My ENTIRE Equine Wellness Plan! Caring For My 11 Horses
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 кві 2024
- Hey Horse Lovers! In this video, we dive into a comprehensive equine wellness plan that covers the various aspects of caring for multiple horses. From the importance of farrier visits to equine dental care, chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and tailored nutrition plans, each component contributes to the overall well-being of the horses. This detailed guide will outline the key considerations and practices involved in maintaining the health and happiness of a herd of equines. Caring for a herd of 11 horses involves a holistic approach to equine wellness. Regular farrier visits are essential to maintaining healthy hooves and proper foot balance. Equine dental care is another crucial aspect that should not be overlooked, as dental issues can affect a horse's overall health and performance. Incorporating equine chiropractic sessions can aid in maintaining proper spinal alignment and mobility, while equine massage therapy promotes relaxation and muscle recovery. Furthermore, a well-rounded equine nutrition plan tailored to the specific needs of each horse is paramount. Providing a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients ensures optimal health and vitality for the entire herd. By focusing on all these components - farrier care, dental health, chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and nutrition - horse owners can create a comprehensive equine wellness plan that promotes the well-being of their horses.

That was very useful and interesting. How lucky these horse are ❤
So educational and thank you for showing what it takes to be a responsible horse owner 😊❤
Great segment!!! So much info for the young horsemen/ horse women. Thank you.
Amazing and very
Educational.
Good job in taking care of your wonderful horses.
Yeah, I figured. Someone was trying to scam me through your UA-cam video. I wish I could attach the picture of how it looked. I deleted it but wanted you to know in case whoever this person is, tries to go through the backdoor like they did. So to verify, you do not have a Telegram account for Free Spirit Equestrian, correct?
My mother is a vet and she over heard me listening to you and she shouts from the other room " Listen to that lady she is amazing!" Love you 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
That’s fantastic!!!!! ❤️❤️
I agree!!!
This vet here agrees too
Thank you for sharing all your vast knowledge. I rode horses as a kid with my babysitting money. Lol. Then, as a young adult, I took some lessons. Life got busy with marriage and kids, so I only occasionally rode. I never gave up on the dream of being around horses. The thing I missed was the knowledge of really caring for horses. I'm now retired and volunteering at a barn that has an equine assisted mental health program. Volunteers sign up for either morning or evening shifts to feed, clean stalls, let the horses out, or bring them in. I really appreciate your videos. I absolutely love it being at the barn!!!
@@francesdroba7654
I love that horses are used in those programs. Horses are so intuitive and I believe they know when those who are on their back need special care. That is a very beautiful thing you are doing ❤️
So happy you are showing the "other" side of magical horsemanship
Me too. I have always dreamed of owning a horse ranch. I'm 48 next month. I'm losing hope. I'm so happy I found Shae, Kyle, and Free Spirit Equestrian! I get to live vicariously through them. ❤
I owned horses when I was much younger (almost 73) and I have to admit that 55 years ago, except for a salt block and trimming hooves or replacing shoes and brushing on Neat’s hoof oil for dryness) the people I knew (and me) did none of the things you do for your horses. I grew up in a town in western Kansas and my friends & I boarded our horses close to town & rode after school and on weekends. During the hot summers, we’d get up at the crack of dawn and ride then. Imagine teenagers setting our alarms to go ride! Now, I get my dogs teeth cleaned and we didn’t do that way back then either! Health improvements for ALL animals.
You’re so kind to your horses, if only every horse owner was even half as nice as you. 🥺🫶
I totally agree!!!! I love Shae and Kyle and all of their horses!!!! My favorite and most watched UA-cam channel!
Your lesson program should be the standard for all riding schools
What!?! Is your name fitting or what !?!
This video should be viewed by anyone who is thinking about having a horse.
Can I say shout out to the professionals that participated in the filming and helping spread awareness of how much this process can help horses! Thank you ALL! That is a LOT of horses to get done in one day! WOW!
I love how all horses are all clean and shed out and looks fresh for the summer and Mushu is like "Yes, I want all the fur!"
Love this comment. Mushu, as as Moo does.
