Boots! 🤩 Mikki is looking good in her Scoot Boots! She's ready to take on the trails in style (and comfort!)

This girl is doing great. Watch for us to go live and give you some updates Sunday around 6 pm!

She's been doing lots of lateral work, trail riding, and canter stuff.... and has a couple of field trips planned soon!

We just wrapped up 3 amazing clinic days with David Lichman and now looking ahead to the next clinic...

📢Patrick King this weekend!

Nobody loves a clinic more than I do, but I think 2 clinics in one week is a first, even for me 😅🥱

Auditors welcome, reach out to Laura for details and bring a chair and a lunch! Lessons run 8-5 both Sat and Sun.

Update!!: Huge thank you to Augusta Wott who sizes for Scoot Boots, and donated a pair of boots for Mikki. ❤️

needs a little help from her friends! I think that she would benefit greatly from a pair of scoot boots for trail riding. She is working towards the big atfo trainer meetup at Hocking Hills in July, and we are riding out a lot! She is sensitive on the rocky and hard surfaces and I think a pair of boots would make her so happy and comfortable!

Does anyone want to purchase her a pair sized exactly for her that she can take with her to her adoptive home? Or If you would like to contribute towards a pair that would help too! A pair of Scoot Boots costs $265.
Scoot Boots stay on well, hold up on trails, don't hold water or mud, and are pretty easy to deal with.

If anyone would like to help out please reach out and join Mikki's sponsor team!

Soon we will find out more about Mikki! A generous sponsor paid for a DNA test to determine what breeds Mikki is made of 🧐 We do know who her mom is, HOP Rikki and her adopter shared with me her DNA results. It will be fun to get the full picture soon! The hairs are plucked and will be in the mail tomorrow!

1st REQUIRED POST for

Look at this girl after just 5 weeks of consistent learning and practice!
Mikki is working on finding all of her gears and finding more straightness and mobility under saddle. She has a gait hidden in there and in developing her other gaits and getting her to engage her hind legs and come through her body we are finding glimmers of it! I use the trot a little bit with these horses to get their energy up, and then come back to working their walk and getting them to track up a little more. It all requires strength, which requires time and conditioning.
Mikki is making the obstacles look easy and I love that about her! 😍

She's a kind horse that enjoys her sessions and would love a person of her own to hit the trails with and continue to grow!

Please enjoy our video that shows a good recap of what she's been up to!
