My delicate little flower. Aramis. 🌸 ⁣ He is

My delicate little flower. Aramis. 🌸
⁣
He is taking me on a revolutionary journey for sure. Three years with him, and I’m only just scraping the surface of what he will teach me. It is an ongoing process pinpointing the extent of his physical issues, and while he has come far it’s still a long way to go.
⁣
His one month stay at @rst_onsala was a great help in his rehabilitation. 🙌🏼 He came back more aligned, relaxed and toned. Being a very sensitive horse he is also “apologising” for his mere existence, resulting in a very tight posture. After working in the Aquatrainer his shoulders have broadened which of course allows a better lift in his front.
⁣
My plan for the coming year is to mainly focus on groundwork. We will do a lot of pole work, gymnastic jumping, in hand dressage, lungeing and trick training, with riding sessions here and there and hacking out of course.
⁣
Rehabilitating this emotional, chaotic little horse is a rollercoaster. But it will be sooo worth it in the end. I know it. 💕

Side note - I’ve finally finished his bridle. 🙌🏼 The sides and neck pieces are from Conny’s old bridle, but the browband and cavesson are new for Aramis. Isn’t he literally too cute to handle?

Horses are sooo willing to do everything we ask of

Horses are sooo willing to do everything we ask of them - as long as they understand what we’re saying. They are not born speaking Homo Sapiens, their native language is Equus. Ptroo doesn’t mean slow down in their kindergarten, and they have no idea they’re supposed to speed up when we put our leg on. It is our job, through consequent signals and the proper reinforcement in the right time, to teach them what we mean.
⁣
Opening up to a two-way dialogue is crucial. There *must* be a response to the reinforcement, otherwise the message didn’t get through. Saying “yes” or “good job” means absolutely nothing, and does absolutely nothing for your training, unless the horse shows that he understands that he gets praise, and what for. For some horses, my Aramis for example, being loved and feeling safe is all the reinforcement he’s looking for. For others, such as Jaq, payment in terms of cookies is the way to go. Our job as trainers is figuring out what gets each individual horse going, and trading that specific thing (cookies, scratches, a hug, time to think, playing, grazing etc) for behaviours we wish to see more of (standing still whilst being mounted, greeting at the gate, jumping the obstacle, piaffe, etc). 🍎🐎

Growing up, I always dreamt of a stone house dress

Growing up, I always dreamt of a stone house dressed in leaves, with deep arched windows and white horses grazing from the green hills surrounding the cottage. 🍂 There would be a dog - I never had a dog as a kid, but it was probably my biggest dream - and the other animals you expect from a rural home - cats and chickens and such. 🐓
⁣
Of course, in the dream there was never rain and wind for weeks on end, and deep mud or overloaded wheelbarrows didn’t exist in this fairy land. 💩
⁣
But I must say, this home of mine is pretty darn perfect most of the time. 🏰 I’ve been breathings dreams like air my whole life, and I really believe that “if you can dream it you can do it”. We are capable of magic, if we want it enough. ✨

Leia, she made so many dreams come true and inspir

Leia, she made so many dreams come true and inspired people worldwide. 💖 I’m so grateful that she was so deeply loved to the very end. And I smile, my heart still hurting for us left behind, but smiling thinking of how she’s now making sure she’s the Queen of wherever she went. Always fair, gentle and just. Her black mane tangled up in the stars and her mind constantly wandering. We miss you girl. 💕

Conny. ❤️ I know many of you followed me back

Conny. ❤️ I know many of you followed me back when he was the main character of my insta, but there are also lots of new ones that may or may not know him that well. So for you guys - an introduction.
⁣
Conny is my first horse. We met 16 years ago when I was 11 years old and he, according to his papers (who happened to be false) was 10. In reality he was probably 8 or 9. My only experience with dealing with horses was what I’d learned during my 6 years at a riding school and from having leased a horse over one summer. My parents weren’t horse people, but I was (am) incredibly stubborn and I had my mind set on getting a horse of my own. So eventually they gave in and my mom found an ad for Conny. It described him as quick in the turns and ▵-branded, which here in Sweden means that the horse is not allowed to compete because of injury.
⁣
He was the first and last horse we went to see. From the first glance, he was the one. Back then I strongly disliked white horses (😅) but he turned me around in a heartbeat.
⁣
Things with Conny was... not easy. He was way too big for me, had a strong will of his own and bad experiences that made him straight up dangerous from time to time. Not exactly a great fit for a first time horse owner, but as I said, I was stubborn as hell and Conny my greatest love, so we fought on.
⁣
1-2 years in I heard about a thing called Natural Horsemanship, and the next years I dedicated all my free time to read, observe, try and learn. One by one the problems with Conny started fading away, and long story short we grew into an unbreakable team. We explored “everything” together - trick training, liberty, jumping, hacking out, driving, western riding, academic art of riding, the list goes on. We felt most at home, deep in the forest with neither bridle nor saddle, galloping as fast as we could.
⁣
He succeeded with so much more than anyone would have thought - at the age of 21 he was piaffing and passaging with ease despite both laminitis and bone spavin on top of his old injuries. But as he was getting older, the troubles in his body were getting more and more prominent. So since a few years back Conny is now happily retired. ❤️

Sleep well my friend. 🖤 Life with your new huma

Sleep well my friend. 🖤 Life with your new human was way too short and my heart is heavy that we have lost such a bright soul. Sweet, clever, beautiful Leia. Ten years ago you came into my life and taught me so much, things I will forever be grateful for. Two years ago you moved to your new home, shining your special light wherever you went. I guess you were needed somewhere else now, and I will always remember you with a smile. But for now, I’ll be sad, sad for you and your human. I hope you have found Coolman in Nangijala. 🌹

Please note that I will not answer questions about what happened out of respect for her owner. Photo by @miinaphoto
