Winter fun ❄️
Some fun in the snow with the best ponies!
A before and after!
This is Millie, a paint mare I’ve been working with since summer. When I started with Millie she was a super fearful and reactive mare, scared of her own shadow. Things as simple as standing on the cross ties to be groomed was a task. She was unable to stay in a stall and had only had bad experiences with attempt to back her.
I began working with her and brought her back to just ground work and getting her more comfortable in her own skin! Once we had accomplished some basic ground work and got more desensitized towards things, I started her back under saddle. She excelled quickly, with her new understanding of the world. I can now say Millie is going walk, trot, canter under saddle and even went for a hack down the road! She ground ties and will happy stay in a stall for hours.
Millie will continue her training with myself and her family who is learning all the ropes of owning a green horse. It is so nice to be able to help a horse and her people learn to be one with each other and reach their goals!
