Horse Thoughts and quotes

Dog washed, voice watched time to curl up on the sofa, while watching Planet Earth live and time for some horse thoughts

'To place your horse's need for you to let him leave his failing bod above your need to keep him with you... that... is the greatest and purest love.' This was said by Cynthia Garrett. (This quote really touched me because there comes a time where you need to say good bye and all though its hard it will be the best thing to do even though we know it will be hard).

'I've spent most of my life riding horses, the rest I've just wasted.' The author of this quote is unknown. (This quote made me smile because it made me think, if you aren't doing something that you enjoy then what's the point in doing it? Just a thought).

'A true horseman does not look at the horse with his eyes, he looks at his horse with his heart' unfortunately the author is this quote is also unknown. (I like this quote because its the truth of the matter, if we are just looking at a horse and seeing an animal, or a thing thats just there for us to ride its not fair on them! If you ask why here's why, horses have a heart and feelings too and should be respected, they help us out and provide a joy for us that we couldn't get from anyone else, so the least we can do in return is love them completely unconditionally). 


Just some thoughts for you to think about

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti

possible broken hand x3.

hiya guys well it's been a few days and I was planning on updating you all today. Unfortunately I won't be able to go in to as much detail as I want to because I am having problems typing because it looks like for the third time I have broken my hand again!  In the exact same place, how rubbish is that? But they can't tell me because it will not show up for another two weeks on an X-ray so at the minute it's back in a splint and I've got to go back to hospital in two weeks.  Well Saturday I got to ride Gatsby again. We have been working on getting him in to an outline more consistantly but it took me seeing Fiona riding Pumpkin Pie for me to know what it was that I needed to do for Gatsby to work properly in to an outline. We got some really good work in the walk and trot (I have got pictures) and slowly we are starting to get it in the canter as well but by the time we move on to canter I tend to feel quite tired and weak on my left side. We did an exercise th

Hello strangers!

 Wow it feels like a life time ago since I updated my blog let alone since I actually started first writing this blog. So many things have changed and I’ve kept thinking about restarting this but every time I think about doing it life gets in the way and before you know it I just haven’t done it.  So where do I start, how about with the big fella himself. My midnight magic is now 8! He has a heart of gold and after a particularly rough year is definitely coming out of the other side. Magic is a jumping lover and if you let him pick I think that’s all he’d ever do. He’s spent a lot of time working on his flat work which in the long run has really helped to develop his jumping. Last year magic suffered a horrible injury, he damaged his suspensory ligament on his front left leg and on the same leg damaged the collateral ligament that goes to his coffin joint, unfortunately for him he had a pretty bleak prognosis, with only a 30% of being even field sound. With a little bit of luck, blood,
