Beautiful Teddy! 10 days since he entered our intensive rehab program. He came to us in critical care! Even do I knew deep inside he was going to make it true, he definitely gave us a few very scary episodes. This is the huge improvement he has made in only 10 days! He is filling out his neck, chest, top line and slowly becoming round in his bum. His coat is starting to look less yellow/dull and his spirit is opening up hugely. He is on a special diet specially designed for him with all his special nutrition, has high quality hay available at all times and gets to have late evening and early morning snacks on a long steamed balanced grass with a low stressed soil. He is getting a lot of emotional and physical support multiple times a day. He still has a long way to go. We are EXTREMELY proud of little Teddy and can’t wait to see what else he can show us. YOU’RE A FIGHTER 💥 we love you deeply💚💙

WE DID IT! On June 7th at 12:30pm, the door opened to a new beginning for 3 magnificent souls. The lovely paint mare went straight to a wonderful friend of ours. The two boys who are in critical care came right to us. I got a bit nervous about the bay one who didn’t eat well for the first two days and one couldn’t get up.

What a true blessing it has been! The terrified little eyes they had quickly changed as they realized we are here to help. They bay one has the sweetest puppy dog personality. He loves kisses so much! The Rocky Mountain colour pony was extremely shy but after two sessions quickly became our best friend. They loveeee to be brushed and do some meditation to find some relaxation! They find so much strength in each other!

Due to a car accident, no car, and some bad injuries, we had to move them yesterday so I could keep providing all the care and love they need multiple times a day. Unfortunately just feeding them would not get them true. It was incredible to see how much they trusted me and knew I was going to take care of them. Who doesn’t like a fan with a fresh bedded stall at night to lay down and have sweet dreams with a whole bale of hay to have breakfast in bed!? They are mentally still very exhausted and we are ensuring they receive all the care they possibly can to keep fighting. A managed early morning and late evening grass snack is their favourite! We are extremely pleased with the huge progress they have already made mentally, physically, and are slowly gaining a touch of weight with all the special adapted nutrition for each of them.

On a cloudy day we stand tied to a post wondering what we have done... terrified of all yelling people with hurting hands and whips, a starving tummy, and a broken soul. Who will ever see us? Will we ever see green grass again where we can run free? Will we ever be understood, cared for, and loved? Who are we? Why are we here? 💔

Me and my two friends lost our proudness, and strength 10 days ago. I wondered who has the evil hands to castrate us without sedation. You read it well, WITHOUT sedation! We had lost our battle to fight when a bunch of people strapped us down and overpowered us. The enormous amount of pain doesn’t stop as the infection continues and we don’t receive anything for our pain. I feel said, broken, and lost. I wish I could ask my friends how I could feel better but unfortunately I got told I am not worth anymore and now live alone. What would happen to my three other friends if I can’t protect them? I am extremely hungry and have barely any strength left. Yet, one day later, someone decided to traumatize me even more tie me up yet again tossed a painful saddle on me and a piece of metal in my mouth. I had no idea what would happen next. I couldn’t find any strength to cary the weight that jumped on my tiny spine. I didn’t understand the job very well to walk forward and be pulled at in different direction. I did my best to try so I could avoid having another painful hand on me again. It seemed like forever... I didn’t know what I did wrong to then be left all night tied up with no food. I looked at the green grass on the other side and tried to keep telling myself one day I hope to have a taste of it, cuddle and run with my friends again, find my spirit back, and be understood.

As the story of three little studs and one mare continues... help us safe them! 🙏 see last picture for information (text to long) we need YOUR help!

Let kids explore, be wild, and free. Always make sure they know you are there for them. These are two of the kids I do some private work with. Duck my pony fell in HUGE love with the 3 years old last week. He knew exactly how to fill his soul. The 5 years older loved Moonlight and Spirit. It is mind-blowing how creativity can give kids forever relationships, memories, and learning. Connecting to nature is the most magical thing. Which 3 years old has a heart of gold and decides that his pony deserves 1million dandelions. Tiny tupperwear from lunch and bike helmet became to small so a huge water bucket was given (forgot picture). The gift the horses gave to them to lay down and feel so safe and loved was incredible!

