ML Arena at Spring Point

Les's message "to not force your will on your horse" resonates with me.

Horses are surprisingly willing to work for you if you give them credit. Communicate a language they can understand and watch their frustration be replaced with growth.

Teach them to learn. Teach them to understand. Teach them work ethic. All the while being patient enough to give them the time to learn and understand. The work ethic will follow.

We tend to group them by colour it seems.. 🤔

Hendrixx is starting off on the right hoof! Day one found them with high score in the herd work. See all the action at Canada's Greatest Horseman this weekend live in Ponoka or watch the live stream here:

Ricky got another day of range riding yesterday with a couple of firsts... First mud bog up to his belly and first time moving cattle through the forest. He handled the mud bogs no problem but the sound of that many cattle bushwhacking rattled him a bit. I was still very pleased with his work throughout the day. I am very grateful to be able to have these experiences in amazing ranch country!

It was Diamond's first time back to cow work in a couple of years. We had the perfect soft cow for a chance to go slow thanks to the fantastic cattle provided by Holmes Livestock!
She loved it and was sooo keen! I thinks she's ready to go again a little faster!! Thank you Emily Crichton for all your help and putting together this little ditty 💞
And thank you Maggie CF for putting on such a great practice day!!

We had a little fun last week making a promo video!
