Just a few quick snapshots
during storm-prep.🐴

Does not nearly reflect the amount of hours spent today checking, double-checking,
and recounting the list in our heads of
everything we’re doing to keep all of the fur-babies warm & cozy, even if we aren’t!

✅Extra hay down & bagged
✅Heated buckets & waterers indoors
✅Auto waterers outdoors working
✅Heat lamps where necessary
✅Straw bedding for the littles
✅Gallagher’s water
✅Blanket checks
✅Generators working & extra fuel ready
✅Plow truck ready

I’d say we’re as ready for whatever snow is about to head our way!❄️🥶

A common fault when performing shoulder-in is that riders try to drag their horse’s shoulders onto an inside track using only their inside rein.

Instead, ride a 10-meter circle or use a corner to help you establish the required bend and get your aids in position.

Then, half-halt down your outside rein, look down the outside track, and use your inside leg to push your horse off the circle and down the long side, maintaining the shoulder-in positioning.

Think of your inside leg and seat as rhythmically encouraging your horse upwards and into your outside rein.

Ironically, out of all your aids, the inside rein is the one you should be using the least.

We have a more detailed step-by-step guide on how to position your horse for shoulder-in and how to ride it (including a list of all the individual aids) in our latest book. Link in the comments.)
