💫Really Incredible💫

Aka “Sam” 6 yo OT Standardbred gelding

If your looking for a gentle giant look no further! Sam is a complete tank all the way around and would be a tough, dependable horse for just about anyone! He has a puppy dog personality, doesn’t have a mean bone in his body and wants to please every time you throw your leg over! Sam is green broke, not a lot of buttons, with just over 30 days of riding. Sam is definitely on the slower side and likes to have relaxing rides!He’s been up and down the road, on trail rides, on the bike trail, around the farm and just out and about to see the sights and has handled everything phenomenally! He would be best suited as a trail horse but he is a clean slate with lots of potential! He is completely sound and ready to head down the trail or whichever direction you choose! Pm me for more info!

Spring is right around the corner which means we’ve been busy in the barn! Time to leg those horses up!

Enjoy the ride.

Sometimes we win. More often, we don’t win.

That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the process and the progress.

Embrace the failures as lessons. Use the lessons to grow. Be better tomorrow than you were today.

Make new friends, visit with old ones, support one another, and be grateful you are barrel racing.

One of my favorite workouts for my horses is this simple one. I learned it from a great vet along time ago. This helps to build and strengthen their backs and pulls their belly up.

Simple and cheap. 2 polos Velcroed together, run down through an O-Ring snaffle, between the legs and up around the wither to tie. The object is to not have the nose behind the vertical line. You want your horse to drive and lift themselves. If they are to far behind the vertical your not lifting or engaging their hind end, your only pulling their heads down.
*Important to note the speed. A medium trot is best. Not to slow and not to fast. How they stretch and move their bodies at a brisk trot is what pulls their belly up and stretches and strengthens their backs.*

This exercise is also how I start all my horses out when they start getting in shape for the season. This black beauty is my 22 year old semi retired rodeo horse. She is getting herself in shape because momma (me) wants to run barrels again and all the other options are babies. She knew I was ready because she was standing at the gate waiting for me, which is very unlike her!

I am here to help you with your horses. Message me and let’s see what we need to do.

A little birthday present one of my lesson students brought me last week!

Saturday marked 2 years of having PT Cruz in the Family. This horse has been such a blessing. I always wanted to buy a finished horse but as we most all know it isn’t cheap… I’ve always had horses that I’ve broke myself or they’ve all needed work, thankfully I’ve had amazing people to help me! But that being said I wanted to have a horse or his level but I could never afford it. In 2020 I decided to treat myself for all of my hard work and with the help of my parents I was able to take a small loan out (and yes it’s paid off😂) and I picked Cruz up a day later! At first it wasn’t easy, I’d never ridden a horse like him before and we were not very good at the beginning lol…. but with practice and getting used to each other we finally clicked and this past year we finally had each other figured out and he took me all the way to the IBRA National Finals and even placed in the top 10 in our division and brought home 3 checks out of about 600 tough competitors! This horse has made so many dreams come true for me and I will forever be grateful for him!
