A couple weeks ago we traveled to Minnesota to help the show horses get some show experience. Harry started his riding career showing and Ghazi showed 2-3 for the first time. Both horses did great. Today we head to our large regional show in Wisconsin.

Last week we had two nice dry days in a row so I took advantage of it and rode the show horses in the outdoor arena. We have had one wet spring. Harry had never been ridden outside yet and he did great. It's important to expose the show horses as much as possible to things.

Lessons are an important part of growing as a rider and an instructor. I was able to participate in a clinic put on by Amy Larson at Prarie Rose Training Center. I took Harry, owned by Sophia and Les Lenter, and my personal competition horse Ghazi. Both horses did great. I am excited to work on our homework, before our first show of the season.

With our wonderful spring weather we have been having, we have been able to get some projects started already. Dad has been hard at work planting trees around the property that have been growing in the garden the last two years.

Saddle fit is so important in our horses. Just like our bodies change depending on what our fitness level is, so do horses. Schleese saddles fit both the horse and the rider. Come see what they are all about all day Wednesday and in the morning Thursday.

Yesterday was spring vaccine and teeth float day at the barn. All the lesson horses did great for the vet. We are very lucky to have Dr. Heather at the Groton Vet clinic to work on our horses and do farm calls.

Training horses can be both rewarding and extremely frustrating. Each horse is different, and you can't use the same technique with each horse. I like to take a fairly slow approach to starting horses under saddle and make sure we have a good connection and that they have a solid foundation. Each horse takes a different amount of time to be comfortable with me to ride. Maggie has been an interesting case. She was very reactive when she came to me and spooked easily. Now I can say she is more of a pleasure to ride and is getting a bit more confident each day. She has been with me since June of 2023. I am so lucky to have good clients that don't make me rush the process. Shout out to Sophia and Les Lenter for trusting us with your horses.

Schleese will be back for saddle fittings April 3rd and part of the 4th. Horses muscles are constantly changing just like ours, so it is important to keep up on getting your saddles adjusted. Schleese makes sure that the saddle fits the rider and the horse. Contact Christina for more information or check out Schleese online.