I'm just in awe at how well you treat your horses. I've been to a few different schools as I've moved around and for the most part it's all the same. They get fed, groomed, farrier vet dental etc but no one normally cares about massages and adjustments. I think you're incredible and all your horses must be so so happy and relaxed. Beauty seemed to be having a great time with (possibly) her first ever massages!
This is a really good video for people who want to have horses, but don't know what it takes to keep them fit, happy, and healthy. Me, well I always wanted to have a horse ever since I was a child, but life had other plans and now I'm 66 and too old, but seeing them in video's and learning all about them lifts my spirit. Horses are truely beautiful and should be loved and given a great home and good care. and thats what you do.☺😊🤗
That’s my story too, even the same age! Little girls love horses! This video was very eye opening as to the cost involved in keeping healthy horses. We adopted our first rescue dog 3 years ago and that has been quite an expense too. Allergies leading to yearly ear infections, regular vet upkeep with exams, tests & vaccinations & a yearly dental. But we love her to bits💖
You are NEVER TO OLD to love, take care of, and have a horse. If your health is an issue maybe volunteer at a therapy riding center. Your can be around horses and it will probably help your health as well. I know it made a huge difference in my well being at the age of 76. Give it a try if you can! ❤
@@MoogieB Hi, when I was a child we lived in London so I could'nt have a horse. I've lived in Cornwall now for nearly 40 years and there are a lots of horses, cows, sheep, and many others but I still could'nt have a horse. I rescue cats and any little ones who need help, but as you say vet bills are high!
Any horse rescue loves volunteers as well!
@@mmmurrr48 Hi, where I live now there are a few horses and I just love to see them, sadly there isn't any stables or therapy centres near by that need help, so I rescue cats and other little ones that need help. 🤗
You take such good care of your horses…it makes me happy to see your total commitment to their health and well being…
Thank you I try my very best ❤️
@freespiritequestrian
I feel, at this point of all horses living here, WILL DEFINITELY let her know if she has forgotten to do any little thing !
Love ya, too, Kyle 😊
Everyone was so calm and exceptional in their treatments, love that 💜
From an equine vet tech you get an A+++. If only every horse owner was as amazing as you! ❤❤❤
If John the farrier ever decides to have a UA-cam channel I would subscribe in a heart beat. He looks like he has an amazing personality and so much charisma 🙂
Yes absolutely!

Did they check Belle's alimentary canal? Her ....
You're right horses are a luxury. They need a ton of care, hoofs, teeth, shots, worming, vet visits, and a host of other costs. Don't get them if you can't give them the care they need, its time consuming and expensive to keep them healthy.
Mushu looks like a woolly mammoth 🦣😍
AHHH THE NEW STALLS ARE GORGEOUS
It's great to see so many women in these professions. You go girls.🐴🐎
As a person who has never had that privilege, I loved this. I love learning through visual and verbal lessons. It is too bad that I didn't live closer to you because I would work for free just to get the immersion of having that experience. Thank you for doing this video it is always great to see the trail rides but to also let those of us who don't have the opportunity to live with these majestic beautiful creatures live vicariously through you is a treat.
These horses are living their best life!! Thank you Shae for taking us along today. 🐎💕
Doc Johnson was just at my barn to do my boys (tb and a drum yearling) last week. My drum was born the day after ezzy so I’ve loved watching our foals grow together. I live a little north of metro Detroit area so I think it’s so cool to watch a local UA-camr!
Hello fellow Michigander! Downriver here, although I’m not a horse owner, I’ve loved horses my whole life. Best wishes with your horses. 👍🏼✋🏼
I am 75 now, sadly not physically or financially able to have a horse. However, I spent 40 years owning horses. I was an owner, trainer, and farrier. Yes, in the 1970s I was one of only a few female farriers and was even written up in the newspaper! Had to stop when was pregnant. I also led a 4H club, amd camped and traveled with my horses. I also taught elementary school. Was very busy, and loved it! People will remember me for my aged self, and not for my former life. You are very much what I wanted to achieve in life, but crap happened. 💩 Apreciate life now everyone. Tomorrow cannot be predicted. Love horses!!!! ❤
WOW...one of the most interesting tutorials to watch! During the massage & adjustment sessions, a thought occurred to me...if I tell Shea I self identify as a horse, 🐴would she adopt me? Then came the dental segment...on 2nd thought...nope, I'll stay human, tyvm🤠✌️Kudos Shea for being the best horse mom around!❤
Your horses are in horse heaven. Honestly, I wasn't overly interested in the video and turned it on just to support the channel while doing chores. Well.... laundry didn't get done, etcetera LOL I was fascinated by the massages and chiropractic section, then the floating. Excellent way to do dental! Just all of it- you are amazing. ❤ Thank you for an educational and fun video.
