Trailer Loading made easy
Trailer loading is a lot easier than what folks make it sound like. Teach your horse 3 signals, and watch the trailer trauma disappear. No silly circling, no...

LOL.... awesoem Michael.
Thanks for posting this... I was kinda suspecting my horses becoming unnaturally devious. Now I know where they are getting it from.

Yup... very cool. Shoot riding one horse at that speed thru all those obstacles would be tricky enough.

LOL... yep, thanks for posting this. Lots of fun. I had to learn to swing up (again) for some cowboy racing this summer.
Took my good ole Haffie, and a little bank, and let muscles and coordination develop first, afore I tried it from level…
Use a better Neck Rein
Most people try to pull their horses around. But if you are using a neck rein, be aware that it is a signal rein. It works off the neck, not the bit. Learn h...

Julia Slater commented on MagsNMe's blog post 'Horrendous news'
Yeah... I had one of those. Not fun. Kinda offish every once in a while, 2 yrs later dead lame on both fronts. We had to put him down too. He couldn't keep up w/ his pasture buddies any more. He was 7. His name was Fitch
Julia Slater replied to Julia Slater's discussion 'Make an offer on this horse'
Hey Kathleen
No... I can't say that he'd be a suitable horse for you. He's a lot of horse. Probly won't deal well w/ someone who's not sure of themselves.
Julia Slater commented on Susan's video
the most amazing part of this vid is how good natured Able is about all this stuff. I've seen "At Liberty" stuff before, and usually the horses look grouchy and out of sorts.
But ole Able looks like he really wants to play w/ the…

Yeah baby!!! That is too cool. Beautiful!!
Ok... plz educate an unbeliever... is it ok for the horse to be loping in spots?
Julia Slater replied to Jackie Cochran's discussion 'Light Hands'
Light hands are reactive hands. They will give the support each individual horse needs, for each maneuver that is being executed
Light hands are authorative hands. They will give as much direction as each individual horse needs for each…

Aw, thanks you guys! It was too much fun.
And Yeah, the credit goes mostly to OTB. She had fun and stepped up to the plate in a big way.

Coopersmom_1958 said… - Hi Julia! Thanks for accepting me! Happy New Year to You!
I have not had any rides on Cooper since my friend got on him that one time. Training has practically stopped for now until the spring and when we have more daylight through the work week in the evenings. I have to do more work with him to get better ground manners, despooking, so he is nice and calm for me. I was almost at the point to getting on him myself and then I moved him. No indoor arena now and I have a hard time getting around in the snow outside with my prosthesis. I have had to cut riding lessons to once a week from two times a week and I am really feeling it in my muscles and body. There are not many barns that offer western lessons in my area. I have not been riding for 4 weeks now because of my leg and xmas holidays. I hope things pick up soon and I get back into the swing, with riding and Cooper. I want to continue with natural training and have used this time off to watch my dvd's. I hope to be riding him this spring or summer, walking around the round pen and outdoor arena. I was even thinking of trying to go outside in the deep snow and get on him, if I can get this leg right. I'm not very athletic and if I fall it will be a softer landing, and of course I will wear a helmet.
You have such beautiful horses, so well trained. I love your videos and photos! Your website is great and I have subscribed to your youtube page.Delete Comment

Barnmice Admin said… - Great idea, Julia. One of the things I've wanted to do is add lots of Western riders to our community, to bring people together from every background.
There is currently a Western Riders group here, and I believe we have a little reining group. Please spread the word - the more the merrier!
