Kids get it done! Couldn’t have had a better ride on Eddie myself if I tried.

Doesn’t look like much but this was huge for our mustang friend! Luke is the type of horse where trust means the world and until that bond is cemented with his handler he is afraid of everything and ready to bolt even if that means running you over. Ari has been working on ground work everyday with him and although he’s obviously unsure about things still, he will follow her anywhere!

Throwback to one of our despooking training day! It’s important to not only work on despooking your horse but also for you as a rider to know how to go through that process! Don’t just have your trainer do everything! Ask to be involved in the process that way if you ever run into a scary item on your own you will know how to handle it.

“Almost had to use the wall to stop ourselves there!”
We finished our 30 days with Mr. Wick! Here are some of Wick’s results from his month staying with us. This video shows the first and last day that we worked with him. (As well as his mom’s first ride back on him)
Wick was normally ridden in a hackamore, but we placed him in a snaffle in order to try to soften him up in both the face and body. He was very heavy on the reins, as well as hard to bend in the body. Our main goals here were:
1. Head collection
2. Bending (not leaning) in a circle
3. Actually stopping when we ask and not running through the reins.
This handsome boy is such a quick learner. He’ll make a dang good rodeo partner with his mom off in college!

In this video, Anna is showing Wick how to use his body in a different way than he’s used to. Training a horse to collect their head and bend at the ribs is fundamental to getting a horse that’s light in the bit, and light on their leg cues.
Throughout the video, you can see Wick drop his head when asked, and —instead of planking through them, he starts to curve his body around the turns. Anna asks these responses of him with less and less rein and leg cue, and eventually, he will get more tuned to what the rider is asking of him with each movement.

We’re working on giving Wick lore “buttons”!

Your horse isn’t the only one who needs to be in shape! Leg exercises ranging from in the saddle two-point and posting to ba****ck riding are great means for conditioning to make sure not only your horse but also the ride is at the top of their game.

Here’s Anna trail training with a bike! During this exercise, Ed was exposed to bikes riding next to him, behind him, passing him, and leading him throughout the whole 9 mile trail. This method helps horses feel less apprehensive about bikes in general; this way, when bikes pass or follow them in the future, they know they’ll live to see another day 😂.
