Rebuild Shelter Structure

09/16/2025

Thank you for all of your support as we rebuild shelters for our horse partners.

At this time, we are looking for contractors in our area that have experience with horse shelters (specifically with wind ratings). We will be asking for quotes to build before winter. Please forward anyone you feel would be appropriate for this job. Thank you!

We were hit hard by the storm last night. Animals are all safe and we put pens back together. Unfortunately we lost numerous shelters that are not repairable. We will be looking for options to build secure shelters before winter (and ASAP). Any ideas are welcome!

“If You Don’t Ride or Train, What’s the Point?”
⠀
This question reflects how deeply conditioning runs in our culture—even in how we relate to horses.
We’ve been taught that horses must do something to be worth our time. That riding or training is the pinnacle of relationship.
⠀
But what if the point isn’t performance at all?
What if it’s presence?
⠀
Autonomous Horsemanship invites us to step off the pedestal of performance and into the quiet grace of simply being together.
⠀
🐴 It’s not about achieving, it’s about witnessing.
🤍 It’s not about molding the horse—it’s about meeting them.
✨ It’s not about goals. It’s about connection.
⠀
When nothing is asked, something sacred often arrives:
Trust.
Softness.
A shared breath.
⠀
Riding is optional. Relationship is the gift.
The most profound moments often happen when we stop trying to get somewhere—and start honoring where we are, together.

Did you know that learning how to pick a horse's feet helps teach problem solving, empathy, responsibility, communication, patience, persistence, and consistency? All of that, in one horsemanship skill.

The school year is just about here! I will be contacting families to see who is interested in programs this fall. Out of school availability will be limited as always (just not enough hours in the day). Also keep an eye out for our group program Stable Strengths (an awesome way to get your kid the horse interaction they want and benefit from). 🐴🌀🩵

It's Summertime! And while that means a lot of horsey fun, it also means more bugs! Help our horses through the fly season by donating today for fly mask replacement, fly boots for those that need them, and fly spray! Thank you everyone 🩵 www.venmo.com/tailsoftransformation
