Training Tips: Lead Changes Pt 2
This week for #CLFTrainerTips, we are adding to training lead changes by talking about how to ask for the change and what to look for when first introducing the change. #teamclf #westernpleasurebred #painthorse #westernriding #pleasurehorse #APHA
This week for #CLFTrainerTips, we are going through some things to work on with your horse before you start working on lead changes. These exercises are a great way to help create the foundation needed to for your horse successfully learn lead changes when it comes time to teach them. #teamclf #westernpleasurebred #painthorse #westernriding #pleasurehorse #APHA #westernhorse #horsetraining #horsetrainer #horsetrainingtips #horsegirl #horsegirls #horses #performancehorses #TeamCLF #performancehorse #westernpleasurehorse #equine #equinelife

We recently started a new topic in our βTraining Tipsβ series on TikTok, revolving around lead changes and showing in the Western Riding. Our first video touches on what Western Riding in the pleasure world is, what the pattern includes, and what is required of your horse to be successful in the show pen. Make sure you follow us on TikTok to keep up with this series! https://www.tiktok.com/@countylinefarmllc?_t=ZT-8ss46dnuZ2p&_r=1

Required Sensation βCarsonβ is a 2022 APHA sorrel gelding by Required Invitation out of a Zippos Sensation mare. He is 15.3hh and still growing. I bought him as a yearling last summer, started him this spring and put about 60 days on him, hauled him to a couple of shows, and then turned him out and he lived outside all summer to grow. I brought him back into training after Labor Day. Heβs easy, soft, super sweet, quiet and DIY friendly but he doesnβt love clippers π heβs been on the back burner because Iβm super busy. This is my personal horse and Iβm only selling him because I donβt have the time he deserves. Heβs going to be a super cool all arounder when heβs finished and will be easy to finish. Heβs got a super solid foundation on him. Heβs very uncomplicated, simple, and wants to please. Located in Marengo, IL π²low 5 figures
Happy Halloween from your friends at County Line Farm!
On this weeks #CLFTrainerTips, we are discussing hoof care and how to know if your horse needs shoes or not.
This week we caught up with one of our amazing farriers, Jamie. She is working on making some much needed corrections to one of the newer horses we have in for training, Cheeto! He came to us with unbalanced feet and with a pretty big quarter crack. We are super excited to see what Jamie can do for him and we will make sure to keep you updated on his journey!
A LUXURIOUS NIGHT OUT βLouβ is a 2019 APHA roan gelding by Awesome All Night. Heβs 15β1hh and has had one owner since he was a weanling. Heβs been owned and trained primarily by an amateur with some professional training as well. He has been shown lightly and used in some lessons with his owner. Heβs also been down trails with his owner and goes through water. He would be appropriate for a DIY amateur or an older, experienced youth. He is currently not in a program - video taken today after not being ridden for a month. Would make a nice lesson horse. Owner is looking for a quick, easy sale as she needs him sold ASAP due to no fault of his own. He does have some maintenance and his price reflects this as well as the fact he needs to find a new zip code ASAP.
