Today is the one year mark from when we picked up my first Extreme Mustang Makeover horse, Smalls! The makeover truly was a special experience - taking a wild mustang and helping him develop into a willing partner is a mental, physical and spiritual journey hard to put into words! I learned an incredible amount from this horse and owe so much to him. He is currently loving life in Shelbyville with his amazing owner and trainer!

Love our horses of all shapes and sizes!

I’ve never been much of a cat person but this one might convert me! Meet newest addition Ozzy, a supposed stray who quickly figured out a heated tack room and consistent food wasn’t a bad deal!

Everyone deserves this type of friendship 😆 Whiz and Henry were instant besties and spend their days doing this as well as sharing the same bag of hay - even though there are two available in their field!

We welcomed in our newest training horse last week! Henry is a mustang originally from Wyoming but lived in Alaska for several years. Needless to say he’s thoroughly enjoying the weather and has settled in well with his new bestie Whiz. We’ll be posting some training videos soon to show Henry’s progress!

Last week Zorro left with his new owners, Beth Boesche-Taylor and David at Sirocco Ridge Farm! I don't think I could've dreamt up more perfect owners than this lovely couple. It has been so evident that they spare no expense in giving their animals the best care possible, and take the health and wellbeing of their animals very seriously.

On top of that, Zorro will be Beth and David's future dressage and combined driving horse! We can't wait to follow along on his journey!

All pictures are of Zorro in his new forever home ❤️ Huge thanks to Beth for the updates!

Today I’m feeling especially grateful that we are able to live on site with our horses! They all are tucked in safely and have plenty of forage to help stay warm. With one horse from Canada and another from Alaska, at least 2 of them seem completely comfortable and far happier than I am!

I know not every trainer has the opportunity to live on site - we are praying for safety for all those that are driving to take care of their horses. Hoping Snowmegaddon is short lived!

The girls went home today and we are already missing them! We are so appreciative of our wonderful clients that understand a horse’s education takes time and commitment. We love giving young horses mental breaks and allowing them time off to mature and rest. We can’t wait to have Udele and Ulanee back in the summer for more fun and field trips!

Since I see my horses 600 times a day it’s sometimes hard to notice changes in weight and muscle - but looking back at old pictures sure makes it clear! Also reminiscing the good old tank top days…

Barnaby, Udele and Ulanee went to their first fun show this weekend at Kentucky Cowtown Arena! This was a great first exposure to a busy show environment for them. They experienced being around lots of new horses, kids, dogs, and loud speakers. Super proud of how well they handled everything as this has probably been the most challenging field trip yet!

Whiz sure meant business with that kick 😳

With all the desensitizing we do, my goal is never to get the horse to just stand still, but rather encourage them to be fully engaged and confident with whatever obstacle we’re working on! Focusing on keeping their feet still often leads to them being shut down and tense. I love how mentally engaged Whiz is in this clip - he’s very expressive and aware (notice the frequent changes in his ears and eyes) but comfortable and confident with the tarp!

This has become a nightly routine every time we blow out the barn aisle! If Tex was a dog he would 💯enjoy hanging his head out of the window

Could he be any cuter? ❤️ I’ve found with young/green horses, simplicity is key. I encourage them to find their own consistent rhythm within each gait and stay soft laterally. Once they can maintain balance and softness, we have a nice foundation to eventually work on collection and lateral movements. I’m super proud of how Henry is coming along, this was his second time in this arena and he stayed totally relaxed and focused on me!

Not to be dramatic but this cat has enriched our lives SO much 😂 he is quite the character!

Henry has a bit of “stranger danger” and takes awhile to warm up to new people. Even with people he knows, he can be a bit standoffish and introverted. I’ve been trying to get him to enjoy being around people more and have some positive experiences where we aren’t asking anything of him - just spending quality time. This was Jonathan’s first real interaction with him and it was adorable to watch him start to enjoy scratches and attention. It may not seem like a big deal for most horses but this was the most expressive and unguarded I’ve seen Henry yet!
