Congratulations Leia Neitzke on the purchase of Zitta (Zeta) from CS Young Horse Training! They are excited to begin adventuring and hauling out once they get to know each other 🤗.

Blue Ribbon Equine Transport and Training has been busy! Simba headed to his new home in Bend, Or from Janicki Dressage, Hawk owned by Hannah Graves headed to Cle Elum today and did great 👍🏼.

Signatory, a 2yr old Hanoverian gelding is still available and shows dressage and jumping talent.

Been working nonstop with this guy to getting him feeling safe in his trailer. Blue is the epitome of the saying “the fast way with horses is the slow way.” So happy to see him volunteering forward steps on his own ❤️.

Very well said.

Being gentle with a horse does not mean letting the horse push you around and place you in danger. Horses need to have ground manners. They need to stand reliably for the farrier and the veterinarian. They need to stand quietly while you are mounting or dismounting. They need to let you groom them, bridle them, saddle them without dancing around.

It is not that the horse is allowed free rein. Teaching basic manners, though, is a lot different from routinely smacking a horse around, yanking on the bit with rough hands, grinding on the horse in schooling sessions, or cranking the horse into draw reins or other leverage devices.

Part of being well trained is that the horse respects human boundaries, but the good trainers use only as much pressure as needed to create respect and only in situations that to do otherwise allows dangerous behavior.

Two bigs and a little! 🤗 Mose doesn’t miss a beat settling into Blue Spruce, sales horse Dallé showing off her running braid (she is a very budget friendly project youngster), and Pumpkin Pants a yearling mini who is in for full training.

Three of my bigger ponies in training. Keane is a TB being restarted with owner Niccole and doing so well. Mose, a 4yr old Clydesdale/Gypsy is checking out Lisa Fite’s animal collection and Lady the Percheron is snappy and sensitive despite appearances.

Guilty. 🤣

The golden couch is very comfy 😂. He certainly has more stamina than Tanzye!

Recent on-goings: Peach and I hit Powerline trail today, Rocky exploring his new arena, Twiggy taking in Farrell McWhirter Park, Vinnie and Alisa (match made in lease heaven), Tanzye convincing me she couldn’t possibly want a treat, Piña in trailer jail 😆 , and Tanzye getting desensitized to garbage trucks.

What was in one of my client’s front yards! I get so excited when I see something that might be spooky! This is a yearling mustang named Spirit.

Got my baby fix today! Filly on left is 2 days old and filly on the right is a 9 month old Friesian Sporthorse.

Working with 3yr old Hero on the hoof jack. What’s just as important as how safe your horse is under saddle is how safe they are for your vet and farrier!
