Yes, they are a realistic size......sorry Nova!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Kirk is the smallest, currently 34, will mature around 36. Fancy is 38 and Gaston is 42. Gaston is incredible! I like him more all the time! Fancy is really nice too and Kirk is just the cutest little baby.

Thank you! Yes, between mine and boarding horses, I am trying not to count how many I have to feed, lol. My training schedule is more of a record that I write on a small calendar at the end of a day. With my driving horses, usually I drive once a week and ground drive once a week. If they are...

Thank you!! I am very happy with them! Here are pictures from this morning! I'll start off with MRS Dancing on a Cloud (Fancy) 3yr old Shetland filly who will be in driving and halter training next year. Next is Wa-Ful KF Dunkirk (Kirk) - Yearling Shetland Miniature Gelding who will...

Thank you! Can't wait for you to come visit! They are sleeping now, but when I let them out into the pasture, I'll take better pictures and introduce them!

Oh I forgot to post the pictures I took last night! Formal introductions coming later, but here they are!

Waiting........! The horses should be here by 10.

Here it is! It is in orange at the upper right corner.....and it looks like there is a pig in pink to the left of it.

Yes, it sure can!! The nylon harness is like that and I think the giant leather one was too. I think the most trouble is with the crupper strap. I got everything else decent on that harness, but that was always too long. I think we did have to punch holes in it before I could use it. I forgot...

Yes! That seems to be a very common problem with the bigger tack companies. Yours are tiny so I can see that happening even more. Mine was just ridiculously big. 36" is far from A size. It was more of a pony harness. Wish I had it now! Lol But I'll be getting synthetic from IVC. They are really...

My CDE prospect pony comes Tuesday at the latest, possibly even tomorrow! Can't wait to meet him and the others arriving with him.

Yes that would be why it made that illusion. He was actually going in a very large left circle. I'm glad you found it helpful but I hope you don't have to deal with a harness like this! 😅 I've had the bridle come apart once or twice while I am driving and I always have to check if anything has...

No, it's not. Good eye. I noticed and stopped to fix it after the video. The right rein was under the end of the breastcollar buckle strap so that was pulling it up. I am not a fan of nylon, lol. It is always either unbuckling itself or the straps are catching on each other. But he enjoys the...

Lol, yes they are smart that way! I let Amigo canter once and it took weeks before he would get into a true working trot again. Relaxing is the biggest thing with him, but he's been doing rather well with consistent works. Had a great drive this morning with him! Love his frame in this extended...

You're welcome.....I'm glad it helped! Depending on the horse, impulsion is usually a fairly easy one, at least with mine, lol. Relaxing is the big thing with them. I guess you could say I teach impulsion outside of ground driving. All of my driving horses start out being free lunged in the...

Ummm @Kelly I think you need more color in your herd!! I seem to see a theme of dark horses! Unless you just count them as one horse! 🤣

First drive for Amigo here tonight. He did very well, was quick to relax so it went well. I happened on this recently and while I've seen it before, it's been awhile so I was slightly surprised to see that this pyramid exactly describes how I warm up my driving horses because the first things I...

Starting to get settled in now, so here are a few pictures....

Update is that we have moved so everything is pretty hectic right now! It will take a few days to settle in before we can resume serious training, but we have so much room for driving now! Pictures to come soon!

I think it's a baby thing in general. My homebred filly did it. It was funny to watch her, who was 28", and my yearling gelding who was 35", baby mouth at each other. Such a huge size difference but both babies! With that being said, I haven't seen the more dominant babies do it, so I think you...

Beautiful picture and I love the halter! Where did you find it?
