Thoroughbreds can do
Wise Young Sage is AWESOME!
Wise Young Sage is AWESOME! Everywhere I go I feel like I’m with a celebrity. People literally stare at him with their jaws dropped all oohing and gooing over his beautiful floating trot & rocking horse canter. He has amazing potential to be competitive at the highest levels in eventing.

Votive Arrives at Her New Home in Vermont
I have to say Votive is the best horse ever. She unloaded and looked around as we walked for about an hour. Very calm but inquisitive on the surroundings. She has been really well behaved in the stall and walking. I have turned her out twice already in a round pen and she thought that…

Icy Event – New Home, New Friends, New “Freedoms”
Icy spent the night in the stall and cleaned up every bite of hay. I put him back in the same pasture this morning and put Coin in with him. They said hello and started eating grass like they’d been best friends forever. It was so nice. Thanks for helping get him to us (and…
Brett Gets a Close Shave
Brett’s only ‘hole’ has been head shyness–especially his ears. Joan and I have spent three years on this issue, slowly but consistently exposing him to more and more head/ear contact. I’ve ‘clicker trained’ him, and that’s how he learned to tolerate having his muzzle clipped–took me a good 3 months, but we got it done. The ears have been a much more challenging issue, as it took a full year until I could hold one, and it’s taken another year + to get to the point that I can grab an ear (gently) and he drops his head and turns it to me.
Luck of the Irish Morning Mist – New Home for this OTTB
It’s a done deal! I bought Irish (Irish Morning Mist)! He will be arriving in Maine on Sunday. I can’t wait to meet him! Luckily it is going to be in the 50’s for the next week, so he can adjust to the cold weather slowly. I will keep in touch as to our progress.…
WOOHOO!!!
WOOHOO!!! That about describes our day today. I attribute this to Kwinn’s feeling better. While he’s filled out and is generally looking better, you can see in his eyes that he’s feeling better. We had a good time riding today. Kwinn behaved well even when the mares in the field started galloping across the field.…
