check up went great, he was very good for the Vet and other than being overweight which were aware of at 71 pounds. He is basically healthy. I can’t handle the gray hairs on his nose though.
He was my pandemic rescue so he’s 6 now. it’s hard to believe it’s been that long. I miss living with him. Scrap A Roo,
Scrap A Roo, what is Momma gonna do with you?

I got a brand new hoof knife today. It is VERY sharp lol

didn’t even make it to the barn. I was carrying it. Accidentally dropped it and brushed against my other hand as it fell.
Only me. I might end up having to glue it a little bit, but I quit bleeding after I use some horse wound powder on it.

If it is cut the horse, we would have called the vet. The humans are fine with vet wrap and walk it off right 🤣

When we took in , it was during Covid. The local shelter was closed, and there was nowhere for his finder to take him.

The local courts were also closed and no one could file a zoning violation against us. we brought feather the unicorn home to stay in the town backyard for three months of lockdown.

She needed medicine every day and I needed access to Horses as medicine every day 😂

Hard to believe that was almost 6 years ago.

Feather The Unicorn throwback to before the local pet store opened a large enough dog wash to fit her and I brought her to my suburban Beavercreek OH home to bathe her in the shower 😂😂

Since I started training Horses in 2010 and especially since I launched Dreaming Fields professionally in 2023, I have been on a journey to define what it is that I do with Horses and who it is that I am in the horse world.

Along the way, I’ve had a lot of people try to convince me to do what they do and I’ve had some bad wrecks.

I don’t teach riding lessons. I don’t really teach Horses to be ridden. I teach parade lessons. I teach this is how you lead the horse through the gate. I teach Horses and their people to understand each other and how to keep each other safe. I teach connection.

I use minimal gear and believe in continually working toward needing less and less. I use a clicker and food rewards to help show our horses the right answer because we don’t work for free; so why should they? I start babies bitless and ba****ck, I do silly things and have fun with them.

I don’t compete. I don’t believe in outdated dominance theory. We don’t Fight with horses. We don’t push Horses or Humans over their comfort thresholds into fight or flight mode. We don’t get on a horse who doesn’t want to stand to let us to get on.

We believe that you shouldn’t tie anyone up and do something to them if they wouldn’t let you do if they were loose; no matter how many feet they have.

Kitty the pony has been in my life for over a decade. I bought her for my stepdaughter and then she was handed back-and-forth between our horsey friend group as kids grew into and out of her.

Alea pointed out how happy everyone looks. We didn’t intend to ride it was frozen and when we went out to get them, we hopped on with the halter ba****ck. (Helmets kids forgive my example)

She hasn’t been ridden in a couple months, and I have only ridden a couple of times this winter. What we do is different, but this feels every bit as much of a win as jumping under the lights.
