Strutting into the weekend 💅
Another lovely youngster backed today! What a handsome boy he is! 😍🖤🤍
💜DYALN💜
First time long reining down the bridle path for Dylan today, a minor setback with work under saddle so we’re back to a bit of ground work and he’s confident as ever! 😍

Took Bess for her first spin around Mostyn Farmride solo yesterday, she popped a few small jumps, did the platform, went through the water and did plenty of open space cantering, the weather was perfect for it!

⭐️DYLAN⭐️ Dylan working really nicely first time long lining with his saddle on, how grown up does he look! You can also get a feel for how big this youngster actually is 🤣 He’s coming on a treat 🥰 Owned by Mags Jones
⭐️DYLAN⭐️
This little horse is a world away from what he was when we started a few weeks ago, from being totally terrified of the lunge line to being a relaxed horse on the long lines. He is working off of the voice command really well, we had half,walk,trot and canter on the long lines today and he really took it all in 🥰

🏴STEVEN🏴
Typical Welsh weather yesterday morning! Out hacking with Steven we went on a much further route than he’s been before (this time with a friend) and he didn’t put a foot wrong the whole way, we met some wheelie bins and scary flying bags all of which he took in his stride, shaping up to be a super little horse!

Decided to change it up a bit for Mal today, keep him on his toes! We went off out for a long rein hack, he was possibly the best behaved he’s ever been 😂 Doing too much of the same thing with him is no good because he just gets bored, he’s being going beautifully in the school so I thought we’d do something different! No napping, just a happy, forward horse 🥰

After having a while off, Mal has decided he’s not a massive fan of waiting and standing at the mounting block and being as big as he is, getting on from the ground just isn’t an option! So today we focussed on positive reinforcement at the block, no tack, so headcollar, just him freely taking himself there and standing for a sweetie 🙂 Clever boy!

So after what feels like forever, Mal was finally ridden again today! He’s had nearly 8 weeks off dude to lameness but he’s not totally sound and back in work! We didn’t do too much just a little bit of a walk and trot in the school, but a step in the right direction for this big guy 🖤

He’s comes further and further every time I work with him, today he had his first solo ride in the school since his owner had a nasty fall. And he didn’t put a foot wrong, we had a good few trots where he felt very relaxed and we even popped over a very tiny jump which he really enjoyed!
Well done Mal, we’re so proud of you 🖤
