Hoofbeat Harbor Horsemanship

I've been helping this horse get over some fears/anxiety and getting him confident giving to cues!

06/24/2022

Started groundwork on this nice gelding this week also!

Hey yall! It's been a while since I've posted due to my phone not working but i have a new one now that works much better then the old one! I've got a bunch of new horses in so I'll be posting those in the coming days. I'm starting groundwork on this beautiful mare!

It ain't fancy, but Hoofbeat Harbor Horsemanship has officially moved into their new summer outdoor facility! We're super excited to be moved into this location! And be outdoors!

This horse came today me lacking confidence. We're restoring it's faith in humanity and it seems to be doing fine!

This is what can happen when your Dad is the best Carpenter in whole United States! A brand new tack shed! Out of old Lumber and steel but it didn't cost me a dime! Just took about 20 hours to build!

I'm starting this 3yr old palomino from scratch! Currently halter breaking him.

06/02/2022

Saddled this bay for the first time today 👍

I've fallen head over heels for this Mule! She wasn't very cooperative for the pictures but I did manage to get a fairly decent one! 2 months ago she wasn't even halter broke and now she is just so quiet and gentle! I'm going to put the first ride on her in the next day or two!

Building confidence into this pretty one-eyed horse!

It's been a while since I posted, today I finally got a minute while it's raining to sit down and make a few posts. Been busy in all my spare moments working on getting my outside facility ready to move horses to. This paints tune-up is coming along fine, got her softened up in the mouth some and started riding her outside! Also Happy Memorial day to every one! Invest some time in the people that are dear to you. We won't have them forever and in the end the people in your life that have shared your journey with you will matter more than anything else!

Doing groundwork on this palomino this week too!

Giving this pretty paint mare a tune-up!

If this isn't beautiful then I don't know what is!
2yr old Belgian quarter horse cross! I'll be starting him under saddle next week!

There are no shortcuts to a soft horse, and how we handle our horse today determines where he'll be tomorrow.

05/12/2022

Got this beautiful mare in last weekend and have been doing groundwork with her. She is the second horse I've trained with only one eye. It has its challenges but it's amazing the trust these animals have!

05/11/2022

Not a perfect picture I know but this Mule has sure quieted down the last couple days and is teaching me a LOT about Horsemanship!

05/04/2022

When nothing in the tack shed fits, you improvise!

04/29/2022

She's turning into quite the saddle horse!

04/23/2022

My very first felt hat ever! Right out of the box! Got delivered today from Mike Marsh Millinery!
Haven't got a chance to put it to use yet.

Slow down, it might be faster

It was nap time at the ranch

Another horse I'm working on.... Something I've been thinking about lately - true Softness is the absence of resistance.

04/20/2022

Everything there is to love about horses packed in this cute little package! TBH this is probably the nicest pony I've ever been around!

04/19/2022

This draft cross is coming along nicely!
Training tip: 30 minutes with your horse that's positive, is better than an hour that's negative!
