Frankie came in completely shut down — not naughty, just unheard and overlooked.

The kind that stops trying because no one was listening.

Now? A happy, responsive horse that actually wants to connect.

This is what happens when you listen first. Be their voice🤍

Stories like these are why I will always love to do what I do.

This wonderful first time horse owner wanted nothing but the best for her horse. She was told by other trainers that the horse wasn’t in pain and she just needed an attitude adjustment.

When I first came out, I immediately searched out pain and found plenty. This poor mare was super sore in her hocks, stifles, SI, you name it.

After being injected, proper saddle fit, worked correctly, body work and most importantly being HEARD, this horse has done an entire turn around.

This is an amazing team and I love being able to watch this mare feel amazing in her own skin again and be excited to work for her rider.

These two only have up to go from here.

I’m such an advocate for listening to your horse and ruling out pain or past trauma as reasons for their wrong doings first.

If you’re struggling with sudden behavior changes or something just not being right, I’d love to help.

The difference between disengaged and engaged, mentally and physically.

Frankie came from a traumatic background, was shut down when it came to riding and fought every aid.
After a complete restart, showing him work isn’t something to fear and allowing him to tell me his limits, he is a completely different horse.
In the first picture he’s ridden in a halter as he had severe bit anxiety. He is completely disengaged, his back is hollow, he’s heavy on his forehand, and he was just simply not enjoying the ride.
The second picture shows how now he happily fills the bridle, is nice and round through his body, and all his power is coming from his hind end. And best of all, he’s thoroughly enjoying his ride.

When I first brought Frankie home, he was dangerous to ride and showed no desire to be around people. Now, a year later, he is being prepped for show season and is a big puppy dog.

It’s horses like him that remind me why I gravitate towards the horses other people are ready to give up on. He wasn’t mean, he was scared. He wasn’t aloof, he was nervous of people. He is now the happiest I’ve ever seen him and he’ll never end up in that position again.

Shoot me a message if you’re ready to get your horse as happy to ride as Frankie is now. ❤️