Morning pony protest. I arrived this morning and everyone was standing up. I go grab the halters to get them ready for school, half the herd went back to bed. Didn’t take long before everyone joined. I mean they did get the morning off and win me over 🤣 sometimes work involves being in each other’s space and enjoy the moment of relaxation and connections. Anyone wondering goose is still in the herd as well. She was enjoying having the bale to herself.

Never too early for a first outdoor swim! Goose her favourite thing has always been water and swimming 😃 Impressed how comfortable she feels with her surroundings and me to go down in water in a ditch right beside a busy highway 👏 her wild instincts are precious - love this golden pony 🤩summer is just around the corner 🌞

She s a natural and knows exactly what to do to help little once grow. 🥰 little farm hand wished to feed all the ponies herself 😝💪

What Sunday meal prep looks like for some horses 💙🧡❤️💚

We are starting our herbal liver/kidney detox on all our horses for the next 14days. The liver is one of the most important organs in a horse body. Taking care of it will have great long term outcomes. We always get blown away by the amazing results every year! Many horses are in need of a deep detox and tissue cleaning. We recommend doing it twice a year, in the fall and spring. These severe weather changes made it very hard on the horses bodies in the past few weeks. Take care of your loved once 🥰 for the secret recipe please feel free to contact us directly.

Spring is just around the corner! Who else is getting excited to have daylight get longer and be able to play more in the fresh air 🌞

We have been quite for a few months as some of our horses have been dealing with quite some severe issues that has led me to fully put my focus on them and myself.

Chester was diagnosed with the sidewinder disease which led to a few days in intense care at the vet. Luckily his treatment is fully finished and he is now stable until the summer.

Kalila who was diagnosed with cancer and has been needing a bunch of vet visits. Her treatment of chemotherapy will still continue for a while but as usual this superstar gets true anything!

Spirit who has been dealing with some severe nervous system issues as well as some other inner issues related to his spring incident. His appointments and treatment plan will keep going for a few more months as well. I m extremely proud of him for everything! He has proven Duck (his son) how to fight true anything. Together their healing journey continues.

As a team we keep battling because EVERY SOUL MATTERS always and forever will they have my ENTIRE heart ❤️💚🧡💙💛💜

As we continue to take care of everything with our entire hearts, we are slowly putting together our kids summer programs! Stay tuned for the FUN 🌈

Early morning eating some vitamins and minerals 🤩

I offer a loose balanced mineral to all our ponies on a day to day basis aside from their dinners which contains other nutrients. It will unusually be put in about 3 piles around to increase movement, curiousity, instincts, and fun. With 4 in our current herd, Goose and Moonlight always team up and Duck and Spirit share. Pile 3 gets left for a few minutes until they switch - it shows them that there will always be more so it doesn’t create stress.

Who can guess why we use loose minerals vs a block for our ponies?

Tip of the day: please ensure to feed a balanced supplement to your horse. Unfortunately lots of mineral/vitamin mixes are very unbalanced. Feel free to reach out at anytime for nutrition support for your loved once - I m certified in Advanced equine nutrition and would love to help you out find a balanced diet to keep everyone healthy 😃

Can anyone believe that Gilly has failed 3 foster homes last winter because she was not good with cats!? She got labeled by everyone as a “bad dog”. It s very interesting how people tend to label someone in a blink of an eye but in the reality they are the once responsible! Owning a dog is like having a child in many ways. First few months they wake you up, they need play, exercise, socialization, good nutrition, and most importantly a whole lot of education!! We aren’t born learning how to write of read so why do we expect others to be able to do things without having a chance to learn? Gilly is by far the smartest, most gentle, and kindest dog you can ever meet. Why? well this is mainly because she is a super star who has been allowed to be as expressive as she wanted. From day one Gilly received profound training and on a day to day basis she keep learning. I m extremely proud of her for her hard work. She is starting to be part of our therapy programs and will be starting her certifications this spring to become a certified therapy dog 💙 she s my hero that follows my path everywhere I go. Ps she has never received a treat nor has she ever been on a leash you for training - love and connection 💚🥰 she s 1 year and 3 months

Booked for the 2024 season! 🙀

We unexpectedly received a number of requests for horse training. While I have been preferring to focus my business in other things, I felt like their was such a need so decided to set up another year of horse power. With the overwhelming number of request I decided to add another trainer on board that will be helping me part time so we can help more horses and ponies!

