We had to say our goodbyes to Slider our sweet “pigmy” barn goat. Slider gave hours of enjoyment to the camp kids many years ago. “Captain Slider Sparrow” as he would allow the girls to braid beads into his beard and proudly wear them all week 🏴‍☠️ He loved Popcorn and Hunny and He made friends with everyone that shared cereal with him. RIP old man. You sure lived a great long life with us at Shady Oaks Ranch❤️

Our recent supervisor … maybe he’s worth keeping around because we have the laziest barn cats ever!

So happy to see my two heart horses loving & enjoying their new retirement home❤️. Hard decisions always weigh heavy on your heart, but doing what’s best for those you love somehow makes the pain a bit easier to bare. Enjoy the trails and I look forward to our visits🙏🏻❤️(Ziggy & Dixie)

10 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BEING MARRIED TO AN EQUESTRIAN

1. expectation versus reality. You think you are getting all tight breeches, whips and long boots. What you get is big water proof coats. Straw in the hair and a strong whiff of Manure.

2.Time keeping. What you will learn is that the stables are a magical place with its own timezone ( clearly this is why I have never seen a clock in a stable ) She says she will only be an hour. She turns up 3 hours later. Without an apology. just saying the horse needed x y and z

3.Pecking Order. As a partner to a equine girl you have to learn and accept quickly that you are not her number one priority. That is her horse(s). Then any children. Followed by pets. you maybe lucky to be in 4th. But if she has riding mates 5th is what you get.

4. BEWARE. An invitation to the yard. Will not result in a roll in the hay. It will result in you doing odd jobs, Lifting heavy stuff, poo picking a field and generally getting muddy. It is strange that these jobs NEED to be done on that same day you are there. Dont get me start on watching ( in the cold ) her riding around in circles in the school. Then it’s photos ! She wants you to take photos while she rides , then she moans that the horses legs are in the wrong position!?! Well woman you’re the one riding the horse?? When I went to school it had tables and chairs and blackboards. It wasnt a big sandpit.

5.Language. She speaks another languge. Like the school there are other pit falls. Girth is not what you think it is. Centre line is not in tennis. Needs to take more weight behind.. ??? Apparently there is a difference between hay and straw. I think it has something to do with what the horse is allowed to poo on.... what is a stallion? what is a gelding? There are more hands than a showband......

6. Matchy Matchy. Apparently there is a benefit for having a outfit which matches the horses outfit .. I have not gone on holidays because there is a limited line saddle cloth bundle thing. Which costs the same as a weekend in Mallorca.

7. Dont think that you will be able to go on romantic weekends away, because it costs a bomb to have someone look after the horse. Apparently they cant just sit in a field. Who knew? If it’s show season you will be lucky to see your beloved. Or even worse she may drag you along. Make sure you have a good book and some ear plugs . I don’t know what’s worse , if it goes well she will go on and on if it went bad she will go on and on . So yeah definitely ear plugs and a nod every now and then .

8. My Car is now OUR car and is now smells like a stable. It is never clean and it full up with more stuff than a tack shop. I even found these odd brown things rolling around in the boot , they were carrots once apparently. Changing the tyre was ‘interesting’ ropes , leather straps, 5 pairs of boots emptied onto the side of the road .

9. Get used to doing the housework as when she gets back from the stables. (which she leaves emaculate) she is now too tired to help clean the house.

10.. Always remember they can control a 500 plus kilo animal with their thighs. SO learn quick or she will ‘rein you in )

Happy Valentine’s day
