Handsome baby Hops got to do big boy things today! He had a fun day learning at the beautiful Viridian Farm during the Ann Guptill clinic. Proud of this "little" guy! ❤️

Continuing our celebration of The Clovis Horsemanship Award, here is an excerpt from another competitor, Bella Perkins, who wrote about the mare Wow Factor, aka Wonder:

"When Wonder was just 5 years old, she had severe laminitis in her front feet and had a double tenotomy. A few weeks later, while still healing, it was found that she was not able to breathe through her nose. When an endoscopy and X-Rays were done, there was a mass seen that was blocking her nasal passage. She had a tracheostomy to help her breathe and a CT was taken. Exploratory surgery was the only option to potentially save her life. The surgery was a success, and they were able to remove what was, thankfully, a noncancerous polyp. She then had a long recovery from both the laminitis and the extensive surgery. Wonder entered our lives almost 3 years after all this. Even with all she has been through, she is the sweetest mare. Because of her laminitis and metabolic issues, we are very careful with her diet. Wonder is also understandably a little sensitive around her face due to the extensive surgery and months of healing afterwards. It’s taken a while, but she has gotten much steadier in the connection and seems more content in work than ever!"

It brings me such joy to honor Clovis alongside Triple Crown Feed and Spa Equine: Sports Medicine and Performance Dentistry for this award and to acknowledge exceptional horsemanship and care. The essays written by the applicants were truly inspirational! Check them out at the link below.

The Clovis Horsemanship Award, sponsored by Triple Crown, Cherry Ridge Dressage, Spa Equine Sports Medicine, and Friends of Clovis, is given in memory of Clovis, a larger-than-life Oldenburg gelding who triumphed over multiple health challenges to compete successfully at the FEI levels into his mid-20s. His success was a testament to exceptional veterinary care, careful nutrition, and dedicated horsemanship.

The Clovis Horsemanship Award honors competitors at the Dressage4Kids Youth Dressage Festival who demonstrate similar dedication to the care of their equine partners.

Here is an excerpt from one of the competitors, Madeline Fasse: "My horse Filia is challenged with Kissing spine and Spondylosis. It has affected her in many ways and how we have to care for her. The care for Filia is very complex. She has to get body work, supplements, shots and PEMF therapy. All of this helps her be the happy spoiled horse that she deserves to be."

Thank you to everyone that took the time to offer up their services as an official ‘tester’ !

It has not been easy to choose just 2 testers, we could easily have chosen 100 ! But it had to be two and here they are:

Tami Thompson
Alexis Miller


ENTRIES CLOSED 3:30 PM (BST) 11 OCT.

We want 2 people to trial this leather. They will be black boots without a top or other styling features but still beautiful of course!

TO QUALIFY: LIKE AND SHARE - if you ride multiple horses a day, so will give them a really good trial, we want to hear from you! Tell us below in the comments why you’d be the best person to put these boots to the test!
