🌷 🐴May Round Up🐴 🌷

What a month! Here’s a quick look at what we’ve been up to as the weather’s warmed up ☀️

Clipping in preparation for the hot weather! Plenty of tidy clips to keep horses comfortable in the heat and ready for the summer workload ✂️

Lesson progress galore!! Huge well done to clients smashing their goals, building confidence, and polishing those transitions 🎯

Breakers making big steps! First leans and first sits completed quietly and positively, setting them up for calm, correct starts✨

Reliable daily yard visits, turnout, feeds, meds, grooming and checks done consistently whatever the weather🌦️

Ringside support, grooming at events with last-minute shine-ups, and calm, organised prep in the warm-up 🧼

➡️Looking ahead to June➡️

Starting my accredited coaching journey! Excited to bring even more structure and depth to your lessons 📚

Holiday cover bookings! Flexible, trustworthy care so you can switch off knowing your horses are in safe hands 🏖️

More shows booked for grooming, turnout, and on-the-day support to help you feel ring-ready 🧽 ✨

Here’s to a busy, sunny month ahead! 🐴✨

Everyone meet Obie One! My very own blank canvas!🥹🩵

Before ➡After ✂️

Tom’s had his summer clip to help keep him comfy during this heatwave and I think he’s feeling much happier for it! 🐴💛

Can’t believe my old man is 24 this year… and just look at him! Still as handsome as ever, just with a little less fluff and a lot more breeze 😄✨

Wow… 400 followers! 🎉

Massive thank you to every single one of you for the support, likes, comments, and shares!💜

Here’s to the next milestone… let’s keep growing 🚀

Took the afternoon off to help transport my nephew to his vet appointment last week, and honestly it was such an insightful, eye-opening experience🐴

We headed to Equine Veterinary Dentist to see James and his team, who we honestly couldn’t recommend enough. They were incredible with Thomas, so patient, so calm, and their communication throughout was amazing✨

We’d done a few trailer and box practice sessions beforehand as he can be a bit of a worrier when it comes to travelling, but he handled the day so well🥰

It turns out he needed two teeth removing due to decay caused by an external impact when he was younger, which explains some of the resistance and tension we’ve been feeling under saddle.
The most important thing is he’s now out of pain and starting his recovery journey!

Really interested to see how his rehab journey progresses from here, especially in terms of softness, contact, and building a more positive association with the bit going forward 🤍
