Everyone likes to talk about the harm caused when a horse is ridden behind the vertical... but have you ever wondered why?

One (of the many) problems with a BTV position is that encourages incorrect flexion in the neck. In a healthy horse, the head will flex up and down at the first cervical vertebrae. This bone is known as the atlas or C1.

In an effort to avoid excessive pressure caused by a harsh bit, rider or gadgets (especially draw reins) many horses will begin flexing at the 3rd vertebrae (C3). "Broken at the 3rd" creates incorrect movement throughout the body and will quickly lead to pain and damage. Once a horse begins moving in this manner, it is extremely hard for them to unlearn and they may continue this harmful posture even when at or above the vertical.

There is a difference between good contact & bad contact. Please pay attention to your horse & yourself when riding so you can be move forward and excel in whatever discipline you ride in!

Top line is so important, it’s something a lot of horses lose going into the winter or during winter! Remember it’s important to keep our equine athletes in shape. Even if it’s a 20 min ba****ck ride in the round pen or backing up a hill. Anything is better than nothing, you really wanna see those muscles raised above the spine like in #4!

I think janes telling her mom she wants to be a barrel horse! Lynette LaForest

This was janes first time ever really seeing a barrel pattern!!

13/08/2022

Got to go out and see Jane! One our 30 day horses from the summer of 2021! Jane and her owner Lynette LaForest are doing very well together. Jane has gotten huge compared to last summer, still sassy but definitely come a long way!

UPDATE!
Miss Phoenix, she came in for 90 days in the summer of 2021. She came unstarted and left ready to start her new journey, she’s been doing wonderful with her owner going on trail rides and loving life! Still hasn’t hit that growth spurt yet 😂 she’s still a little thing, but gotta love her big personality!

Miss jewel got picked up today, and I was sad to see her go but extremely happy with all her progress she made!
She came fearful of her rider, untrusting, spooky, and reactive. She left calm, relaxed, trusting! I doubted myself at the beginning not thinking she was gonna adjust but stayed persistent and eventually she realized that she actually really enjoys having a job and that a person on her back isn’t that scary!

I’m so happy to see her continue her training with Krista L Baxter and get some feedlot miles! Brandy Langevin is gonna have a wicked broke & smart horse come spring time!

Jewel looking good! Got her w/t/c pretty down pat id say. Now to start the fine tuning!

09/06/2022

Jewel is doing good! Couple ups and downs but she’s a smart cookie. And she will be for sale at the end of her 30 days, if anyone may be interested

Hey everyone, just wanted to do a quick update! We’re good to go & ready for the summer, we are accepting client horses again. Wanted to apologize to everyone that wanted to book over the winter and into the spring. I just wasn’t able to take on client horses as that time due to personal reasons.
But we’re ready for summer and to help you & your horses!

Booking for:
- starting
- miles & refreshers
- finishing
- problems & hiccups
Prices vary based on what your horse needs but they range from $850-$975 with discounts for multiple months booked! Horses must have negative coggins within 3 months & 4 way vaccine sorry for an inconvenience this may cause but can’t be to careful with how high EIA cases are getting.

Only her second day on the pattern! She did it one other day last month. She’s such a smart little paint!

Little Phoenix is almost done her 90 days and she has progressed magnificently. I’m so proud of her, and really excited to watch her and her owner grow together. This filly is definitely gonna be one to watch!

Saddle placement is very important, an ill fitting or sitting saddle can impair your horses movement more than you know!

So I'm putting this out there again as I see horses with saddle sitting on their shoulders. Not just the flap, but the tree. I know it might be how you were taught, or you think it goes there because its "how everyone else does it" but its wrong and damaging your horse's scapular cartilage. There is so much new evidence of saddles being too far forward causing damage and the thought process of "thats how its always done" is not acceptable. Lobotomy was thought to be good treatment for psych issues at one time too......just saying😉

Nothing nicer than a fresh arena to ride in!
