Farrier day for our little (not so little) Relic! 🤍
Relic picks up all four feet and lets us clean them regularly, and she’s had her feet worked with before—but this was her first full trim on all four!
Judging by this video, you’d think she handled it like an old pro. 😂 She was a little confused and concerned about what all the tools were doing to her hooves, and what our videographer didn’t catch was the little rodeo that happened before this part. 😂 But in the end, she settled down, was a good girl, and let her farrier get a full trim done on all four feet! 🤍
That’s the thing about young horses—sometimes they act like they’ve been doing something their whole lives, and the next time they’re pretty sure they’ve never seen it before. 😂 Relic may already be massive, but at the end of the day, she’s still a baby. Experiences like these are all part of teaching her to stand patiently, trust the people handling her, and become a safe, well-mannered horse as she continues to grow.
One of the best parts of having a breeding program is getting to work with horses at every stage of life. The older, more seasoned horses give you confidence in what you know, while the young ones can make you feel like you have absolutely no idea what you’re doing at times. 😂 They challenge your patience, your timing, and your ability to read each individual horse—and in the process, they continue to make you grow into a better horseman right alongside them. 🤍
And looking at how dry the ground was when we filmed this, we sure wish it still looked like that around here! 😅 Just a reminder that our Red, White & Wilder Blue Event & Market this Sunday has been canceled due to weather. 🌧️ But don’t worry—we’re already looking ahead! Dates for our Fall event will be announced soon! 🍂🐴🤍
