Here's an example of how a quick ride can easily turn into a training session.
I decided to do a quick ride on Flynn and he decided he wanted to be by his friends and didn't listen to me. So instead of a quick ride around the pasture, we turned it into a training session.
Work by friends and rest away from them. I repeated this at least 3 times before getting off. It was a hot day and he's been out of work for a while. Better to end on a good note instead of pushing it to far and ending up with a frustrated horse.

Penny!
10 year old grade project mare!
Not broke!!
Not spooky, but a little head shy around her nose.
Never offer to kick, bite, rear ect.
Can be a little hard to catch (way better than most!) But she's a sweetheart as soon as you get up to her
Will let you brush her all over.
I've picked up her feet and picked them out she didn't have any issues with it.

I bought her as a project but unfortunately can't find the time to work with her.

Located in St. Croix Falls, WI

The triplets! Flynn is the only one I can easily tell who is who. He is much bigger and a slightly different color.

Penny and Doc are so hard to tell unless they are looking at me. Doc has some gray on his face from age and having halters left on him from previous owners. Other than that, I couldn't tell you who is who from the pasture!

Have you ever had two horses that looked almost identical?

Little update on the cute red mare Penny! She's adjusting well so far. Still working on getting her used to people, but making progress everyday!

Working with Penny!

Everyday I've been doing small amounts of work getting her used to me touching her face.

Notice, I'm doing this with no restraints. That way she can leave if she feels too uncomfortable.

I did get a halter on her, but she still doesn't want me touching her nose yet. That's okay, we will get there!

Please excuse the language. It was too good not to share. 🤣
But honestly, who can relate?!🙋‍♀️
The winters in Wisconsin can get pretty rough. I'll just enjoy the last bit of fall that I can until the snow comes🧊❄☃️

Sit, Woah... No reins? Whenever I ride, reins are the last step of pressure and the first to be released. I want the horse to be able to work off my seat and legs first, then I'll use my reins if necessary.

Gate sour tip for you.
Rhema isn't necessarily gate sour, but when I rode her, she was definitely drawing a magnet towards it.
So I've been doing some preventative training to help with this.
Another very easy tip to help with this is resting your horse on the opposite end of the arena and working them by the gate.
