I played on Trigger today. We did some trick riding and some jumping and just running around all ba****ck and bridleless of course!

I worked Flower out in the pasture today with her sister and she got to work on staying focused while her sister ran around. It was great for her! We did a lot of lunge circles and worked on having her not pull away. We found a tree stump and I sent her to stand on it and loved the effort she gave. Things like that challenge their minds so I love to find something out of the ordinary to do with them.

Chase rode well today. He was much softer, moved forward well, and was relaxed. We did lots of trot and canter work.

Remi and I had a moonlight ride after lessons were over. She did pretty well. We kept working on keeping her haunches in line and not letting them go sideways and have her whole body follow. We only had a little issue with it and otherwise she kept pretty straight.

Chase worked hard this afternoon. He was really wanting to go so we slowed down and focused on forward and not fast and then worked on his canter transitions. He was struggling with the left lead canter when asked on the straight away and kept tensing up so we worked on relaxing and picking it up. Once he was soft and focused he did great.

Remi and I did her session in the round pen today. We started with some lunging and did a bit of liberty work. I then rode her around the pen in a neck rope and worked on having her move off of leg pressure and seat. She did an excellent job with it!

Trig is a good looking man and rode fantastic tonight. I’m super proud of how he’s come along! We worked on collecting the canter and smaller circles. One day we may even turn it into a pirouette. His lead changes were a lot better and his walk/jog work was just fantastic.

Flower got some practice standing quietly while I did her mane. She worked well also with her lunging although had to get a lot of energy out before she was totally focused. She then got a bath and is getting better about standing but still doesn’t love it. She went and rolled as soon as she was let loose😂.

Trig did so nice tonight! We rode in the moonlight to avoid the heat and worked on some trot to stops and then his lope and lead changes. He was excellent. His canter was super collected and the lead changes were clean!

Remi had a much better ride tonight. I rode her in the pasture so she’d have more room to move. She did pretty good overall. We had a bit of an issue with her losing her haunches sideways but I got her a bit better with moving them back into alignment off leg cue. We played around with the barrels and also with changing her speed within the gaits.

Freddie is just doing amazing. We kept on with our forward movement and added in more circles and changes of direction along with it. He handled it all beautifully.

Chase was excellent today! He’s really starting to hold himself better in all of his gaits it’s super nice at the canter. He was a bit forward and kept thinking he needed to speed up but once he figured out I wanted him to stay he held it so nicely.

From yesterday


Remi and I rode with some friends. She had a bit of an attitude and started slinging her head and dancing sideways like she did on the trail the day before. I’m glad she showed it in the arena so that we could work through. I let her move and realize she could go forward and wasn’t trapped. She quieted down a bit but I can tell it’s gonna take several rides to get her through it. Other than that she rode super nice!

Bert got to go on the trail ride too and took great care of his rider and enjoyed his adventure!

Remi got to have her first haul and trail ride today since I brought her home! She started off very happy and forward. We led the way - whether or not we knew where we were going - and she was pretty solid. We played around a little in an opening and then continued our ride in the rear. This was not something she enjoyed and we spent the rest of the ride trying to go forward and not run. She really liked to go sideways into the tree line and start throwing a fit and kept jogging off and throwing her head. Out in the open she was alright but back in the woods and she started up again. I wasn’t exactly in a situation to work her much on it but as soon as I could I let her start moving her feet. We did a little on the trail and then out in the pasture when she sped up heading back. I let her trot circles until she realized she could relax and stand. We stood around for a long time before ending our ride. Overall it was a great first outing! She just gets anxious when she gets held back and can’t go. We’ve worked through a lot of that in the arena but still have more to do.

Freddie did excellent tonight! He was forward right from the get go and didn’t lean on my leg. He offered the canter immediately and held it for almost two laps. I love the willingness on this horse. We quit early since he was doing so nicely!

I was thinking earlier today about how grateful I am to spend so much time doing what I love and growing as a rider. I thank God regularly for all the opportunities I have been given. When I was putting videos together today of all the fun I’ve had I found this song and had to use it. I will keep counting my blessings knowing I can’t count that high.

Fall trail rides are the best. Leaves crunching under foot, cool weather, lots of pretty colors. #trigger #fall #lovewhatido #horses #trailride

I’m always grateful everytime I step foot in the saddle but every now and then as I ride I feel the pure joy I felt as a kid as I ride around. No worries as to if my horse is performing right or if my equitation is at its best, just the pure joy of sitting on a horse.

Every liberty horse is going to leave at some point. It’s just a fact. It doesn’t matter that they’ve left what matters is how you react and how you ask them to come back. Trigger and I decided to up the liberty challenge by going out in the 65 acre pasture. He knew he was free and could decide just how long to stay with me. He had super high spirits as he danced around and looked at everything in new eyes now that he was at liberty. Eventually the energy got to him and he took off running and bucking. I watched him go laughing and then went to find him. This is how he came back. He was hanging out near his buddies and as soon as he saw me calling he came running. I’m glad he’s enjoying himself!

I decided to spend 10 minutes with Walker this morning to teach him how to do the reverse-reverse change of direction. This is where I ask him to reverse his direction away from me and then come back to me. Why is it a complicated trick? Because you give your horse permission to turn away from you and they may decide to keep going. I always start on the line and spend a while teaching them that way. The line helps with guiding them so they don’t get confused about where you’re sending them. Walker spent about 5 minutes on the line and I had to try at liberty. As you can see we need a little more practice because he’s a touch confused without his guide line but overall not bad!

I am enjoying getting back to working my boys at liberty! And aren’t they just awesome together! I put them in the small paddock today to start with some light liberty work and they did great. Trigger stayed with me the entire time, Walker wandered off once but came back quickly. They struggle when they’re on the outside and can’t see me as well and with pushing each other to get closer to me. We worked on some walk and trot circles, reverses, and ended with the stop cue and calling them both to me. Watch below and let me know what you think!

Loping around bridleless on the best boy!

Trigger Liberty Work July 11, 2022

Trigger and I took a break from liberty to focus on training undersaddle. It’s time to get back to playing and having some fun! Don’t y’all wish your horse was as cool as mine?😜

I am so proud of these boys! It’s been at least a month since we worked together and probably a year before that. And they came out like champions and we even kicked things up a notch into a jog! Love love love these horses for putting up with me!
