So Rascally has been back home just over a week now. He has continued to be a good boy and his education continues. Leonie Wheeler now taking the reins back as trainer but I still visit weekly. Sand school replaced by tennis court but it works! We will keep going with all the basics until we lose a hold on the weather ( did we ever gain a hold this year?) then he can have the winter off to grow again!! Coming back to work next spring!! Best news of all following boot camp he had a successful and well behaved visit from the farrier!!

Rascally Robin has experienced so many new things in the 21/2 weeks here. Today it was first ever bath. I introduced the hose on a long line as a light rain shower and he soon settled and accepted it! I couldn’t help but go the extra mile and turn him out show ready for some lovely pics for his owner to have as a memory !

So Robin, the beautiful Exmoor currently staying for GW lessons, had his first walk out on the roads today! He managed very well with all the big wide world has to offer. What a clever Rascally!!

So currently we have this lovely 2 year old Exmoor in for ground work training. Exmoors were bred to be work horses so they have a very thirsty brain. Keeping that brain busy with alsorts of ground work exercises and patterns supports them as they develop. This chap is out of a very good blood line direct from the moor and he is loving mental challenge. Super soft, super settled and super responsive!! He’s an all round super star pupil!!

03/07/2024

Rascally Robyn has come to stay for some intensive learning. Beautiful stamp of an Exmoor but oh boy do their brains need to be given a job!! He’s got his paws settled and his PJ’s unpacked !! Time to put that brain to positive work!!
