It’s a little tough to do my job with retired stallion next door. 🤦♀️
It’s absolutely true that all barns have inner and outer beauty, but some have a little more outer beauty than others. 😍

This young man almost laid down multiple times during his session! I tried to capture it on camera but failed, thought this was pretty cute, however. Stay happy, horsies. 💝🐴💝

An always necessary shout out to my full time summer assistant/daughter, Marlie. Marlie, you are the most patient and incredible little helper. Thank you for spending your summers helping me. The Woodside shows go smoothly in large part due to you. 💝

The air is quickly changing.
Thanks again to Starwood Equine Veterinary Services, Inc., for this handy visual.
I’m so proud to work shoulder to shoulder with so many incredible people in this industry. It’s a really really tough industry and not so much for the reasons many clients assume but more so, for reasons like these:
This is a helpful image when discussing "severe" arthritis in a fetlock.
Incredible visual.
I’m beyond thrilled to be back at one of my favorite venues, The Horse Park at Woodside. I have 1 opening left this week and please contact me if you need horses seen next week.

Every day brings new challenges... like dealing with this guy, applying for the job of assistant bodyworker, a position for which I am not currently hiring. Please give us some space pal. 🤷♀️
It’s been a while since I’ve posted some releases, so here’s a good one from today. PSA, it’s actually really hard to do this while actually working on a horse. As soon as you takes your hands off of them, they stop releasing.
Want a good tip for injury prevention? Spend more time working on questionable terrain. This article applies to the Hunter/Jumper world too. "So many horses never go on rough ground as they are so often on an arena or prepared ground. As a result of this practice, soon their natural elastic and instinctive brilliance at handling all types of irregularities without straining themselves, or falling over, will be evolved out of them." https://eventingnation.com/improving-your-cross-country-by-crossing-the-country/?fbclid=IwAR3I7OIJ_xLDEgSxP8N2M7x3b-eaPVPmMlaL5EiBIq6fj5NenDu8cu-Soz4

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this here but my daughter, Marlie, is now making and selling horse cookies to help fund her University education.
I’m dying because it’s a tad difficult to work on horses after spending an early morning helping Marlie bake cookies. All of the horses could focus on nothing but the smell of Marlie’s cookies. 😂

When it’s crazy hair and clothes day at school in the afternoon, but it’s bring your kid to work day in the morning. 🤦♀️

Call me a cynic---you'd be right---but when I read about these "horsemanship clinics" in Wellington, for these kids who probably have not spent many hours mopping the tackroom floor, and they make a big deal out of teaching them "horse care skills," that any card carrying barn rat already knew by age 12, I think that the moment the clinic is over, most of those kids hand their horses back to their grooms.
And that right there, not insisting those horse show kids do consistently the sort of things that barn rat kids, Pony Club kids, get MADE to do, has got to be a structural weakness in the system.
Parents who think that making life easier for their children is a good thing don't get what creates a hard ass athlete.
You want to be in the same league as a rider as those kids who grew up scrappy? Get scrappy. Don't let your parents turn you soft. They aren't doing you any favors---
Happy moment of release on repeat.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m a lucky lady to have this girl as my constant companion. She’s actually become a really good assistant. Should any of my clients like Marlie to write up session notes instead of me, let me know because she’s dying to use my highlighter and red pen. 🤓

I’m thinking the “jump” might need some bodywork after this. 🤯
