Lee said a nap & a snack what could be better!
Pt 2 from last post!
Even saddled her up, and even after some time off she did well!
Good girl Bay!
Someone snatch this girl up before I get her more broke and her price goes up!
PM me
Bay
Pulled Bay out yesterday, to see if she’d remember some of her skills after sometime off for an abscess.. and ✅ she did lovely!

A little glimpse of our 2023, it was a really good one! (Also a really hot one🤪) I met some of the most awesome people, made some of the greatest friends, and also worked with some super cool horses. I’ll forever be grateful for what 2023 taught me as a horseman!
Ready to take on 2024! 👊🏻
Yesterday
I loved how soft and responsive she had gotten on the lunge line, when we started she was very speedy/unbalanced. Still not perfect but an improvement ✅
Added a little clip of one of beauty’s party tricks lol 🤦🏻♀️ she’s going to be a trail pony, so I have been wanting to put her in some spots where she was under some pressure and work on her going forward. A small amount of sass, but then she very winglingly crossed the tarp. Lots of good girl pets and snoot boops!
Good girl!

Pipers not been consistently worked in almost 5 years!
They don’t forget. 🥰
Apollo has done a great job learning to be very tolerant of whatever we throw at him. (Katelyn Martin literally threw herself on him) 😆 this little stinker is 3 days free of any pony sass (iykyk) 🤣
Proud of him!!
Apollo says I’m 2 days free of any pony sass/shenanigans 🤣😝
Let him go around on the ground poles, to try and get him to build some muscle! Although he was trying all he could to dodge the poles 🤣
I’m just the most proud of this guy, he has relaxed a ton! He was very deserving of just a chill ride 🥰
Katelyn and Wildflower got a bit of a start yesterday! They worked at desensitizing and not crowding when leading!
Wildflower is so precious 🥰
To finish off Apollos ride, we decided to walk him around the property and see what he’d think! He gets An A!! He was very brave! Until he saw a metal chair and a pile of tires, lol! He worked through it seamlessly!
Good boy Apollo!
PM Me if interested in buying him!
Apollo was such a good noodle yesterday! Minimal pony sass from him. (iykyk) 🤣
I would say the biggest area of improvement for him is how much more patient he is! When we started he would not stand tied with out digging a giant hole 🕳️. He’s not perfect, but he stands much better! He also has improved with yielding the hindquarters, as he does much better with moving away from pressure, instead of moving toward it!
Naturally, Katelyn Martin and I had to put him through the test to see what he’d tolerate, since he is for sale! There’s one thing Apollo is not… and that is spooky! He is a brave pony!
Little stinker update.. 🫣😆 dodged about 5 kicks today. Not really wanting to stand tied, very protective over his bucket of food.
Worked at hustling those feet around, and some voice commands, WOAH (and actually woah wandering away when he’s not in the mood)yielding the hind quarters, backing, and some of the sending exercise on the fence since a certain little pony… we won’t name names (*cough* Apollo) wanted to just frolic around and disregard any kind of changing directions or any kind of direction at all 😆
On the plus side, we hustled around quite a bit and by the end we had a tired, very still pony 😴😴
Just so proud of this guy! Super good again today 🥰 very relaxed, and not sticky at all. But boy is he lazy in that canter 🤣 I bet Mallory Michele Long and I both squeeled in excitement when he finally yawned 3-4 times in a row. I bet Doc didn’t blink or let out a deep breath the first week lol.
Apollo says “ alright alright alright… I get it… bad ponies go to pony boot camp” 😆 he was a good pony today! he remembered the groundwork skills he learned yesterday (backing, yielding the hindquarters) and he rode like a good boy! Katelyn Martin fits him well I feel like! 🤓
It was ☀️ time! Got a solid work out in. did some round pen work so he remembered me cause it’s been a hot minute lol. Did some of our basic work, but also worked at picking up his feet and him being sprayed off for the first time 👀 I’d say he did pretty dang good!
