Day 7 with Penny🪙
I can’t say enough good things about this small, but mighty mare! She’s so curious and incredibly intelligent!🥹
She is haltered and leading around like a pro, but she still has some reactivity to quick movements and unknown objects and so I’ve been introducing her to some “sacking out” and getting her used to my silly antics!🤣
Everything that I do she takes in stride! I can’t be more happy with Pen Pen🥰

Too many times do I see tools being used as weapons. Crops, whips, spurs, side reins, etc are supposed to be tools to aid our NATURAL aids and REFINE things the horse already knows or needs help further understanding. They are NOT supposed to be used to force submission or get quick results.
When our artificial aids become weapons, our horses become slaves instead of partners. They learn to fear and anticipate instead of being confident and independent. My horse should never anticipate anything. They should look for guidance and respond to my aids with confidence.
When a horse is taught to fear, they will constantly over react to pressure in which people will then say “the horse is reactive” or in some cases, fear turns to frustration and aggression and now they will say that horse is a “problem horse”.
Too many horses and ponies come to my program having holes in their training, fearing the use of basic aids, have anxiety under saddle, or react aggressively/fearfully to things that they should look forward too.
Lately, there has been a lot of toxicity and un-horseman like behavior. There are no “problem horses”, just problematic training methods. Be compassionate, be empathetic, STOP RUSHING!
Microcurrent session for the princess👸
We love seeing how the horses and ponies react to the micro current! All have a different reaction and a different opinion, but each and every one of them ends up licking, chewing, and yawning (signs of tension release and contentment)!

A month ago, this guy STRUGGLED to pick up the right lead and when he did he was unbalanced, uncomfortable, anxious, and defensive🥹
With a combination of patient training, chiropractic, microcurrent, and an awesome farrier, Vic feels great!!🤩
It’s amazing to think that this is the same horse that just 3 months ago couldn’t even stand in the middle of the arena with a rider without melting down🤯 We are so excited to see how far this guy goes🩷
