Been taking advantage of the nice weather!

Had a big snowstorm here. Somehow River’s feet ended up getting a ton of snow balls! Got her bimonthly hoof trim and warmed up in the barn to melt those away!

It has taken a long time to build her trust. So happy with her progress. It has been a busy summer. Looking forward to working with her through the fall.

Look who was able to be caught again! Think she just wanted to have her bug bites scratched.

Someone was not happy about wearing a bridle for the first time.

Out for a short walk

Haven’t posted much this week so far. Been very busy with work but more importantly RIDING!

Starting to get the whole ‘Humans=treats’ thing!

Into the dry lot with the halter on. Will keep working with her to get her wanting to be caught.

29/05/2020

River was playing hard to catch last week, so back to wearing the halter and in a smaller area for remedial training this week. Here she is with Manny, one of the Thoroughbred horses relaxing.

River braved crossing the highway with me. She wasn't sure about the white line on the side of the road but once she stepped over she was happy again.

Out hand-grazing the Clydesdale mares this weekend.

27/05/2020

Here's to summer rains! The last few years been drought years and our pasture could certainly use the moisture.

26/05/2020

River is not my first Clydesdale. She lives with Queeny a 22 year old clyde mare who will also be featured on this page.

25/05/2020

Through the summer I will be highlighting the special horses out at the farm. This sweet mare is another of my mares. More will be coming on her soon! Check out the album The Whole Zoo for more!

Hi! With all the craziness this summer, all the cancelled events. I decided to get a new project horse to train for the summer. Her name is River, she is a 16.2 hh Clydesdale broodmare. I'll also post photos of the other horses and will try to update very regularly. If anyone has horse questions I'd be happy to answer them! Hope everyone is having a great summer. I promise to post lots of cute photos! =)

First day with River. This is us when we first got home. She had a 3 hour ride but she was a little bit nervous about loading in the trailer but she did and she fit! May 14, 2020.
