Tooth fairy
Well…I can’t say I’ve had this happen before. 🤣 Thanks for the exchange there, bud. 🦷 I wish the other littles would make it this easy to find their baby caps.
This video is a couple short clips of Kyrie working on some of the things she learned in her time here. She was sure a difficult filly at the beginning of her journey, but was so worth the effort it took to get her to this point. Just goes to show that even the aggressive and standoffish ones can become willing partners if you are patient enough to get them there.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
I hope everybody out there is having a good Valentine’s Day! Don’t forget to give your ponies some kisses today too! 😘
Yesterday we woke up to a a very surprising winter wonderland. 🥶 the horses and ducks seemed to throughly enjoy it. Me and the chickens not so much. 😂 Brightside it’s a nice break from our normal Oregon winter, and I got this cute video of Wicca and Kizmyth.
I’m torn between wanting it to melt off so we can leave the house again annnnnnd kinda enjoying a day inside with cocoa. Anyone else in our part of the PNW that got a surprise snow day yesterday?
A recent video for a change. 😂 here we have kyrie working on some more intermediate Liberty cues. She’s been an interesting horse to work with to say the least. Highly intelligent but very easily frustrated. And when she gets frustrated she can still get a lil spicy, but nothing that is difficult to manage at this point.
This exercise was taught to help her work through her pushy nature and attitude when she gets frustrated. The better she gets at puzzle solving the less often she will get overwhelmed and upset. This has helped her to both work through things mentally and soften her individual body parts to cues from an even greater distance.
This filly has been a fun challenge to work with. And as feisty as she used to be I love the young mare she’s turning into and can’t wait to see where life takes her.
Tictok ban backup Koda and sidepass
The impending TicTok ban has forced me to download my videos from their platform to save them. As a backup I’m going to repost some of my favorites here so they’re not lost when/if Tictok goes dark. Here is an old favorite of mine, sidepassing with Koda over some barrels and mounting blocks. I can’t wait to have more time again to dedicate to trick training. I miss this. 💔
Kizmyth being cute
Another now older video from this past summer. I can’t believe how much Kiz has grown since just this summer. ❤️ she is just the sweetest baby.
Kelpie trailer loading part 2
You know you’re far behind on your editing projects when you find videos of a horse that went home over a year ago. 🫠 I can’t believe I’m THIS behind. So sorry to Kelpies owner, there is this and a few more I need to go through that I found abandoned in the sad and overloaded archives on my phone. Here we have Kelpie learning to load and unload calmly and to never rush off or on the trailer.
So sad to see this guy go
Of all the cleanup projects we’ve had out here this was one we weren’t expecting. So so sad to see this giant tree die despite our efforts to save it. Trying to see the silver lining to losing this giant but it’s hard. 💔
Kyrie Liberty
I hope everyone out there is having a great Halloween today! 👻🦇🎃 we unfortunately rained too hard last night and earlier today to do anything fun with the horses like I’d hoped. Looks like we’ll be waiting till next year for the return of the squid. 🦑 but at least we stopped pouring long enough to get some videos with kyrie before it started dumping again.
Cheese and quackers
Not our typical horse updates but these sweet babies are too adorable not to share. Cheese and Quackers welcome to the farm! 😍
It’s not about making them perfect today, it’s about helping them to do better tomorrow.
