Jayden debuted with Caspian under saddle in the Open English Walk Trot.
They received a 💛 3rd out of 9!
Jackpot English walk trot… They didn’t place.

We LOVE Caspian. He is sassy, SMART, handsome, tries whatever you point him towards and takes the best care of Jayden. What more could you as for?!

SOLD!
Through no fault of his own. (He is not on our property. And I have not seen him since he was sold 6yrs ago). He is one of our babies so we would like to make sure he gets a 5* home. Owner said she will keep him if she can’t find the right home for him.

MORE INFO is in his album!
His owner needs to sell him due to her health issues and not due to anything with Olaf.
Located in Maryland
INFO from his owner:
*2014 gelding
*13.1 hh
*extensive ground work
*worked him on obstacles
*has some clicker training with him which he absolutely LOVED and did great with.
*some liberty work with him and he did really well because he really listens to your body language and voice.
*rode him in a snaffle bit
*mostly rode him in western saddle but did put a dressage saddle on him a few times.
*I was just starting to do more riding with him and then I got injured.
*He remembers everything and he listens real well and always tries and is respectful.
*He is so smart and sensitive and picks the training up really easy.
*He doesn't have any problem leaving the other horses or the barn area.
*doesn't crib
*really good about picking up feet. he will actually pick his feet up on his own as I reach down for them.

SERIOUS inquiries only. Owner is not on FB, so I will put potential buyers in contact with her.

Jada got Pampered this this week. We are SO thankful for Kaylie at Pampered Ponies Therapies. Jada came down with Lymes last fall. It hit her hard. It has been a really rough time for my girl since then. We have her Lymes under control, just trying to keep weight and muscle on her. So we took her to Kaylie where Jada got to swim and get magnawaved. She REALLY enjoys the water! Just one week and I see a vast improvement in her topline and her chest.

Thank you for the updates, the pics and everything you did for our Jada!! We are so impressed.

We are SOOO thankful for all the work Pampered Ponies Therapies has done for our horses. Love that Kaylie is always working so hard to learn more. We trust the best with our babies!!
Pampered Ponies Therapies

For the love of your animals, please make sure who you’re hiring for any body work is licensed, certified, and insured.

You wouldn’t take your horse/dog to someone who shadowed a vet a few times and now claims to be a Veterinarian, would you? It’s the same with your body worker.

Ask questions about their credentials.
Ask them where they went to school and did their training.
Ask them if they have insurance, God forbid something happened while they work on your animal.

Just because someone can afford a tool/device, doesn't mean they know how to properly use it.

Two years ago, I proudly completed my Equine Rehabilitation Certification.
Through the program, I learned
-a team approach to equine rehabilitation (It take a team to properly rehab a horse. Bodyworker, Vet, farrier, Chiro, ect.)
-which conditions are appropriate for physical therapy (so therapies can make specific injuries or conditions worse)
-which conditions are appropriate for physical therapy and neurologic conditions (some therapies can make specific injuries or conditions worse)
-Therapeutic modalities and mechanisms of action (like the water treadmill, vibration therapy, shockwave therapy, ect.)
-the body's response to injury and healing of tendons and ligaments
-reasonable time frames for treatment, when to begin and frequency
-Methods of referral and optimal communication between professionals

The program counted as continued education for my Veterinary Technician license. It was a great certification to add on top of my Equine massage certification and MagnaWave PEMF certification. I strive to continue to learn and expand my knowledge to provide the best possible care to my clients.

Jada had a horrible winter. I know we are not out of the woods, but the past couple days she seems to be feeling like her old sassy self. Sassy as in this 21 yr old was BUCKING and cantering around the arena. 🥰 Her big trot was out! Jada still has that amazing presence. She is the best.
This mare is one in a million. Thank you God for everyday I have with her. 🙏🏻

I love spending time with the horses. This weekend we ponied Kyra off Caspian. Jayden rode Kyra and Jenni was on Caspian. Building confidence for Jayden and Kyra. So very thankful!
PS… It was really “fun” trying to get a pic like this. So don’t mind the goofy angle. 🤣

Huge day for Hardenberg today. We attended the Ohio keuring.

🌟2 yr old stallion Rowan fan Hardenberg was FORCE in the arena. He looked AMAZING. congrats to his owner Terie Overbey on earning 1st premie AND Champion in his class. We are SO proud. Hopefully get pics soon!! I was too busy taking video.

🤍Our 4 yr old mare Kyra fan Hardenberg moved to the studbook and received 3rd premie. She looked gorgeous and moved like a dream. She has earned some time off. We are so excited to be bringing our girl home.

We got to meet a lot of amazing people and see some GORGEOUS Friesians. So thankful for the Friesian community.

So thankful for Pampered Ponies Therapies for spoiling our crew. Caspian and Jada both were magnawaved. Bad mom forgot to get a pic of Jada. But you can see Caspian LOVED it!!

Congrats to Nate and Corah on their gorgeous Janneke earning her Ster status yesterday! We could not be more proud. She looks stunning!! Please give her lots of love from us. Miss this sweet girl, but we are so thankful she is in such great hands. 🎉🎉
I’m SO not crying, your crying!! 😭😍🙏🏻 Ok… So I cried, but I can’t explain how amazing it is to see one of the foals you spent HOURS pouring over numbers trying to decide which stallion will improve on your mare. Then 11 LONG months waiting. And then she was here! Now just look at her.
Congrats again Nate and Corah! So very thankful!!
