How to Give your Horse Treats

Training

Welcome back Here’s a story about how people’s perception of horses can be so drastically different.

So, she called animal control and told them that she felt that these new horses weren’t being taken […]

Are you actually saying what you think you’re saying?

Training

As a follow up from last week’s blog, I talked about my mind thinking I was doing one thing but seeing that my body was actually doing something else. I wonder how many times we do that? Think one thing but do another without knowing it. Well let’s talk about that for a bit. Did […]

Just Having A Ball!

Training

I can’t tell you how surprised and appreciative I was with the outpouring of emotional support that I received from so many of you, my readers and virtual friends. It was very hard for me to put that last email out and I was a bit afraid of how it would be received. I didn’t […]