I mainly focus on creating kids safe safe ponies. With the exception of a few horses who needed the extra hand. 9 souls will find their path of strengths starting in May 2024!

If you wish to be on our cancelation list, please send us a message directly. 🙂 many cool video s available on our website! www.theheartofhorsemanship.net

« I think what I like about working with horses with troubles is that I really have the opportunity to make a difference and help someone. They need someone who doesn't matter if things go wrong. They need to be allowed to check-in at all times and have someone who understands them. I never mind if something goes wrong because that's creating an opportunity for me to be able to help them with something again. And that's an opportunity to get out stronger. Overcoming the wrong things together will prove to the horse that I'm valuable to them. And in order for them to believe in me, I need to make the first move and truly believe in them from the very beginning. I have a 1000 believe in each and every single horse. No matter what they have gone true in the past. I believe that they are all capable of loving, learning, and making dreams come true. It's a bit unknown how much they need the feeling of someone that believes in them. We all need someone that believes in us.

Many people become judgemental toward their horses. Ones a horse has shown some negative behavior, that's all people tend to see. He's a biter so he'll bite. It becomes predeterminant and they expect them to be like that. As if a horse is nothing more then that. But if you give them that feeling of failure even before something happened how can they ever become who they truly are? They need someone who believes in the good of them to be able to get that out. So for me, that's always the start of the training. From the very beginning, I always like to find something they can easily succeed in because then they get a taste of how different things can be. I never focus on changing the wrong behavior. I only focus the way they look at life. So when things get difficult they can look for an answer. I want them to get excited about challenges but that's only possible if they're not afraid to make mistakes. I see so many different horses and I always like to be that person that believes in the good of them.

The thing that makes it difficult for people to understand about horses is that it all depends. There is never a one-way solution. It always depends on the intention and the thought the horse has about something. And since that's a rode that's much more difficult to follow, people easily blame their horse. I always strive to keep searching for better ways because I know there will be and I know I will be really thrilled if I find them. The horses are my biggest inspiration. They give me ideas, they make sure I keep searching for more,... I always like to show them the person I want to be. A person who is real toward them and wanting to help. »

Play exists when one is in Parasympathetic Nervous System. Learning turns on in PSNS. Amazing how many fewer reps are needed to create a new synapse if one is fully in PSNS!
THE POWER OF PLAY 💥

Did you know your sympathetic nervous system carries signals that put your body's systems on alert, your parasympathetic carries signals that relax those systems.

So what is the true difference between PSNS and SNS

Parasympathetic Autonomic Nervous System: It is located in between the spinal cord and the medulla. It primarily stimulates the body’s “rest and digest” and “feed and breed” responses.

Sympathetic Autonomic Nervous System: It is the part of the autonomic nervous system located near the thoracic and lumbar regions in the spinal cord. Its primary function is to stimulate the body’s fight-or-flight response. It does this by regulating the heart rate, rate of respiration, pupillary response and more.

Offering play time for both children and adults on a day to day basis has many many benefits!

Life sometimes gets to those hard decisions. Those that brake your heart but deep inside you know it s best for them. I m unfortunately not able to give everyone (8ponies) long term the attention and love they need. All my ponies love to work and I want them to be able to fill their cups.
Our lovely Moonlight is up for adoption. 🌸 She is kept private as she would get scooped up in no time public which is not my goal. I d love to stay connected. This lovely pony will be deciding who her family will be. I will be here to guide her. Moonlight is just under or at 12hh, has two blue eyes, is a paint bay with a blaze and 4 white sock. Don t forget her exceptional main and tail colour for the finishing touch. She is 3 coming 4 years old. Moonlight is my fighter a pony i battled for with my whole heart as I knew saving her from the slaughter truck was a must. She was unhandled at that time and got quite mishandled when she got pulled off which led to some trauma especially lots of sensitivity around her head. Moonlight has been wirh me for 1.5year and this little superstar has come such a long way! I was hoping to keep her for my kids program but she would do best with her own person instead of different people. I always give them the choice and if this isn’t what she want, she ll receive better.

