Friday Farm Update: Before Bluey & Bingo settle down for their long winter’s nap 😴 we trimmed their hooves.

Trimming hooves regularly promotes proper hoof growth and ensures the hoof can circulate air to reduce bacteria that could otherwise result in hoof rot. 🐐❤️🐐

This week we started a four week custom Leadership Women’s Program. Each session we identify and develop the Cs of leadership with the ponies as our partners. This week was about being calm, connected, and confident.

During our reflection time the women further identified the importance of authenticity, trust, and that it’s ok to redirect. We can’t wait to see what the ponies teach us next week!

Friday Farm Update: Worm check! Bluey & Bingo were checked for worms as part of their fall check-up. We don’t deworm the goats unnecessarily as doing so can result in resistance to the medication. They had nice rosy eyelids, healthy coats, and no coughs - all signs that worms are not present! 🐐❤️🐐

The results are in! These young horse whisperers competed in the International Horse Agility competition and they were incredible! They showed such great positive horsemanship skills. Both have rosettes coming from the International Horse Agility Club in the UK! 🐴🥇

Poppies and the days leading up to Remembrance Day hold close in my heart. My Dad fought at the end of WWII as a member of the British Tank Regiment. He was 17.

Friday Farm Update: Bingo & Bluey just received their yearly vaccinations. These vaccinations will protect them against 6 major types of clostridial diseases. Both goats were so good and the breeder commented on how incredibly social Bingo & Bluey were. If you have met these two characters, then you know they have personality-plus! 🐐❤️🐐

November 2nd was Poppy’s “Gotcha Day”. Poppy arrived as a two-year old filly 12 years ago. She has taught me and many others so much about relationships, connection, parenting, co-regulation, choice and other life skills, and has brought so many beautiful friends into my life whom I never would have met without her. She is truly my heart-pony ❤️🐴❤️
