Sky Fires-Practical Pony

#hopteamnutmeg says it's hot outside this week. Bring your pets in

Since everyone loved nutmegs video yesterday hope this may help some people. Different positions to work on with your horse to help for Farrier visits featuring #hopteamgaeta. Let's help keep our farriers happy, alive, and maybe even impressed with how your horse does for their next visit. Remember if your struggling with it you Farrier probably is too but they can't do their job well unless your horse cooperates. This can also be a handy work out for the human!

Oh tomahawk. I love you but is this really necessary?

#hopteamgaeta and I went for a walk today, just the two of us, to stretch our legs and see new sights and sounds. Nothing beats real life experience and she takes it all in stride!

#hopteamgaeta standing for tacking yesterday. And yes, gasp, I did it on her right side (also her blind side) which obviously was not a big deal for her. This outstanding young girl is looking for that place to call home and the person to call her own.

Take a moment to enjoy this beautiful scene with me, turn on volume for added enjoyment:-)

#hopteamnutmeg also had some desensitizing today while I played with the dogs then we worked with the dreaded plastic bag. Her reactions are less and less dramatic every day.

#hopteamgaeta got to work with some of my lessons today doing some in hand obstacles/desensitizing/confidence building and did fabulous with people of various levels and experience. She is Adoptable from Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue, INC.

A couple cute clips of #hopteamnutmeg from yesterday. Starting with her standing tied in her stall while some hammering is taking place. I then let her out to roam the barn for a bit while I mucked her stall where she enjoyed a great dirt roll and followed by some scratches.

A ride on Kid today.

#hopteamnutmeg learning about the big scary measuring stick. I believe she is about 9.3 hands as the stick starts at 10 #shortgirlproblems After some training she will be Adoptable Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue, INC and it's never to early to get an application in if you think you may be interested.

Giving #hopteamgaeta her dewormer is pretty easy and she's Adoptable Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue, INC

#hopteamgaeta loves the hands on gloves and would like whoever her future adopters may be to have a pair please. Also look how cute she is!

Good morning to you too! Ok these horses are getting a little demanding....heard a loud sound outside and the dogs started barking like mad. I open the door and there is Gaeta standing on my porch....... I guess she wants to be a house pony! My life is a unique one for sure and I wouldn't trade it. #hopteamgaeta Available for adoption from Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue, INC

#hopteamgaeta standing ground tied for her blanket like a good girl.

Traffick jams look a little different in the country....if I'm ever late now you know why ....
