Riding the Wind Equine

Advice from a trucker.
If this is how you trailer your horse on the drivers side, please stop it immediately. Yesterday made the 3rd time in recent years that I’ve had to put a semi in the ditch (maintained control, not wrecked) to keep from decapitating your equestrian friend with his head 3 1/2 ft. over the center line on a narrow road. Thank you!

Selling this lightly used 75” Mio All-In-One 0G Lite Turnout for $50.

I paid $65 a month ago but it’s a little snug on my mare so just bought a larger size and no need to keep this one around. She’s had it on two or three times and she’s very gentle on them. So no rips or tears.

An affordable turnout. 600D polyester waterproof outer, breathable to point of dripstrip. Fully integrated neck offering one weight from ears to tail, with double front closures for added security, front leg arches, cross surcingles and shine enhancing polyester lining.

Features:
* Fully integrated neck offering one weight from ears to tail
* Classic Front: secure closure sits align with the point of shoulder
* Double fastened for added security
* Front Leg arches: unique design to maintain freedom of movement
* Two cross surcingles
* 600D polyester waterproof outer, breathable to point of dripstrip

Love Equine Copper products!! All three of my personal horses have a sheet and it makes my grumpy red mare happy!

This may not be the time of year that you're out riding and training BUT accidents happen and your buddy may be experiencing some injuries from last season. Equine Copper is THE solution. Copper is a known metal that draws oxygen and helps increase circulation to sore muscles and even open wounds to assist with faster healing. This product is developed here in Great Falls locally by a Sports Therapist. Be confident that this is a product that will help your animal in the long "run". Message us here for more information.

Question: Is your horse anxious leaving other horses?

"Hello, Monty. I have a question about something my horse does that’s unexplainable and I would love to understand it. I have said a hundred times, if only I could ask Monty Roberts'. So here’s my question. While trail riding with others, my horse will not walk side by side with another and he will not pass another horse. If they slow down, he slows down. If they speed up, he goes with that. It’s so strange and frustrating. I cannot force him to pass someone no matter what I do. He came from a cattle ranch in northern New Mexico where he had a working job. His previous owner said he was out 6 days a week, 25 minutes a day until I bought him at age 6. My horse was very forward for a few years and I moved to Arizona with him where he is boarding with a herd. This strange behavior started then, which was 6 yrs ago. He’s now 16. Any feed back would be welcomed. It’s been very perplexing."

Love Monty Roberts! We can learn so much from our horses, remember to listen to them!

“Anybody can be a horse whisperer, as long as they are open to listening and learning. The language Equus is predictable, discernible and effective.” - Monty Roberts
