Changing horses, as a way for a rider to move forward, "upwards and onwards", can be either a new beginning, or just same old, same old. Because if the rider do...esn't change as well, if the rider uses the same tactics that didn't make the prior horse a success story, why is it likely that this new match up will be any better? I have found, through many years of watching others, and trying myself, that there are basically three areas of change. Physical change---The rider becomes stronger, fitter, more agile, more able to ride well. Mental change---The rider, through study, reading, videos, lessons, has learned more about training and riding. Emotional change---The rider has become more patient, more empathetic, more willing to be calmly consistent. Some riders grow, some regress, and some stay about the same, and the new horse will usually be a mirror of that. If we want the new horse to be a better beginning, and not just a new beginning, look inwards. Ask the hardest questions----Have I made meaningful change? Am I willing to make meaningful change? It is more about us than it is about our horses.

And thats a wrap! Thanks to @tylerhinchey hard work, all our 2020 hay is baled and ready to stack in the barn!

Hard to believe it's been 8 years since we started!

A little throwback for this thank you post! As many of you know Beetle's owner Kellianne has entrusted us with Beetle's care for many years now. What some of you may not know, is that Kellianne was one of my coaches growing up. All those years ago, Kellianne gave me the opportunity to use Beetle and teach Kaylee how to ride. Beetle & Kellianne kick started my coaching career and Kaylee's riding career. Needless to say Beetle has been an influential part of many riders eque...strians careers Thank you to Kellianne for your donation to Beetle for the month of May! #adk #sponsoraschoolie #somuchsupport #atripdownmemorylane
