We are a group of trainers working with equines (and other animals) in Scotland. We enjoy helping people and equines communicate effectively with one another, helping understand why a horse, donkey, pony or mule needs to say "no", and how to help work towards an enthusiastic "yes", in a force free and mutually enjoyable way. We are happy to work to teach new and useful behaviours, including touch

acceptance, recall, grooming, following and leading, leg and foot handling and care, acceptance of veterinary procedures and day to day husbandry behaviours such as fly spray, washing/hosing, clipping, fly masks, rugs, muzzle acceptance and headcollar acceptance. We can help with equines who are wary and fearful, showing you how to change their emotions so that they approach readily and are able to show pleasure and affection around their human carers. We can also work on improving previously trained behaviours so that both human and equine are communicating well - this may include helping the equine enjoy exercise programmes and movement, improving responsiveness to groundwork cues, ridden cues and behaviours such as approaching and standing at the mounting block and enjoyable in-hand work. We can assist with changing how your equine feels about moving away from their friends - we understand how to change the emotions around separation so that your equine can tolerate and even enjoy periods of separation from their friends and companions. Who are we? Dorothy Heffernan, Calpurnia Fox, Fionna McCallum and Suzi Ruby are the team behind PETS. Find out more about our areas of expertise and skills via the pinned post!

Dorothy here!
I'm just chatting with Kay Inkster Karen about the possibility of holding a two day *Clicker Camp" at Equine Unlimited on 4th and 5th July.

We would have horse agility, groundwork and ridden sessions. Possibly to bring your own horse or work with one of Karen's. Spectator places also available. Sessions on BitFree riding, equine enrichment, equine behaviour.

Camp out under the stars with BBQ, equine pub quiz, and other fun activities (accommodation also available in nearby Dunkeld). Guest trainers and interactive sessions

This is to gauge interest, so please comment below if it's something you and your friends might come along to. Photo of donkey for Facebook photo tax and because meet the the donkeys (and mule) is always a highlight at Equine Unlimited!

What a great weekend! Suzi Ruby from PETS had so much fun being an honorary member of the Horse Play team! And lived her hobby horse dreams, scroll through the pics 😆

Nicky at Horse Play is doing an incredible job educating children, adults, horse owners, and professionals in how horses learn, experience the world, and communicate. We love how she involves horses in the teaching process in such horse-centered way 😍

It's a magical experience getting to spend time with her herd, find out more at Horse Play or https://horseplay.horse/
