A good death. That is our responsibility to the animals under our care, if we can possibly give them one. It isn't always possible - they get lost, hit by a car, burned by a fire, swept away in a

Such a valuable viewpoint!!

Tears come with horses! They are familiar whether or not you compete and own 1 horse or 10. Those tears are DUE to our love, but sometimes they just keep coming and become chronic. What do we sacrifice to own horses and how much is too much? Should we be prioritizing our own health and stability mor...

Whiskey is ready to stow away under the Christmas Tree! About 13.2 and around 10 years old He is mostly on the “nice list” he’s happy to waste an hour with you while you braid his mane and tell him how handsome he is! He is very familiar with this whole “riding game” and actually has some nice buttons. He’s happy to WTC and has never offered a spook or a buck. He’s fine around traffic, bridges, tractors, goats and chickens. I believe (but I’m not able to test) that he has driving experience and I think he would be an excellent candidate for a driving home!

The only thing that gets him on the naughty list is his attitude with other horses. 😬 While he likes to be in their general vicinity he isn’t ok with actually making contact with them. I suspect he was a stallion for many years prior to being gelded. He is willing to work in the ring and focus on business but he’d rather have his own space in turnout with no adjoining fence lines. This behavior has improved with a soy free diet and even more with a Depo trial and if someone is willing to put in the work, I suspect it could be solved with time. We are currently rehabbing some damaged feet that are responding well to regular trimming.

Let me be 100% clear-while he would be “intermediate-beginner safe” and would be a great lunge-lesson pony if no other horses are around; I would say if there is any chance that could happen I would be happier seeing him with an intermediate/advanced rider just for the sake of safety.

Is your horse really in front of your leg? Like, really? This concept can be tough to wrap the mind around because it's one of those things in riding that is better felt than explained. Once you feel it - and especially, once you feel a horse that isn't - you'll know it. But think of being in front....

And I’m up! After a few days off to think about her training so far this girl rocked her first time under saddle!! She will be available through Heart and hooves rescue and sanctuary soon!

Miss Annie is totally impressing me with her ridability! None of the rushing/racing that you sometimes get when restarting OTTBs (no wonder she didn’t do well as a racehorse 😜) we are still working on some pushy ground manners but she very much redeems herself under saddle! Get in touch withHeart and hooves rescue and sanctuary if you want a slightly sassy but willing little lady to adventure with!!

Mr. JJ is doing so well!! Second ride under saddle and he’s totally unphased by it all! Also he’s a gentleman and a love bug on the ground. He’s going to make someone a super special partner. Contact Heart and hooves rescue and sanctuary about this guy.

Excited to welcome this little lady back for another month of training. I did a month of basic training on miss Winter before my student Morgan adopted her. She asked me to do another month to help her get Winnie started on her dressage-specific training!
