Praise Your Horse
Monday, November 23rd, 2009
So many times we are riding and trying to accomplish something and totally forget that the horse needs a pat on the neck once and awhile. If the horse acts sour, it’s probably for a good reason. Reward for the small stuff if you are having a problem with the big stuff. Your horse is dropping a shoulder? OK, ask him to stop, and if he stops on a dime, reward time!

Why I Like a Horse To Keep His Head Down
Monday, October 5th, 2009
In the show ring, there are fads, I don’t really care about fads, I like what works best for me personally. The fad can be the horse keeps his head so low he can roll peanuts with his nose, or the head set could be just above the withers. I prefer a horse to keep his head just below the withers. All caveat’s aside, I like the way it looks. I don’t like to look at a horse who’s head is in the air, his gut hangs out, and his back is swayed.

A New Addition To Our Equine Herd
Tuesday, July 7th, 2009
Yesterday Fredi and I went to pick up our new 12 year old horse Redford. He is a beautiful Appendix Quarter Horse. I guess there was some miscommunication on my part because his owners were not home. Hopefully I get it straightened out and we bring him home by Wednesday. Redford has been a bit of a pasture ornament for the last four years so he is desperately in need of training. But, the lovely people who have had him are just wonderful animal lovers and he has been taken care of exceptionally well. I do like to retrain horse’s who have been sitting in a pasture and give them a job. His personality is very sweet, and he seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
