Another Happy, Healthy OTTB: Knight Villian
Knight Villian is doing really well. He’s fat and happy, though his mane would probably make you laugh. It hangs down past the underside of his neck, by about two inches, and tail touches the ground. He has a harem of two geriatric mares, a paint quarter horse and a bay thoroughbred, and he is…

He did well both days and we have more three colored ribbons!
Gold Commander One
Went to see Goldie after work today. He is such a gentle horse. A tribute to Michelle’s training. He stands in cross ties, no problem. He likes the wash rack & bathes. Walked him around the perimeter of the outside arena, then let him off lead. He visited the horses in the adjacent paddocks, and…
Mr Inquisitive/Mr. Wonderful – One Year Later
I bought Mr. Inquisitive from you when he was 3 years old last December. He has been such a pleasure. I have been taking it slow with his training since I am in no hurry and he seemed to benefit from this approach. He is an excellent jumper-my trainer loves him.

You need to establish the “herd order”. You need to let the new horse know you are in charge and that the horse is not the leader – you are!

17 Hands and Still Growing!
Fast Commander is great though and seems to retain everything despite erratic schedules. He has jumped up to 3ft in lessons. He has really become more coordinated & athletic as he has matured, and he has gotten quite good in his lateral work. Anywhere we go, someone asks, “How big is he?” (17HH & still all legs.) He’s a pleasure to ride & I think he has a ton of talent. Read More . . .
