Yesterday we said goodbye to one of the best, Jersy.
❀️
Jersy found his way to Forward Farm 14 years ago.
πŸŽ‰
He was our first blind horse. We found him friends and he settled in.
🐴
He quickly became a favorite with riders and anyone who met him. He was kind, forgiving, game, brave,and absolutely amazing.
πŸ¦„
He taught the show horse feel, snorting, holding his head high and prancing, all while being blind.
❀️
His trust for his riders was amazing!
πŸ¦„
We will miss you tremendously but know you are in the highest horse heavens with your sight back.
❀️
Thank you Jersy for teaching us how to live. You are an inspiration to anyone who had the privilege to meet you! Rest easy boy. We love you.
🐴❀️

β€œPut the horse first.

Easy to say. Hard to do.

Putting the horse first requires commitment. It requires integrity. And patience. And energy. And money. And oh, does it require time.

Putting the horse first means earlier mornings and later nights. It means quality feed plans and the best hay that you can buy. And extra brushing so that coats gleam and manes and tails shine.

Putting the horse first means that you buy three extra bags of shavings for your stall at the horse show (yes, I know they're expensive!!), because even though you can "get by" with two, you want to do right by your horse. If you don't want to stand on concrete all weekend, why would they?

Putting the horse first means that you have a good working relationship with a quality equine vet. It means that every horse gets the best quality of care that you can afford to give it. Your performance horse is an athlete. Treat them like one.

And when your vet says, "Rest them for 10-14 days," be generous and give them the 14. Even if it's inconvenient. Even if you've aleady paid your stalls and entries. Even if it's the last thing you want to hear.

Putting the horse first means that if you've been rained out of the arena for two weeks and your horse isn't fit, you don't haul to the horse show. You choose to be fair to the horse and keep them home, instead.

It also means that if you haul three hours to the horse show only to find that the ground is dangerous, you load up and go home. It takes discipline, but you don't jeopardize what you want in the moment for the long-term confidence, health, and soundness of your horse.

Putting the horse first means that no saddle, no halter, no buckle, no trophy, no paycheck comes before the well-being of your equine partner. No matter what.. And it ain't an easy row to hoe.

Many will ride. Many will compete. Many will win. But few will be horse(wo)men.

Don't just be a competitor. Be better”
