Hello all! I welcome you to my all-things-equine training blog. I am 23 yrs old and have begun my journey in hopes of one day becoming a well rounded horse trainer. Please follow me and enjoy the ride as I become a professional in the crazy industry of hunter jumpers, eventing and pleasure horses. I hope you will enjoy the tips and the stories!

Making Strides

Summer is in full swing and I cant believe it's been over 6 months since my last post! Where does the time go?!

A month back I had every intention to bring you an update on my new horse Roo. If you have been following my Facebook page you have been watching my journey rehabbing his back through chiropractic care. I was in full swing preparing him for a season of competition.

Roo had his first outing at Dave Minteer's. I was overjoyed with his calm mind as we worked through the obstacles we were setting up for a desensitizing clinic the following day. After playing around on the ground I took him for a short ride in which he was excellent.


A few weeks after, I was anxious for our first lesson with Carol Kozlowski. After a few uncalled for bucking bolting fits it was decided we should pursue where Roo was telling us he's uncomfortable.

I am still in the process of figuring out Roo's discomfort. I hope to have some answers soon and have my sweet Roo back on track!

On a more positive note, Roo's back has made a full rehab. Muscling took quite awhile but I am happy to say all of the muscles surrounding his back and neck are in wonderful shape! I have to say it was a bitter sweet day when I found out Roo was in such great shape Chiropractic wise but still hurting somewhere.




In other news Lollypop Farm hosted their first Obstacle clinic with Dave Minteer. I was very excited to help out with this event. It was a very successful day with many happy riders and horses! I am looking forward to future events at Lollypop Farm!














Saving the best new for last.... I have been working on a new logo for awhile and its finally making its debut!

I am so excited with Mobile Graphic's work! They brought together all my ideas while still honoring my original logo!


Although I have't been making the strides I had intended for this summer, we are always learning and moving forward! I am looking forward to getting answers and enjoying the rest of the summer!

Stay cool!
