When you're working with your horse on any task or exercise or movement, be it a new skill or something they have done many times, it can be really easy to get stuck in the idea of "doing the thing" and lose awareness of the idea that you're actually trying to help the horse to understand/respond/do. We get fixated on the idea of doing the thing, rather than helping the horse understand how to do the thing for us.

Can we be peripherally aware of the goals, exercises, or tasks, while being primarily aware of the horse's understanding, confidence, and relaxation? Because THAT'S where real education and development lives.

Many owners (and hoof care professionals) struggle with horses of all ages that don't stand quietly or confidently to have their feet trimmed and shod. This often results in frustration (from everyone involved) and sometimes even injury - and it just doesn't have to be this way!

Through this mini course, we are going to help you unlock the keys to successful and safe leg handling so that each visit from the farrier is better and better. Whether your horse is a foal, a feral horse that's never had their legs handled before, or they are an older horse that still struggles each time the farrier comes around, this course will make leg handling a simple, positive experience for all involved!

It's not what we do once in a while that shapes our horsemanship. It's what we do consistently.

🔥⭐️ YIKES! Well, after 15 years of running my original horsemanship page, and building an audience of 30k+ folks, I've run into a hurdle of social media and lost access to the original page.... so, like "restarting" a horse, it's time to start back at the basics!

🔥 Please visit and like/follow the NEW page Patrick King Horsemanship & Dressage to stay up to date and in touch!

THANKS GANG! ** I'm sharing again in Instagram for anyone who hasn't seen the original post. Sometimes these posts get automatically shared with the original page on Facebook - so my fingers are crossed that it happens again with this one!

Dirty water doesn't stop plants from growing... so don't let negative words stop your progress.

This seems to be an important thing to keep in mind these days, with so much negativity in social media discussion groups and post comments. It also makes me think of the quote from Eleanor Roosevelt, "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."

⭐️ Let's make this a thread of positivity!

Share in the comments a quote or thought that uplifts you when you need it most. Maybe there's someone else who needs to read it right now - you could make a difference in their day.
