Are you Ready for a Responsive Horse?
2/2/2023
Horses with all the buttons are fancy and look easy to ride, however, that isn't the case, it takes a much more advance, balanced rider to know how to properly use all those buttons.
The same with green horses, one can easily create more problems if they lack experience.

Woke Horsemanship
1/26/2023
What is woke horsemanship? By definition, it is someone who is more culturally sensitive. This is now being applied to horsemanship. So essentially it is someone who is more sensitive to the horse's emotions and worries about its threshold, not pushing them to an uncomfortable state.
What are my thoughts? Better have a listen!

Sour Horses: Once Great
6/8/2022
When we think of a "sour" horse we think of ear pinning, biting at the girth, lack of cooperation, etc. But what some of us may not know is that most sour horses were once great horses, and in most cases, a human caused the horse to become sour.
When we treat horses all the same and don't understand them it can be easier to turn a good horse into a sour horse.
Listen to today's episode to hear what I mean,

There are hundreds of different ways people like to start horses and all of them have parts that work and parts that don't.

Healthy Boundaries
5/5/2022
How do you establish healthy boundaries with your horse?
Like with other humans, it is important to know what our boundaries are, how we can properly enforce them, and how to stay consistent in what we expect from others.
Well, with horses it's the same. To one person, a boundary could be they don't want to be rubbed on by their horse, but for someone else, they may not mind.
It's especially important to establish your boundaries early to ensure you and your horse will be on the same page throughout your training.
The same goes for your horse's boundaries, believe it or not, they can also set boundaries. What we have to learn is whether their behaviour is genuine in that they really don't like something or is it that they are just being stubborn or testing us.
Find out how I had to set boundaries with my two-year-old and find out how you can set some of your own.
