Training Update!
Maggie is doing wonderful! She's going to be an amazing working horse! I was only able to get pictures of our ground driving in the big ring, which went fantastic, walk, trot, canter and over and around obstacles!
But I also rode her walk/trot all over the arena and around and over the obstacles!
We worked on that ever important (especially for her future job) Whoa and back up!
She's turning really well now and about 80 percent of the time totally off my leg!
Super pleased with how her headshyness is coming along, the barn girls have helped with that by showering her with love and attention. We even tacked and untacked at the wash rack today, she's standing much calmer and as long as you let her know what you are doing, no freak outs, better every day!

The barn had a blast this past weekend, not only decorating but riding together! Lessons in the ring, trail ride around the farm with friends. And our Evie is back in town, so good to have all my barn girls together, you should have seen that reunion!!!

Couldn't have asked for a better weekend.

For all the girls with the muckers, half chaps and gloves with a hole in a finger. For the girls who skip a party because they have to get up at 4:30am. The ones who will feed, muck, and repair a fence for the love of their best friend. This is for the girls who can drive a tractor before they can drive a car. For the girls who would rather jump fences than skip rope. This is for the girls who think bailing twine and duct tape are tools. For girls who spend more money having manes and tails braided than have their own hair done. This is for the girls who are excited opening a box with a leather halter in it. Who shovel snow to get to the barn. For the girls who filled a stocking for a horse. Who wear a bracelet or a belt with their horses's name on it, not a boy. This is for the girls who dreamed of a pony for Christmas. This is for the dreams we hold and the memories we all share. We know how to love unconditionally because a horse has taught us. This is a lifestyle not a hobby.

You've heard of Elf on the Shelf, how about Snoop on the Stoop, I mean Stall🤣🤣🤣
Our favorite rapper has joined the barn family, hanging out with his Snoopy Dogg namesake and bringing Andes mints to all. 🤣
We'll see what kind of mischief Snoop Elf comes up with! 🤣🤣

A well-trained horse is not an overnight deal…

It’s not a 30 day deal…

It’s not a six month deal even…

A well-trained horse takes years to complete.

It's that time of year!!!
Our friends, barn family, customers and fans have been asking what the barn and ponies need for Christmas!
We have a list of things here, in an assortment of price ranges, that the barn can use this year!
As always, thank you all so much for your generosity, a barn can't run without its family and support! 🥹💜

Training Update!
Maggie got to know one of the main tools of her job today, the lariat!!!
She was fantastic for me to toss and throw it around and over her. She let me hang it on her, lay it on her butt and rub it all over her. She's so very curious!
We took it easy today and did some groundwork foot practice as the farrier, JW Stafinski, came to see her today. She was a little nervous, but he took it slow, she has great feet and overall did really well! Thanks JW for being so good with nervous, young horses!!!😊💜
