We’ve probably tried every fly spray out there; and with 20 plus horses in our barn, we go through A LOT of it. Since we practically bathe in this stuff, who has an AMAZING homemade fly spray recipe without all of the extra chemicals and a better scent (horse safe essential oils maybe)?

There’s nothing better than a sweet mare with a big heart and a lot of try🤩

“We have almost forgotten how strange a thing it is that so huge and powerful and intelligent an animal as a horse should allow another, and far more feeble animal, to ride upon its back”

Great work with this team tonight; learning how to maintain focus with other horses and riders in the arena. Cameraman could use some improvement on catching the best moments, but we work with what we’ve got😅
