caliber the horse the more maintenance they will require. Why is this? Because they are exerting themselves that much harder. For every half second you shave off your runs you are adding significant wear and tear to your horses body. We expect these horses to go out and preform miracles over and over again and a lot of the time in less than ideal ground. So maintaining them should be at the top of your priority list! Don’t wait until they are showing signs of something being wrong before you get them checked out. Don’t wait until they are injured and have to have months or years off to recover. Staying up on regular maintenance can buy you years of success with a horse. Be proactive!
Also DON’T OWN A BARREL HORSE IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO MAINTAIN IT!
barrel horses literally go out and tear themselves up every run they make. Even though breeding has progressed so much over the last few years to produce horses that are designed to “run barrels” horses in general are not made to do this job. Superior breeding has produced horses that are faster and more athletic, but the faster they run the more strain they put on their bodies. Thankfully VET care has also progressed significantly over the years. We now have so many resources available to help our equine athletes compete comfortably at a high level. It is your responsibility to utilize these resources. It takes a lot of TIME and MONEY to maintain a barrel horse. If you can’t make the commitment don’t take one on.

“Mares aren’t always well liked and for the same reasons strong women aren’t.

Opinionated? Those opinions are not without good cause and maybe you can't figure them out or maybe you just don’t like her opinion of you. Change it and she will always be on your side.

Stubborn? She just won’t let you bulldoze her. Treat her with respect and her resilience will be an asset to you.

Difficult? You just can’t handle her. You don’t have what it takes.

Stick with geldings then, and leave the mare for someone who understands her and appreciates the same qualities society has subtlety taught you not to like.

Here’s to mares, to strong women, and to those who CAN and DO appreciate them!”

You have to be willing to lose in order to win.

I know this mentality is a hard one to grasp―or at least, it was for me.

In the early years of my training career, I was striving for perfection, not progress.

I never wanted to experience failure.

But wasn’t long before I figured out that failure is what allows me to experience success.

Without failure, there is no opportunity to learn.

You have to let yourself make mistakes in order to get better.

You have to let your horses make mistakes in order for them to learn.

Mistakes are lessons that pave the path to greatness.

Without those lessons, we stay in the same place we are today.

Give yourself the opportunity to fail, and remember that by doing so, you are setting yourself up for opportunities to learn, grow, and progress beyond your current circumstances.

Got a nice grass/alfalfa mix back in the pasture! Bout 1200lbs of hay and The ponies are loving it. We will be having a new boarding addition in the barn beginning of October so we’re trying out 2 round bales at a time so every horse can munch as much as they want.
