First day of war horse training on 5 year old Iniciu do Patewood. First day with swords. This mare has the best brain I have ever seen! Tina Wartman up!
UPDATE: SOLD!!!! We are so happy that Zeke has found his home. Kate and Zeke have a bright future together. Congrats to them both. FRIESIAN COLT FOR SALE. Sweet Zeke has just turned one. He has an in-your-pocket personality, superb bone, tremendous size and lovely movement. Super low breeding co-efficient. For sale to the right home. Located in New Jersey. 13K.
Iniciu - the journey continues! Her first bareback cool down. As expected, she was an angel! Tina Wartman, thanks for all your marvelous work with our girl!
Iniciu...the journey continue! We are back! Been so busy this show season I haven't posted much but here is our 4 year old Lusitano mare starting her under saddle work. This is after only a handful of rides. So proud of her! She is so willing and remarkably balanced for a baby (just like her brother Bravo and her sister Fiera). She is a total joy to work with. My junior assistant, Tina Wartman doing a lovely job. ❤️
Iniciu under saddle! She is an absolute saint and incredibly well balanced. Love my girl. Thanks Braelyn for doing so well on her! Laurie Meivogel-she's a natural with babies!
Iniciu - the journey continues! So our little girl is now coming four (its hard to believe) and she has started under saddle. Here is her first trot under saddle with Braelyn Meivogel up. Calm, confident and happy - just the way it should be. She is remarkably balanced for a baby - just like her brother Bravo. Note the very loose reins - it is important to remember that you never want to discourage the forward in a baby. She has started walking off the lunge line - learning steering but I will have to get a video of that. She has done some steering with long lines but put someone on their back and it all seems new to them LOL. Her butt just shot up another 2+" so she is still growing. Dragao babies (Dragao is her grandfather) have a tendency to develop very slowly which is just fine with me! What a wonderful journey this is :).
Iniciu do Patewood - the journey continues! Another day of firsts for our sweet 3 yr old PSL Iniciu. First day in the big girl saddle and first day with lunge line through the bit to girth. The first step toward bend and flexion. She was an angel ... So proud of her!
The journey of Iniciu continues! It's been slow going because of the Patewood show and clinic schedule but she is making great progress. Today was her first day being lunged from the bit and being introduced to side reins. As always, she was an angel. Definitely a spunky girl but so very good! Can't wait to long-line her next!!!
As requested... More video of Iniciu do Patewood as she continues to learn. Today was the first day she had a bit in her mouth! She is such a good girl!
Good morning! Today we are going to put our lovely Oldenburg mare, Dee's double bridle on for the first time. The double bridle in the video is not put together in the normal way. Normally your curb bit is on the headstall and your bradoon is on the strap. I've put the curb on the strap since I am using one of mybits and adding it to Dee's existing single bridle. This lets me take it off easily and go between the double and the single. Once Dee gets her own double bridle we can put it together in the traditional fashion. As the video says, make sure the bits lie comfortably in her mouth one slightly above the other. They need to lay smoothly on her tongue. Also adjust the curb chain carefully and make sure to remove any flash band. As I suspected, Dee was very comfortable in the double bridle and began calmly playing with the two bits right away. She is such a sweet girl! ,
Welcome back. So sorry I've been quiet here - bronchitis does that to you. But I'm back - coughing but back online! We are going to take a step away from Iniciu and introduce you to another lovely mare here at Patewood for training. Her name is Donarella - we call her Dee. She is a 12 year old Oldenburg mare owned by Judith Benoit-Schaeffer. Dee came here to Patewood to get the double bridle put on her and has been here since the beginning of January. The first month she was here was just reviewing the basics and making sure she was ready for a double bridle. In this video, Dee's Owner, Judith, is warming her up. You can see that she is a lovely mover and that she is balanced and relaxed - totally comfortable with her body and her bit. It is essential that a horse be able to carry itself in a single bridle before you put a double bridle on. Many times people use a double bridle to compensate for a lack of balance or self-carriage. That is NOT what a double bridle is intended for. A double bridle is simply a refinement of the aids - it gives you more tools, more subtle signals. If a horse is not ready for the subtlety of the double then you should keep working in the single until your horse is ready. I think Dee is ready for her double now!
