| Today I went up in the early evening which I rarely do and Diane had opened to gate onto the other acre field which has nice grass because there was barely any grass on their current patch. I got up, reassessed the situation and thought "well, even if I can catch him in an acre and a bit that is a huge thing." so I moseyed up to him, kept cool and half played the catching game. BUT, even before I even thought of walking the 15metres between us and start driving him... He looked up, pricked his ears and trotted upto me. Wowie!
So I turned him back out immediately, it was a beautiful day and I just wanted to chill and he stood next to Ty and I whilst I was lying on the ground and grazed near us for the whole 20 minutes. Then I got up, caught him and turned him out twice to show him I wasn't wanting to make him leave the lush grass alone and moved the fence and gave them a bit more grass. He was very good.
I just love love love being around horses and feeling a connection! :)
"There are two types of horse owners; those who love their horses and those who love themselves whilst on their horses."

Pre-Parelli I did the best with what I knew but now I know better; I want to do better!

I am owned by this gorgeous piebald cob mare, Lily. She's an interesting character, fun to play with and is a great teacher.
There's more about her on her own page.

It's not about disposable horses; it's about relationships for life.
It's not about quick fixes and artificial aids, it's about savvy; true understanding and expertise.
It's not about winning and others losing; It's about win-win: you and the horse need to feel good.
It's not about me me me; It's about changing the world for horses, becoming a person of knowledge and influence, and sharing what you know.
It's not about fear and doubt; It's about unconditional love and trust.
Love for the empowerment of others and trust that you'll never ask the horse to do something that would hurt or diminish his dignity.
Reveal your horse. Discover your potential. Live your dream.
-Parelli
