Here it finally is, what I feed my horses! 🧪 🧬
My forage based, low inflammatory, almost zero grain diet for 2 performance horses and one trail horse/brood mare. One easy keeper, one normal, and one hard. All get the same basis of a diet, and total for everyone is under 200 a month!
Please keep in mind - I am feeding horses with no dietary restrictions or major health issues (yes, their diet could be a link to this 😉) that get awesome forage, 24/7 turnout, have large green pastures, and get routine maintenance & targeted exercise… so what I do might not work for you! However, it is incredibly healthy none the less.
If you need help or have questions please ask! I’m here to assist!

• Trailering issues •
Some things to keep in mind if your horse has trailering issues... what’s the root cause?
- What style trailer do you have?
- Is your trailer loud? (Aluminum is quieter than stock, closed is quieter than open, etc.)
- Is your trailer dark?
- If you don’t have dividers, is your horse getting kicked?
- Are you tying at a comfortable length for them?
- Was there an incident? (Trailering is dangerous all in all, lots of stuff can happen.)
- How is your driving?
Questions? Just ask!
Are you obsessed??

It’s too cold to finish up the ground work/colt start series, so here’s something else I had sitting in my drafts!🥶
Have a horse that’s hard to deworm? This one’s for you!🪱
Upon request, I will be doing some videos about general issues people have with their horses! Some other topics I’ll be doing are trailering issues and bucking. Please note, I only do videos with horses my mom or I own, never training horses.

She does it again 👏🏻👏🏻
Back to back PBs at this arena to be 7th overall behind a new arena record on some FAST ground! Things to work on, habits to break, but overall, she’s such a blessing!😇

What a weekend!! 💗💗
Dixie laid down two back to back mid 15 runs at 11th Annual Fast N Furious Barrel Race! Added $ + Awards! on Saturday! We knocked our first run, but buy backs are available, so a half hour later we did it again only faster! Securing us a spot in the 2D for the NBHA & PEWC opens!

#skipassmokendixie laying down a new pb at Sunset Reins Equine Center, LLC with lots of room for improvement! Dixie is sure showing she has the speed this season!
We also competed at a Bulls N Barrels event in Brainerd, MN the night prior 🥰

Last Friday #skipassmokendixie and I made our first rodeo run together at Great Northern Classic Rodeo! 🤠
First time running under lights for the both of us, and even with a very conservative run due to only arriving 20 minutes before we ran, we still landed in the top 50% of placings! Onto the next one!🥰
