OTTB Gold’s Anatomy Excels at Natural Horsemanship Clinic
This past weekend Laura’s Pony Club had a three day Karen Scholl natural horsemanship clinic and Laura took Goldie. The horses had to wear hula hoops and balloons, walk over tarps and have them pulled over the top of their heads. They eventually were riding around with a halter and lead rope with a huge moving pink balloon blowing around in the middle of the arena while Karen cracked a whip. Goldie was a star!!! No one could believe he is a five year old Thoroughbred off the track, he handled everything so well.

OTTB “Sully’s” Sunny Attitude Marvels All
“Sullivan” is finally looking like a grey! His coat has darkened considerably since he has been on night turnout during the summer months. I’m hoping he will keep his black points. He has two pasture buddies, a large retired, carriage pulling draft and another grey. The grey is the same age as “Sully” so it…
Confident Thoroughbred Checks out Giant Slide
Well, you and Barry never are ones to pass up a training opportunity. So on Friday when I was out and saw the inflatable slide going up at the school next door, I knew I was in for an interesting day. Loverboy watched casually as…
Schooling Shows and New Digs for Cadence
In December we competed in a schooling show, which was very good. We made our First level debut with scores in the 60’s. In March, we rode in another show. We rode Training Four and First One and Two. Scores were not the greatest because we were having an off day.
