Benny is just finishing up his last 2 weeks of training and has easily become a favourite of mine 🤩
It’s been a busy month here with training!
Joni the pony arrived at the end of February to be started under saddle. A complete clean slate after being given the last 3 years to grow - here she is learning how to pick her rider up at the mounting block.
We are now booking into May, very limited spots and they fill up quick!
This one’s coming along so nicely I decided to hang onto him for a little while longer 😉
Just one spot left for training in March!!
Sometimes you have to get a little creative
Frank - a 3 year old roan gelding who is also for sale!
Pipsqueak has turned into a very nice little pony! He is for sale and his ad will be posted later this week!
Frank is a 3 year old QH gelding who came to me after unfortunately not being started in the right hands. He was pushed too hard too fast and never got a chance to think about what was being asked of him and just learned to react in a negative way. We have worked hard over the last month to teach him that he doesn’t have to react and gave him a minute to think about what was being asked of him.
He is now learning that he can be relaxed while I get on and off without having to react.
It was about time I got a training page up and going! So let’s put Pipsqueak in the spot light first!
Pip came with very little confidence and had a tendency to shut down when asked to do anything. He’s now going WJL calmly and willingly with tons of confidence. Here’s a quick look at his first time being asked to lope.
Pipsqueak will be looking for his new home at the end of October.
