So within the space of Hamish being in from the field, which was about 10 minutes, he’s managed to somehow, gash his leg open! Bed is immaculate and hasn’t even gone on it or rolled! Wears boots in the field and the blood was still wet, so he’s done it in the stable 🤦🏼‍♀️ lord help me! Still rode him, he’s sound and still managed to spook at a crow taking off from the arena fence and buck, then when I cleaned it, acted like it was falling off and was on 3 legs 🤦🏼‍♀️🙄

This little spicy orange hasn’t jumped a show jump for 4 weeks, so I set up a little exercise with lots of turns and some footwork for him to think about and he felt incredible! He was very keen and thoroughly enjoyed himself 🧡

Hams has had an MOT this week. Dentist yesterday, the report back was, teeth were sharp at the bottom but just a routine rasp. These are done every 6 months to keep the dragon comfortable and happy. I then had Laura Tollit from LMT Veterinary Chiropractic out to give Hamish a treatment. He had his first acupuncture session and thoroughly enjoyed it, more reactive on right side, similar report to what Equi-Supple Animal Physio give us, right hind, left shoulder tightness. Laura Found him tight behind saddle area too (caused by inflamed stomach from linseed, so can’t lift his abs to use his back 🤦🏼‍♀️)and worked on his clunky jaw, finding the right tmj tighter. After waving at everyone when I tried trotting him up, he moved beautifully and enjoyed his treatment 🧡

To all those that have horses with allergies, I have finally found a fly mask that’s got the feel of cotton and doesn’t irritate the skin 🙏 Hamish has just had some more hair sent off to Keri as his allergies have flared up again 🙄 but hey, least I found a fly mask 😂

This is little Oaty. The grey thoroughbred I first wrote about last week. He grew to a grand height of 15.1 and is super cute and compact. Vicki let me have a sit on him today and I can now help her better on the ground. Typical ex racehorse, no mouth and doesn’t understand leg, but we can now teach him what it all means. This was him after his walk session today 😴

Hi I’m Nina and I like to be broken every other week so Ashleigh can’t ride me. Mum said I’m work shy and I plan different ways to get out of being ridden. Today, my back leg wouldn’t work and I tried broncing when I was asked to trot. I got snacks so I’m happy about the outcome 🤷🏼‍♀️ Jo Zwierzchaczewski-Mitchelhill

Have given Hamish the weekend off from ridden work to let his body chill out after an intense few months of travelling every week. Today is another day off, I just wanted to get his brain engaging for 10 minutes. So we just put one pole out and did some inhand work over it. He absolutely nailed walking with it between his legs and found it super easy. We then walked next to it, pushing him over it to open up his shoulders and hips. But this is the thanks I get 👅 🤦🏼‍♀️

A few days of teaching in the sunshine is my idea of bliss 🥰 yesterday I did some schooling with the lovely Nina owned by Jo Zwierzchaczewski-Mitchelhill, she found it very hard but we know what to work on to help strengthen her. No videos of her, just a picture of her after looking a tad sleepy after.

Then today I went to teach Tina Hollis and Bubbles and what an improvement since the first session just a few weeks back. Tina had definitely been doing her homework and her confidence has really grown, on the ground and ridden. Bubbles was pooped after 15 minutes 😂

2 very big horses who thrive from short and sweet sessions and have both come on leaps and bounds.

He looks so fit and well at the moment 🥰😍

So I’m hoping that’s my 3 up! Hamish has decided to become satan this last week. Saturday, I lunged him in the Pessoa and he bucked so high, he managed to snap his sausage boot from his leg. Sunday, he bucked because I said no to him trotting as we were walking, he did a protest and bucked and managed to kick the fence and cut his leg 🤦🏼‍♀️ then this morning, I turned him out first thing and he bucked as I let him go and I watched his shoe fly through the air. Luckily, my farrier is up to shoe him tomorrow anyway, but he’s in complete brat mode and is on my last nerve 🤬🤬🤬this bucking thing needs to stop 😩

Went to teach lovely Tina and Bubbles today. Started off getting Tina to do 5 minutes of ground work and then on she got. Lots of improvements and lots of things to work on. He’s a difficult one as his trot is sooooo big, but he’s not balanced enough to go round in that big trot, so Tina has to really use her core to balance him and lots of serpentines and big circles to get him to focus and listen. Lots to like and in just 15 minutes he was cooked but learnt lots 💪🏻

Hams demonstrating how to do carrot stretches. He does these almost every day, before and after work. He knows the routine and will do anything for a snack 😂 it’s a good way of keeping their muscles supple and them flexible and seeing where they are weak. Then he gets kisses and snacks after 🧡

Started a new journey today with Tina Hollis and Bubbles. Started with groundwork and then getting Tina to follow it through and teach her how to achieve it. I’ve known Tina for 7 years and used to help her with her horses back when I worked at Stanhope, so jumped at the chance to help her with Bubbles. We have both known Bubbles since he was born (and have really cute pictures of him too, he was little once 😂) he now stands at a whopping 17.2 as a 4year old and is by Glocks Dream Boy 😍
