Standing tied for young horses is just as important as working them. They learned Patience and it’s OK to relax. With it being winter, I don’t work anybody until they’re super sweaty, just keep their muscles moving and their minds engaged so that way when it warms up, we’re ready to put some serious rides on them. #ranchlife #ranchhorse #horsetraining
West is such a good boy! #dogtraining #doglover #bluemerle #aussie #smartdog
Not only cleans their teeth but it also tires them out!
Well he recognized my voice and wagged his tail but he was high as a kite. We got to stay with West for the whole process (except right when they took the x rays) for his OFA Hip and Elbow. #australianshepherd #ofa #healthtesting
There’s a lot of groundwork that can be done that doesn’t get the horse too sweaty in the cold temps. Today we worked with Mojito on your end, some basic lunging of a walk and being comfortable with the flag, touching her #horsetraining #buckskin #quarterhorse
Kids helped remove the calf tags and all the ones we are planning on keeping got their big kid tags with new numbers! #cattleranch #ranchkids #teachemyoung
Ruth and Cal helped with todays training session. Puppies had to sit before they were pet. This will help teach them jumping on people won’t get them attention. Just look at those cute tails wag!! #akilas2024puppies #puppytraining #puppytrainingtips #aussies #australianshepherd #aussieswithtails
