24.01.2022 Such an important principle to start your horse with.
22.01.2022 Body care for horses. Jethro has long standing stomach issues that cause him discomfort and haven't allowed us to progress with his ridden work, so have pulled out the equissage to see if that will help.
19.01.2022 Definitely making progress with Darcy and float loading. We are almost ready for our next step of moving the float with him in it. My phone stopped just before his last loading, which saw him come on, move forward to allow the bar to close. Then stay forward while the other bar was closed and the door fully lifted. Then repeat in reverse and he still held his balance until asked to come off. We finished there. Looking like we may yet make it home on Saturday (next session).
18.01.2022 Video from the end of our training session with Darcy today. We had the added training benefit of a tree being cut down next door. He earlier had his first real attempt to go off with the bar closed. He scared himself pretty well so we took the time we needed to with a lot of waiting till he got himself under control mentally.... I needed to make sure he was able to stand without moving back onto the bar when I went to open it. All this concentration was quite exhausting for him so we didn't attempt to add closing the back door today.
15.01.2022 Have you ever wondered about why your horse licks and chews. From this research it's basically a way to moisten the mouth after something that caused tension which would stop the saliva glands from producing.
14.01.2022 Brilliant advice. If you are feeling anxious, stop and back up to doing something that will bring your anxiety down. Repeat as many times as you need to until both you and your horse are relaxed.
13.01.2022 Because it's something that we all experience from time to time.
09.01.2022 Such an important distinction. An easy trap to fall into when we want to be "kind" to our horses is to start becoming a nag. It is important to notice when they start to ignore our small cue, and fix the behaviour while it is still small.
09.01.2022 If your horses worm eggs get eaten and spread before they get chance to hatch, is that a good thing?
09.01.2022 Important to read the full story as what's appropriate at one level of training may not be appropriate at another. Always important to listen to the feedback.
07.01.2022 Great way to think about helping your horse.
06.01.2022 Worth a read. Could be that your horses hoof shape has more to do with their overall well-being than just the hoof comfort.
04.01.2022 At last, Dressage tests starting with the foundations of dressage, the Walk. https://youtu.be/TaL3se4afCg
02.01.2022 Such an important thing to keep in mind when with our horses. Take notice of what's going on.
02.01.2022 Moved our horses back to the big paddock today. Was so busy concentrating on getting them there that I forgot to do any video of the actual move. They have been off this paddock for around 2 months now to allow all the worms to hatch and die from their manure.
01.01.2022 Finally got our paddock drag operational today. Using tyres with a wire rope cable to hold them together so I don't have to be so careful around the trees (the tyres will pull round) or watch so much for small ground level stumps or roots (they should bounce over). Didn't want it too heavy for the quad so it's 16" small truck tyres and just the 3 of them. First run I'm pretty happy with.
