That’s Monty delivered home to very happy owner, he’s been with us for 6/7 weeks! Had to take Samson to get us back home he wasn’t very happy about being brought in from the field🐴 🐴

Ground work, ground work and more ground work makes a very good first time on the road in the cart!!
Incredibly happy with this pony, he’s sharp as they come but will make a very nice driving pony🐴🤩

Make Them Carry Their Saddle

A father of a darling girl and I were talking last week and he said that he wanted his daughter to ride more and not have to do the work part of the catching, grooming, and saddling. I smiled as I explained.

Riding horses is a combination of strength, timing, and balance. Kids in this country are physically weak (unless they are actively involved with weight training and physical conditioning 4+ times a week.)

When you walk out to the field, you are clearing your stress from being under fluorescent lights all day; feeling the sun soak into your bones. As your body moves on uneven surfaces, it strengthens your legs and core.

When you groom your horse (especially currying), you are toning your arms and stabilizing your core.

When you carry your saddle, your arms, chest, and back are doing isolated strengthening work.

Being near horses, calms and makes you tune into the splendor of these empathetic animals.

When you ride at a posting trot, it’s equivalent to a slow jog calorie burn wise.

After a lesson, the riders are physically tired and mentally quiet and balanced.

Horses feel your heart beat and mirror your emotions back.

Riding large and somewhat unpredictable animals makes you resilient and pushes your expectations.

Working with horses is so much more than learning how to ride.

So parents, make your children carry their saddles. Don’t do the hard parts for them, as long term it actually hurts them. To advance with their riding, they must get stronger. You can help by doing the high parts.

I love having you all at the farm, and am so grateful to get to share these fascinating animals with you.

With the weather we are having it would be wrong not to bath the ponies! Other four will be done tomorrow 🐴🐴

Treated ourselves to a day away at a heavy horse music festival, spent about ten minutes watching the music, and about three hours with the Suffolk punches! There incredible and has definitely cemented the idea of owning one, one day soon!
