🐓 GET GOOD HORSEMANSHIP TIP 15.
✨Knowing when to stop/quit asking is a skill in its own right. The moment your horse truly understands, even if it’s small - is often the best place to end. One clear try, acknowledged well, builds more confidence than pushing for five more repetitions. Stopping at the right time protects motivation. It tells the horse, ā€œThat was it. You found it.ā€ Progress doesn’t only come from doing more. It comes from recognising when enough has landed. It does not mean you cannot go and work/play/train with something else - it means you give that particular subject time to sink in. šŸ‘‰ Question: Where might you Get Good at ending a session sooner - instead of squeezing for more?

Thanks for this reminder. I definitely have a tendency to ask for more. I must be mindful of this! "You found it" - that's a really helpful way to think of it 🫶 It will also help me to know when to reward, rather than rewarding too early and then ending up giving too many treats, which, although I find treats helpful, I do know they distract Ronnie if I'm not careful how I use them šŸ™Š

@Zoë Coade I love how thinking of it as 'finding it' hints of it being a game of curiosity for the horse, seeking out the answer - real experiential learning 🤩
šŸ’› Benny Doesn’t Play With The Power Ball…
… He IS the Power Ball. ✨ Too funny not to share here 🤣 OMG that face šŸ˜­šŸ˜‚ Fully blown alter ego activated - releasing the beast. 🤭 It’s that same face when your inner gym bro takes over. Therapist: ā€œAnd when did this personality emerge?ā€ Me: ā€œThe day he met the Power Ball.ā€ 🤣🐓✨🫶 Got any funny pics of your fur babies? Drop them below šŸ‘‡

ā­ļø If My Horses Could Review Me…
Apparently they’ve been talking. 🫣 🐓 Lenny’s Review: ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œConsistent. Fair. Occasionally too many kisses on my nose.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œGood at moving my feet before asking me in. I respect that.ā€ ā­ļøā€œStill insists I don’t need to lick everything.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œUnderstands my brain. Lets me think. Doesn’t panic when I have opinions.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œStrong leadership. Clear boundaries. Would circle around again.ā€ šŸ¦„ Benjamin’s Review: ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œCalls me Prince. Accurate.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œSays I’m small. I am powerful.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œGood scratch placement. Appreciates my floof.ā€ ā­ļøā€œBack-breaker comment unnecessary.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā€œCalm after spooks. Returns me to safety quickly.ā€ ā­ļøā­ļøā€œVery invested in my shoulders and posture. Slightly obsessed.ā€ Alright…your turn. 🤣 What are your horses saying about you? 🐓✨🫶 P.S. Attached is a little vid of my kids saying hi yesterday during our first spring day and break in the rubbish weather - was 16 degrees 🄰

Ronnie's Review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Pockets filled with tasty treats all for me. Could be even more." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Responds with appropriate enthusiasm when I do something I think is clever." ⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Willing to hand feed me hay because I’m cute. Doesn't always pick out the sweetest bits though." ⭐⭐⭐ "Buys me more rugs than she has clothes. Not always appreciated." ⭐ "Insists on brushing my hair but I like it wild." ⭐⭐ "Can’t resist trying to rub my fluffy forehead. Not my favourite but it is fluffy so I forgive her sometimes." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Very lickable hands." ⭐⭐ "Not as good at scratchies as Charlie (husband) but scratchies is scratchies so OK."

Draw your horse- connection🐓
I did a self- exercise once around just being, seeing, observing my horses. I wanted to really see them with my eyes. I am no artist, but I chose to draw one and I painted another... I sat, quietly for hours just observing their eyes, mouths, their mane, their colours. How I saw themšŸ¤ We bonded during that time as I asked for nothing. I just sat with them, soft music playing whilst they watched me too... occasionally coming over to nudge me, smell me, breathe over mešŸ¤ Just wanted to share. Try it. Would be amazing to create our own gallery🐓🫶
