Max's has been officially admitted to our program and is doing exceptionally well. Today marks his third day, and we're looking forward to seeing his growth over the next 30 days. We are focusing on filling in Holes and developing a stronger foundation. Many thanks to Diane Shultz for her active participation and commitment to taking lessons!

When you have your 2 year-olds soft and confident in the arena by themselves with 30 mph wind gusts on the sixth ride in a bozal, you know they're on the right track. Update videos on Miss Cookie coming soon❤️🙌

Coming back after a 3-day weekend break and putting the 6 ride on her couldn't be happier with this filly!

Unpopular opinion: Many people take lessons, only to give up or lose interest. Why? With years of experience working with horses and studying the industry, I've come to a simple realization: every interaction with our horses is training, whether good or bad.

Since everyone has their own training approaches, I'll focus on what training is not. In my experience, training isn't about being fast, training is not about hard, and training is not about now. We need to prioritize doing things right with confidence before speeding up. Our society often pushes for instant gratification, but this mindset can be detrimental.

Sometimes, progress may seem slow – one good turn or small effort in the right direction per session. Many might find this boring, but I strongly disagree. Getting results is thrilling yes, but the real excitement lies in the process and journey of building a relationship.

We often rush to reach goals or compare ourselves to others, leading to frustration and disappointment for both us and our horses. Instead, find joy in making mistakes, correcting them, and building a true partnership. Find joy in giving your horse confidence and leadership.

When you focus on these aspects, everything else falls into place, and your passion and drive will be stronger than ever. Not every day will be perfect, but that's okay. Passion isn't about effortless success; it's about relentless dedication.

RAYMOND'S 5th ride after 3 days off! We are in love with this boy😍

💥Today's marks day one of Growndwork for our new prospect RAYMOND!!! Despite the snowy weather we are having here in Kentucky Raymond has made some serious progress, specifically working on desensitizing, lunging, yielding hindquarters, flexing, backing up and most important trust building exercises. Raymond displayed a ton of eagerness to please and willingness to learn. we're thrilled to see him grow and thrive in our program! WHY IS TRUST BUILDING EXERCISES SO IMPORTANT IN OUR PROGRAM FOR NEW / YOUNG HORSES? ➡️Establishes a strong foundation Trust is the cornerstone of a healthy, successful partnership between horse and handler. By building trust early on, you set the stage for a lifelong bond. ➡️Reduces anxiety and stress Young horses can be naturally curious and wary. Trust-building helps alleviate anxiety and stress, creating a more relaxed and receptive learning environment. ➡️Encourages willingness to learn When horses trust their handlers, they're more likely to be open to new experiences, training, and handling. ➡️Prevents behavioral issues Trust-building can help prevent behavioral problems, such as fear-based reactions, aggression, or evasion, which can develop if horses feel threatened or mistrustful.