- first one to come up to the gate (if she can beat her friend at it lol)
- very easy to halter
- will tie for hours and loves to be loved on and groomed
- goes no problem in inside buildings and arena. (Does tend to have a little anxiety at first if alone but does super after a few minutes)
- super easy to trim and will lift up all 4 feet no problem, healthy feet
- super respective and responsive on the ground with body language
- traffic trained
- loves to explore the trails!
- trailers like a champ
- does well with obstacles
- you can run around, over, under,... she ll stand loose and is very safe
- carries any tack (no bits)
- goes at a walk while being ridden ba****ck
- has been around kids with and without super powers (special needs) very patience and kind
Does lovely in a mixed herd and will be bottom to mid peck. Anyone smaller than her she may tell them she s the boss first lol. Anyone bigger she s friends with right on the spot. Needs to be kept off grass during spring and summer like all ponies should for sugar contend.

Her less stronger point
- Moonlight due to her previous abuse does react to any adult with hight hight energy. She will simply walk away. That being said, you bring her any child and she ll take care of them! Any of my friends (adults and kids) is able to do anything with her I do. This discomfort presented to her at a barn I was at only (for training) a month ago. Behaviour some of my friends can’t believe as they can jump around her for hours she ll stand at liberty. She loves to be snuggled with big hugs!
- She is very sensitive with a vet. Has had two practice visits that both ended on a good note (nothing got done just introducing).
- she has a little bit of the topical welsh pony attitude. Has always been handled properly. therefore she is always very respectful and kind about everything.

I would love to finish up her training under saddle this spring before she goes. (On a brake at the moment due to our lovely cold MB weather) She is posted already at the moment as I want to have time for her to find her family and not be in a rush as well as work with the family and her together prior to a move. Some kids will have the jackpot of a golden pony! Kids pony only to small for adults. Oh and, she LOVES to swim!

No video s available I don t spend time on that sorry. This allows me to work with serious people only hands on to show and connect everything in reality. Don t come waist my time if you can’t give her a 5 ⭐️ home. I take my rescues rehoming very seriously as I put in my whole heart for these souls. She means a lot to me! I know giving her her person or family will allow her to shine even more. I have put in a LOT and will for as long as needed be!Location MB

Moonlight has taken us to the next level! 🎉

This lovely pony came to me extremelyyy traumatized and frightened of people. Dumped into the slaughtertruck on her way to the kill pen. Luckily I was able to have a zoom call with a local AB rescue who was able to take her out of the truck as I knew she was the one. Very hard decision when I saw over 50 ponies needing help. She unfortunately got quite mishandled and abused when pulled off but that didn’t last long. She s one that taught me to work without any tools with unhandled horses. As she slowly became comfortable with me, her face was still a big no for many months. I ve done a lot of work to help her feel at piece. Because she has some lovely pony attitude I decided so not force anything with her. Argument don’t obtain us anything relationship/willing work makes us shine. We went on her pace and as we went along with some training, some magic happened today... Anyone who has met moonlight a year ago, will most likely be as impresses as I am.

When I finished 3 other ponies trainings sessions I joined them in the herd for some time. It is good to connect and observe, we are able to learn a lot for it! As I walked up to Moonlight, I knew by the way she looked at me that this time she was going to be taking care of me. Goofing around and yes I hopped on for the very first time. This was done without tools in a big open space which allowed her to be as expressive as she wanted. Look at her eyes she was so relaxed and knew exactly how to take care of me!

The feeling was a massive reword after all the relationship work we ve done. Moonlight is still extremely sensitive and does not allow many people in her space yet. It is my job to protect her and keep all expenses positive for her. What a beautiful moment for our relationship ♥️ Of course I had to end wirh laying on her and giving her a big hug - she definitely didn’t complain to receive that extra love up there.

I always wonder « if horses where given a choice, would they really let us ride? » moonlight will definitely enjoy her job as we continue our training.

I never ride a horse without helmet and vest. Even my highly trained horses I always protect myself. This was a moment I needed to accept and a big amount of trust was given in the moment we where safe.

