The difference between the two photos below makes me so proud.

The top was taken early 2015 when I had just started work with my mare after giving her about 4 months off. I did this so that I could get to know her and sort out the things happening in my life. The picture shows pretty much what I was starting with a mare with an attitude that said “Not Interested”.

The picture on the bottom was taken mid 2017, so two and a half years later. We have had so many hills to climb and more to come but we are finally at the point that when I ask and instead of shutting down and having a tantrum she tries.

She has matured so much these past two years and is now willing to work with humans… well some humans…mainly me but its a massive difference to before!
