🐓 10 Things Horses Remember

1ļøāƒ£ The times you pushed them through when they hesitated.
2ļøāƒ£ The tone that told them you were in a hurry.
3ļøāƒ£ The day they said no and you called it disobedience.
4ļøāƒ£ The moments they tried to slow you down and you missed it.
5ļøāƒ£ The first time you stopped reaching for control and allowed instead.
6ļøāƒ£ The way your hands softened when you started to listen.
7ļøāƒ£ The day you allowed them to be who they are.
8ļøāƒ£ The walk where you matched their pace instead of making them match yours.
9ļøāƒ£ The pause you took before reacting.
šŸ”Ÿ The relief they felt when you didn’t make them pay for saying no.

šŸ¤ Horses don’t hold grudges.
They recognise intention.
They know if you’re there to understand them, or to get what you want.
They feel whether your actions serve them or serve you.
And they know the difference instantly.

šŸ’¬ No one trusts someone whose motives are self-serving — horses are no different.
Trust begins when your intention changes.
That’s when they start to believe you.

✨ If this speaks to you, share it — not as an idea, but as a commitment to keep doing better for them.

This little fella had his 6th ride and headed home for the winter to grow 🪓 I couldn’t be happier with his short introduction to being a broke horse.

October marks 1 year since I accepted the first client horses at our home here in Alvord, Texas… As I reflect on this, I can’t help but think of where it all began. Over the next few weeks I’m going to dive into the VERY start of my journey with horses!

It would only be fitting for week 1 to begin with my #1 influence. I didn’t grow up around horses, I actually spent my early childhood in Hawaii, but I can remember my grandfather coming to visit.

A lifelong horseman, he started out on English horses at a nearby stable. It wasn’t long before the call of the horse led him away from New York to start rodeoing at the age of 13. Later, he trained his paint roping horse to cut and the rest was history! What a thrilling sport it is! He truly made his way from coast to coast working with horses, training under others and on his own. Eventually settling in Texas, he continued with young horses and cutters until shortly before we moved here. Horses continue to be a part of his life to this day and I know he’s only a phone call away whenever I’m at the end of my rope! Listening to him recall the adventures he has had - from working the feedlot to doing western movie scenes - is always a time I look forward to. I’m incredibly thankful for all he has taught me and continues to teach me as I try to make my own way in this industry.

Look at that WALK! So thrilled with how forward and relaxed Maggie is getting šŸ’ž When their mind is in the right place, their movement (and thus athletic ability) can be too.

ā€œLeaderā€ Language—And What It Can Hide
ā €
We hear it often in the horse world:
šŸ—£ ā€œBe the leader.ā€
šŸ—£ ā€œShow them who’s boss.ā€
šŸ—£ ā€œMake them respect you.ā€
ā €
But what kind of leadership are we talking about?
Too often, that word becomes a disguise for control—an excuse for dominance, pressure, or shutting down resistance in the name of ā€œclarity.ā€
ā €
What if leadership didn’t mean getting your way, but being worthy of trust?
ā €
Real leadership doesn’t demand submission.
It models calm.
It holds space.
It listens, adjusts, and takes responsibility for safety—without needing to overpower.
ā €
Let’s redefine ā€œleaderā€ to mean:
šŸ¤ Trustworthy presence
🧭 Emotional steadiness
🌿 Mutual regulation
🐓 Willingness to listen
ā €
Because the strongest leaders aren’t the loudest.
They’re the ones others want to follow—freely.
ā €
✨ What if your horse didn’t need to be ā€œput in their placeā€ā€¦
and instead, found peace in yours?

Quite possibly the  #1 skill for any young horse to learn: standing tied. SO much can be learned from this simple task!

Will I lope a horse on the first ride? Absolutely. Will I spend a week walking around bareback on a broke horse? You bet. We have got to start looking at the horse as an individual and allowing training to be flexible if we hope to truly do right by them. I’m thrilled with how Maggie rode today - we had a nice forward walk, she’s more comfortable with me riding like a sack of potatoes, and I think we put a positive experience in the books. It’s in the little things that we prepare them for the big things and I know that, at this moment, she needs me to pause and not push while she works through some self-regulation.

Good looking pasture ornament there šŸ˜‚ We’re not 100% but he does seem to be feeling a little better this weekend. Thank you SO much to everyone for being flexible with lessons while we figure out what’s been bothering the poor guy. I keep telling him he’s too young to retire!

If you watched this colt’s first ride, you may have noticed I had to use my rein to get him into the lope. Just because I’ve started riding a horse doesn’t mean I’ll abandon groundwork. There are a few tools we can teach or improve on the ground that are super helpful under saddle - like a solid lope cue. We needed a little more practice with this so that the ā€œaskā€ is clear while we build an understanding of moving off my leg under saddle.

I haven’t taken much video lately, as I’ve been flying solo a lot, but a ton of progress made this week - first ride for this colt and he was nice and quiet. A handful more rides to get him confidently moving out and turning around a little, then he’ll go back to the pasture to grow.

The SWEETEST little yearling filly just arrived over the weekend to gain some new groundwork skills ā¤ļø she was an absolute superstar today for her third session. There are a lot of basic skills we can work on now that will make ā€œtrainingā€ a lot easier for her later on.
