This needed to be said. 🙌 🙌 🙌

Don't get greedy with the youngsters, especially those with a generous spirit. When advanced movements are practiced too early and/or without sufficient core strength, suspensory desmitis shows up way too soon in a horse's life.

This will be a great conversation to listen to!

⭐️ 🐴 Jim Masterson (The Masterson Method, Integrated Equine Performance Bodywork) and I have just scheduled another LIVE podcast discussion with TALKING ABOUT HORSES! We're going to be discussing what tension LOOKS AND FEELS LIKE in the horse's body, both from a bodywork perspective and a training perspective.

🔥 PLUS, we have some fun announcements to make. You won't want to miss this one! If you follow the link, you can sign up for a reminder, as well as a replay link that we'll send out after the live stream.

This is taking place HERE on Facebook, as a livestream, on June 9 at 7pm (eastern US time).

I got a little bitty surprise when I went to grab my rasp off of the stall wall. 🐍

THIS IS NOT MY USUAL POST BUT THIS IS A SITUATION WHERE I NEED AS MUCH HELP AS WE CAN GET.....
🚨 🙏
I found these 3 dogs today at my farm, someone had dumped them out on my dirt road. I have never seen dogs in this shape before. 😭 it's just heartbreaking. They were terrified and would not come near me. Our local animal control did not answer the phone but thankfully Fostering Foster Animal Rescue did.

I am so thankful for Fostering Foster Animal Rescue, they sent help immediately.
They sprang into action and were there to help me within 30 minutes of me finding them. Thanks to them, these poor dogs will have a chance.

Please please donate to Fostering Foster if you can. This rescue does so much and they need all the help they can get. I suspect there will be more from this situation dumped in our area ☮️

Venmo or you can donate via the link.

If you don't want to send money electronically I can come get donations and take them myself.
