Another nice choice of colour for halter sets for a client.
These have special knots to attach rope to halter so you can remove easily but no clip to hit horses chins .
If you want lead ropes made with this function just let me know

Today was a great day for a ride. Thanks Tahlia for coming up. Justin rode Rain who was totally awesome. Of course Splash and Ana were great, Jazz was a tad emotional for the last part of the ride but I can’t remember the last time I rode her 🧐

After years of unsoundness, finally we have answers . Rain has Navicula in both front feet. She has had injections into coffin joint and will wear wedges in front rubber composite shoes to correct angle and relieve pressure.
She is like a new horse, happy to burn around the paddock with the others.
This was her first ride back and she was perfect.
She will go back to teaching people how to ride and give confidence.

Hi All,
For quite some time now I have wanted to change the name of my business for several reasons. My business name renewal came up recently So the time has come.

The new name of my business is

“Harmony N’ Horsemanship”

Nothing else has changed.

I’ve changed the name on the fb page but it hasn’t updated as yet.

Second video

No matter what I throw at this little mare, she never ceases to amaze me.
I initially had her Bosal on, but decided to take it off and see how she went ❤️

Sorry for all the talking but I was explaining to his owner what I was doing on the video.
For a very long time I’ve been working with this boy. Due to a couple of reasons he is always on the forehand and sits very heavy in your hands. I’ve tried so many different exercises to help him soften up and hold his own head up, but nothing seemed to work. Didn’t matter what I put on his head or in his mouth, he would just lean and get heavy. Pushing his hinds out only resulted in him rushing more forwards, despite him knowing how to move his hinds lightly standing still.
In the back of my mind I would always hear Steve say “do anything but pull “! But I kept thinking, but HOW!
I decided to stop riding with anything attached to his head and use a string around his neck. The first ride was a huge eye opener 😳 without control of some sort on his head he was completely lost and almost panicked. It showed that he relied solely on his bridle.
The next ride I used a very prickly horse hair mecate around his neck, this gave him clear signal and he really tried. Today was the third ride but with a softer Mecate. Obviously it was very hard to ride one handed with just a rope and video at the same time but it gives you an idea of him really trying.
The aim is to retrain his brain to listen to my body and stop relying on his bridle and shutting his brain off.

For those enquiring about halters and ropes, they are now for sale at Angle Vale Hardware and Fodder. I can still make custom orders if there isn’t the size or colour there that you want.

Would anyone have a paddock for a retired Standy that belongs to a lovely friend of mine. No facilities needed, just a paddock to agist with feeding once a day (she can only get there once a day so would need one feed by property owner) in Lewiston/Two Wells area. Lovely well mannered boy.

Is your horse a bit stiff, sore or feeling a bit short. Have you considered the benefits of booking your equine partner in for a Physiokey treatment?

The Physiokey device emits an electro-magnetic signal, which is almost identical to the human nerve signal. This signal travels along certain types of nerve fibres and meridians, which triggers the release of powerful pain relieving substances into the bloodstream called endorphins.

The Physiokey can pinpoint sore areas on the horses body that may go unnoticed. For example, a horse may show signs of lameness or soreness in the hind end but in fact the problem is in the opposite shoulder, the horse is compensating and it presents in a different area.
The Physiokey not only pinpoints the area but helps the body to identify and start the healing process.

I’ve not only used this device on my horses, but on myself and my family (including my dogs).

Treatments are $70 per session
To book just send a PM

It is with the deepest regret that I am selling my DP Buckeberger saddle. But life isn’t always fair.
This is an allusive S1. These are over $6500 brand new plus you have to wait for months to get one.
Fully adjustable gullet with Allen Key, removable adjustable panels to make sure perfect fit. In as new condition as hardly used (no time to ride my own horse).
Like riding in an armchair and puts you in the correct position.
Always kept covered inside van.
Also comes with Baroque Stirrups.
