As an equine groom, i never judge any of my clients and what they may or may not do with their horses.
All horses I have looked after have been happy and healthy. One client may do something with their horses that another client doesn't do. This does not make one client better with horses than the other because the horses are all cared for.
Also I would like to point out that all horses have different individual needs. One horse may love and want to be stabled but another may not like it and would like to be out 24/7. One horse may love a good ride in the school but another one may not but loves a lot of hacking out instead.
Please as equine owners, be kind to each other and do not judge one another of what we may and may not do with our horses. And for them who worry that you don't do enough with your horses, just know that to your horse what you do with them is enough. They are apart of you life but to them you are their whole world ❤️
To the owner whose horse is stabled - you work so hard to ensure your horses needs are met so they can live in comfort, thank you for your dedication!
To the owner whose horse lives out - your horse is fortunate to have an owner that can provide them the space to roam and graze as nature intended!
To the owner who rugs their horse - they will be so warm and cozy under their blanket, and less grooming means more time to ride!
To the owner of the unrugged horse - their coats are fascinating how they adapt to the weather, aren’t they?!
To the rider who wears cheap riding leggings and rubber boots – good for you…. you know that your horse couldn’t care less what you are wearing!
To the ‘all the gear and no idea’ rider - wow! You look incredible, your horse has everything it could ever wish for! You don’t have to be a grand prix rider to wear matchy-matchy. Go, you!
To the rider who rides once in a while – brilliant! It is so difficult to fit horses in around the rest of our lives. It’s great that you make the time to do the most that you can with your horse!
To the rider who never rides their horse – no problem. How lovely for your horse to spend its life being cuddled, groomed and grazing in the fields, you must have a wonderful relationship!
To the rider who rides everyday – go for it! Your dedication is admirable and your horse is benefiting from training and fitness. Well done!
To the happy hackers - you are living the dream of millions! What an honour to share such adventures with such extraordinary animals!
To the barefoot fanatic – I admire your passion. Barefoot is the best option for many horses. It is wonderful that you are trying to improve your horse’s comfort and foot health!
To the owner of the traditionally shod horse – fantastic! Shoes are the best option for many horses. It’s great to know that your horse’s feet are protected from the surfaces that we ask them to work on!
To the rider who trains with every professional and expert going – brilliant. What a wealth of knowledge and expertise you have access to!
To the self-taught rider – you must be so proud. What an achievement!
To the professional rider – you inspire me. Your results and rosettes are impressive. They are not won without hard work, commitment, sacrifice and talent. You deserve your success!
To the rider who has never won anything – who cares?! Your horse doesn’t! The passion you have for your sport is worth so much more than any material!
If you want to win and have not had any luck – keep going. You will get there eventually. The hardest won successes are the sweetest!
To the owner who keeps their horse spotlessly clean, neatly trimmed and pulled – marvellous! I applaud your attention to detail. Your horse looks beautiful!
To the owner whose horse is caked in mud and has dread locks – I laugh with you! You know that horses love to roll and if you were to bath your horse today, you would find them in exactly the same mucky state again tomorrow!
As long as your horse is happy and healthy, what you do with your horse is nobody else’s business. The only time anybody should interfere is if there is a genuine equine welfare issue, a safety issue, or if you have specifically asked for advice or help. Otherwise, please let’s not judge others.
‘Each to their own,’ and if it’s good for your horse then ‘good for you!’ 🐴❤️