Beautiful Spirit has been behind scenes for the past few months. As I continued his riding training, we fell into a hole. I used every technique I could possibly think of but yet our work didn’t make any progress perhaps we even went backwards. As a trainer myself, I recognize I m not perfect and perhaps I did something wrong. Therefore I collaborated with an incredible trainer to see if he could help us. Off we went for a trailer ride. A month flew by and Spirit didn’t get any better in the work in fact he became worse drastically. Anyone who knows Spirit knows he ADORES people and loves to please and try hard! He is green “broke” under saddle and extremelyyy well desensitized! Our boy came to a point where putting a simple hand on him made him jump up. Some severe hypersensitivity that I knew is definitely not training or behaviour related. I decided to get a first vet out who did a deep sheet cleaning and a Lyme test. While we waited for the result we had an emergency call for him that led to more ASAP testing. We then collaborated with a more specialized vet for our third vet visit in one week. Poor buddy had an extremely hight fever sitting at 39.7, was freezing and shaking all the way down to his hooves on a sunny +2degree day (he s super fluffy) he stayed in a 450g and was still severely shaking along with other symptoms. We got our wonderful massage therapist out who did a full body session and was able to help us out a lot. We collaborated with a specialized Equine Naturopath in Alberta from the Canadian Equine Therapy Institute who was extremely kind to offer her services/knowledge in helping us.

Spirit got diagnosed with anaplasmosis lyme disease, ulcers, and a recovery on his kidney needs to be done. He s most likely a bit in a magnesium deficiency as well as Canada is very lowww in it nor both humans and animal!

We are trying a special treatment plan with the wonderful Naturopath! Unfortunately due to his body immune being lower since the incident he has had in the spring, he is more prone to getting sick. We are therefore needing to be extremely careful to not overwhelm his system and this made me want to try a full natural treatment prior to very strong chemical medicine. Once the body has had a big incident to organs and neurologically, it takes a long time to heal. Even do a horse may seem find on the outside, the inside may still look different and spirit is definitely a shy one to show pain. What a strong man that keeps trying hard for me every day.

He is now back with his herd and son. We offered him a biggg field with a barn in a relaxed environment. We are going to be fighting this with him and offer him all he needs to heal and feel better. I LOVE you my big fighter - you’re my golden star 🌟

Rest in piece « Lucky » 🌸

Rescuing animals never gives you a brake. Grieving never ends 😭 We always have to wake up every day and be strong for those in need no matter what. I never feel like I m doing enough and feel very small in this world. This beautiful girl came across my path in need last summer. Knowing that she didn’t have to live on the streets anymore and got to know and feel love, have food and water available every day, have a warm bed every night, and a place to call home is what I need to remember made a big difference to her. She found herself the best friend! Bucky a true gentleman that took extraordinarily care of her. She was able to make memories during her play, dinners, and was always kept safe by her best friend side by side. True memories that will make her dream and rest in piece. Run free my beautiful girl, I m extremely proud of you and thank you for the light you brought into the world. You will always be remembered and have a special place in my heart 💖 I’m sorry I couldn’t do better and protect you more. You are a fighter and this one was to much. As you layed on my chest I felt your last heartbeat at 10:36pm October 18, 2023 💕

Our last rescue pony for the year is waiting for us!

We got contacted about a 3-4years old gray welsh pony. He has a beautiful blaze and 3 white socks. His fella is unhandled and still intact. This poor boy has been to the auction 3 times over the past year and a half. HOW IS HE STILL UNWANTED 💔 Only imagine the trauma a young innocent baby has had to go true! We will be paying meet price for him and offering him a warm spot where he can feel safe, have food and water at all times, and receive the training needed to make him bloom.

If you are interested in helping us safe this beauty, we are looking for a sponsor so we can get him gelded ASAP! We are hoping to pick him up next week and would appreciate any donations towards our gas cost as we will be on a 7h road trip. Every dollar helps 💝

About me

I’m Floriane Vermeire and I was born with horses in my blood. At the age of 4, I was already working with them! One day, I found the method of Natural Horsemanship, however because I was so young; nobody wanted to teach me. So I decided to start by myself! I have spent years growing my knowledge through many lessons, clinics and certifications. When I was 16, I decided to share my knowledge and experience with others to teach them about the beauty of learning how to communicate and connect with horses from a horse perspective. I have worked in many ranches with kids and teens with a variety of needs including autism, anxiety and ADHD. I have a deep love and passion for this work. In September 2017, I moved from Belgium to Canada. I was able to save a wild horse from the auction to give this sentient being another chance. She is one of my many horses in training; where I help caterpillars turn into wonderful butterflies. I am extremely excited to have the opportunity to work with your child and help dreams come true, just as they have for me!
