Another super transformation 🤩

Cheffy has been with us less than 3 months and has made amazing progress with his weight, so proud of this boy.

Cheffy came up from Wellington for some time on our track system when his lovely owner knew something needed to be done. The combination of managed forage and LOTs of movement has done wonders for this sweet boy.

Peta from meraki_equine has put in loads of ridden hours with Cheffy and he has been thriving out hacking with his buddies.

I just love seeing these horses go home with a new lease on life and can’t wait for the updates on all the adventures Wren and Cheefy get up to this summer 💕

We love our golden oldies 🥰 Can anyone guess the average age of this gang? The oldest is 32 and the youngest 16.

This paddock we affectionately call the retirement village, even though a few of these lovelies are far from ridden retirement!

We love to be able to provide a slower pace where these, often metabolically compromised, horses can have a fulfilled life with friends of similar energy and dietary needs 🥰

Loving the little water buffet on the track! The horses have different free choice herbs and minerals to choose from each day.

We love trying out different enrichment ideas to help keep the horses busy and thinking ☺️

We had a super day at the Manawatu A&P show yesterday with Ginny. A really great turn out for the Clydesdales in very muddy ground conditions!

Thank you soo much to the people who turned up out of nowhere to help, I was definitely feeling the love 🥰

Clean mud monkeys, wonder if that will last more than a few minutes 😅

So lucky to have a variety of hacking at our back door step!

Something a bit different! We had a drone do some spraying on our hills today. Flyform Definitely more appealing than lugging a knapsack up and down all day!

Some nice drone footage of Peta schooling Mira this morning before the rain!

Who would have thought the round pen would be perfect for pig lungeing 😜🐽

Enjoying a few days off in Hawke’s Bay pheasant shooting and pony adventures 🥰 so spoilt with some amazing weather.

Ponies on top of the world 🌎

A horse day is a good day 💕 we love our neighbour for letting us enjoy his beautiful farm

Grazing available! We don’t often advertise grazing, but will have 2 spaces coming available later this month. These spaces are in a shared grazing group (3 other geldings), will suit medium to hard keepers. Would suit long term or someone wanting to rest their paddocks over winter. Part or full livery options available. Includes use of all facilities, all weather arena, round yard, tack storage, wash bay and yards. Heaps of hacking and most importantly a lovely bunch of hassle free grazers 💕 Please send us a message for more info and to organise to come out and have a look around!

Kilt enjoying her treats this morning 😋

Track ponies coming to check out the going’s on this evening. The last of the timothy mix hay is safe and sound in the shed 😮‍💨

Nice evening for picking up marshmallows. Only one fell off the trailer on the first load so will only get better from there 😆
