21.01.2022 We never stop learning no matter what aspect of riding and horsemanship we are involved in. The most important thing I have learnt in recent years is to gain the horses TRUST and CONFIDENCE. Anger plays no part in training these beautiful animals and will hinder being able to get the best from the horse anyway. Like anything it's easy to say and at times can be hard to do but we must throw anger out the window. You can still be highly determined yet meak. Meakness is not wea...kness. Kindness is the best way. Cruelty is the worst way and there are many variations in between the two. Sometimes lack of knowledge can cause someone to be too harsh so try to get a good understanding of how a horse actually thinks about things and you will notice the difference and not repeat the same mistakes. Horses are great to be around and they attract a lot of nice people who are usually pretty dedicated to the care and welfare of their animals. See more

05.01.2022 Meet Django, a 5 year old Mustang with a severe bolting issue. Django’s former owner was left feeling hopeless about Django’s ability to ever become a safe ridi...ng horse; Many trainers had told her it would be impossible. She contacted Maddy as a last resort. In this case study, Maddy works through all Django's problems at liberty without ropes to begin with. Here she teaches him basic body communication and takes him through a host of trust building exercises before riding him tackless. Later, she introduces him back into tack and completes a successful rehabilitation. Here are just a few of the lessons covered with Django: Learning to read thresholds and see signs of slight fear before an explosion occurs Developing 2 way communication for the horse to express fear in a healthy way Allowing the horse to renegotiate their flight instinct versus trying to contain it The power of preparation, especially by using a teacher horse For a free sneak peak of the Django Case Study, click https://www.mustangmaddy.com/resources/

04.01.2022 I came across an interesting article called: What happened to dressage _ The Horses Hoof by Yvonne WELZ. It's well worth a read and gives you an explanation as to why we see so many overbent horses. We we hear and read about the poll being the highest point in the competing dressage horse. I have been puzzled about what I see too and searched for an answer and I think this article explains very well what has caused this to occur. It is not a criticism but a statement of observations and enquiries. Have a look I think you will enjoy the article.
