Morning thoughts. How much should you handle your babies? Does “desensitization” make the positive difference you think it does?

Icy morning, and it’s only supposed to get colder today!

A couple pictures from our adventures as of late!! Our days have been filled with putting softness and refinement on these c**ts in the arena and doing some big miles outside.
It’s funny how doing miles helps every horse in their own way. The quiet ones learn how to free up and move out better, and the sensitive nervous types learn how to settle and let down.
If you have any horses, c**ts, mules, or buffalo that need more refinement or to get started send us a message!

Throw back to the 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐋𝐋𝐂 c**t starting in Arizona last year. It was a great experience. I look forward to working with Trevor and Joci again. If you have the opportunity to buy horses or be part of their event I highly recommend it!

Are mules easier to train?

This fall has been a great one, getting to cover many miles on different mules and c**ts. Most of those miles I have had my current intern Faith along with me. She is a great help in the c**t starting pen! I have seen lots of growth in her confidence and ability to train different styles of horses. We have many more adventures we are yet to go on. Cheers Faith 🍻

What a whirlwind of a weekend! We got the mules out to the mountains a couple times going on some adventures. I have been carrying a bighorn sheep tag in my pocket for the last 5 years. Alberta is unique because it is one of the only places in the world you can buy a general sheep tag over the counter. Here a ram has to meet certain size requirements to harvest them, making buying a sheep tag easy but being successful very difficult. I did not expect it to happen this weekend but it did and man was it ever an amazing experience.

People often ask me how did you decide to ride a buffalo?
Well it all started when I was a kid, I saw a picture of an old cowboy dragging calves to a branding fire aboard a longhorn steer. I decided I was going to do that one day. As a young adult I bought an old team roping steer. I halter broke him and was riding him in two weeks. It all blossomed from there, I started performing at fairs and rodeos with him. And I did indeed drag calves at a few Brandings! I always tell people naturally the next step from riding a longhorn is a buffalo.
My longhorns name was Jasper. I had him from the time he was 2, till his 8 year old year. Last year while hauling to a fair he got injured and had to be put down. We had a great time together over the years traveling all over western Canada. One of our signature parts of the specialty act I did with him was to race all the kids. Jasper was one of the hardest, fastest running steers that his previous owners had. As I rode him he slowed down and so in our races the kids stood a good chance haha. One of the things I hold close to me to this day is in Jaspers last race my youngest two kids got to race him for the first time.
Cheers Jasper 🍻 may you live fat and happy in the pastures in the sky my friend.
