✹ Pre and Post Ride Care ✹

Training is important, but I’ve learned that what you do before and after the ride plays an equal role in keeping a horse sound, happy, and ready for tomorrow.

My routine often includes:
‱ 🧊 Ice boots to protect joints and reduce heat after work
‱ đŸȘź Brushing down with coat oils, which keeps the coat healthy and gives me a moment to connect with my horse
‱ 💧 Electrolytes to replace what’s lost through sweat
‱ đŸ€Č Stretching and simple massage at home to keep muscles loose and comfortable
‱ 🌿 Mud poultice to help legs recover from the workload

These are small things, but they add up. They make a big difference to a horse’s wellbeing and longevity. For me, caring for them off the saddle is every bit as important as the training we do in it.

We also have a team of experienced industry experts that we can rely on which are just as important! đŸŽđŸ«¶đŸ»

🐮💛 We love seeing our “holiday horses” back in the paddocks 💛🐮

Some horses vacay at Hillview Stables for a break while their owners travel. Others stay for tune-up training or competition prep. 🏆

The best part? Many of them return again and again. đŸ©·

We take pride in remembering every quirk, routine, and favourite scratch spot - so they settle in like they never left. đŸ«¶đŸ»

Your trust in bringing them back means everything to us. And when you tell friends about your horse’s happy holiday here, it helps us welcome even more horses into our Hillview family.

📌 Got a trip planned? Let your horse enjoy their own break with us — where returning guests are always greeted like old friends.

Behind every smooth running agistment property is someone juggling an endless list of responsibilities , often 24/7, 365 days a year.

It’s not just turning horses out, filling hay nets, or picking paddocks.
It’s not just answering messages, managing enquiries, or keeping the arena perfect.

It’s running a sanctuary. Not just for the horses but often for their owners too. And it’s done with little rest, sometimes little thanks, and a financial and physical load most people will never see.

People see happy, well-fed horses in the paddocks.
They don’t see the 5am starts followed by late-night client messages.
They don’t see the knot in your stomach when the hay bill lands, or the quiet stress of another cost increase that can’t be absorbed forever.
They don’t see you mucking out alone on Christmas morning, or pacing the paddock with a torch at 2am checking a colicky horse.

They don’t see the guilt of running a business while caring for animals like family, trying to keep it affordable for their owners.
They don’t see the heartbreak of telling someone it’s time to move their horse on, or worse, breaking the news that their horse didn’t make it through the night.
They don’t see the love in every feed prepared, every rug change, every “just popping out to check them again” when you should be sleeping.

And behind all that? Navigating insurance, safety standards, welfare scrutiny, compliance, staffing, and ever-rising costs.

Because running an agistment property isn’t just a job. It’s a life. It’s responsibility, love, pressure, and passion rolled into a role that never truly ends.

Yes, there’s an agistment fee, but it could never reflect the true cost: financially, physically, mentally, or emotionally. Sick days don’t exist. Holidays are rare. And yet, we keep showing up for the horses, for the owners, for the love of it all.

So if your agistment owner says prices need to go up, take a moment to think about why. It’s almost never about profit , it’s about survival, sustainability, and keeping the standard of care your horse deserves.

And to every other agistment owner and manager out there, you’re not alone. You are seen, you are valued, and what you do matters more than you know. đŸŽâ€ïž

Not every horse is going to tick every box on paper.

Some come with quirks.
A bit of stiffness here, a splash of asymmetry there.
Maybe they toe in, or carry an old scar from a paddock mishap.
Maybe they’re not the prettiest mover, or they take a while to trust.

And that’s where some people walk away — chasing this idea of “perfect.”

But here’s the truth: connection is real. Partnership is real.
And when you find it, it’ll outshine the straightest legs, the fanciest trot, or the flashiest pedigree.

The best horses I’ve ridden haven’t been the most textbook.
They’ve been the ones that looked at me and said, “I’ll try, if you will.”
The ones that showed up every day with heart.

So whether you’re buying, breeding, or just admiring from the sidelines —
don’t overlook the horse that makes you feel something.
Perfect doesn’t build greatness. Connection does.

đŸŒ± Young horses – the biggest lessons come with the smallest amount of training on board.

They test your patience.
They make you question everything you thought you knew.
They teach you to slow down
 and speed up
 and slow down again.
They don’t care if you’ve had a bad day – they’ll give you a fresh one.

But when it clicks? When they start to try? There’s nothing more rewarding.

Here’s to the baby horses who are busy becoming future legends – one step, one spook, one tiny win at a time.

Horsemanship isn’t just training—it’s a conversation. 🐮

At Hillview Stables, we believe that true training begins when the horse feels heard.

It’s not about forcing a frame or chasing a result—it’s about building trust, timing, and feel. That’s the difference between control and connection.

Anyone can teach a horse to move its feet. But can you teach one to want to be with you? To offer softness without pressure? To stay focused in chaos? That’s the horsemanship we live and breathe.

Some horses need patience. Others need boundaries. Most just need a rider willing to listen more than they speak.

Every horse is different. The art is in adapting—not dominating.
Sometimes the wins with your horse aren’t about the ribbons but the small moments in between.

Toowoomba Royal 2025

Only the 3rd Show away from home and what a show you had to take on little Ollie.

Wind and rain, a huge atmosphere, fireworks and all aside you handled it pretty well!

It’s the little things we take for granted when they’re older but I’m so incredibly proud of you. You handled being on your own in the stables when your buddy was gone, slept and ate and drank. Now we just need some mileage!

Lovely, positive feedback and comments from people 💞

Wundurra Top Secret

Aka Joshie

What a wet cold and muddy experience that was Toowoomba Royal!

I am so incredibly proud, grateful and humbled by my experience this year.

Although it was miserable weather, everyone’s attitude that was competing, judging and volunteering seemed to be in high spirits and all we could do was laugh and run with it. Met some really great people this week that made it so enjoyable.

Josh what can I say you are my mate and you certainly looked after me with the mud and slippery grounds. I know you weren’t a fan of the rain but you certainly held it together where it counted and I’m so proud of you đŸ„č