Mushu looks like a little woolly mammoth 😂
She could get some plastic mammoth tusks and ears for Mushu for Halloween.😂
i just looked up what a teddy bear is and the dictionary had a picture of mushu!!!! i couldn't believe it!!!
THANK YOU!! Most people don’t understand what is involved in having a horse and the care/cost. I love my horse; the barn I learned to ride at was excellent in educating what goes into equine care. A huge thank you, Shae! ❤❤
Subconsciously, I probably should have known all of this, but seeing it demonstrated in detail is beneficial!
Do you realize that you are also encouraging the range of careers available that support equines!
Did my homework. Coggins is a nightmare!
Every horse owner needs to do all the above….i have a 24 yr old and do it all for my girl = really helps her stay in good health…..
What an informative and enjoyable video! Though I will never have need of all the info you share with us, Shae, for some strange reason I need to listen as if I might! I really tickle myself at the age of 83 looking so forward to our Saturdays together! Love, love, love your pack of lovely horses, and you and your beautiful soul and Kyle who is your knight in shinning armor! Calif. calling
Mushu is moustaching you! 😂❤
It takes a village to run your show, Shae, and what a wonderful support team you do have. Thank you for sharing with us. I appreciate you covering several days and combining it all here. Your horses were exquisite! Everyone behaved beautifully and you can tell they all love the attention and TLC.
Shae,
I absolutely love how you take care of your horses/animals from tip to toe! Their mental health is as important as physical health. You always have their best interests at heart. Thank you for taking such great care of these precious souls.
To watch the releases they give after their massages was great!!
I really liked watching Dr Tom doing the dentals.
The Bemer treatment blanket was very cool!
It takes a village to care for them.
Most people don’t understand all the care that horses need. Which you did something that a lot of people wouldn’t think of, you transformed your barn, both inside and out. The money that you invest in your property will come back ten fold to you.
This was a fantastic video!!
Thank you for ALWAYS doing the very best for these amazing creatures!!! 💛
Thank you so much for showing Belle's trim. Ever since she was diagnosed with Shivers I have been wondering how the heck her hoof care was going to be managed. I didn't even know horses hooves could be trimmed like that and it was really interesting to see!
It's probably more difficult for the ferrier but Belle's worth the effort
When I see how you care for your horses, I apologize to the spirit of the horses I had when I was a kid because the only thing I remember doing for them was shoeing and our farrier was not a nice man. We thought we were taking good care of our animals, but I don't think we did.
Very well said. I got my first horse at 11 and as you said I'm sure I didn't know/worry about teeth care, massage etc. Hoof care definitely yes.
Ha!, like for us kids, horsey tooth care was a bit brutal in the old days. I remember the Farrier using a twitch before knocking out Wolf teeth with the mallet and something? I don't think it was a chisel but it was like? Poor horsey was most miffed (and me too!). His poor soft nose! Our Farrier was old but good and very knowledgeable but I do remember he had to be told not to whallop my young fidgety horse with the clippers. Nudging ninety he didn't have the patience he once had as a younger fitter man.
Regular tooth filing was also without sedation, but it did the job. We learned you could waste a fair bit of money on expensive feed if you didn't attend to the teeth. Why was horsey losing weight when he was eating for England I wanted to know? Our friendly Farrier asked if he was dribbling his food everywhere and when I said, he was, he said he'd bring his tools and do the filing. Later it was the Vet doing the Dentistry but still, sedation was for possibly richer fancier folks than we were? No power tools either!
When our children were growing up my (non horsey) husband wanted to them ponies but I (horse nut) said no because you have to be really passionate about horses to take that responsibility on. However we did get an opportunity to have a super kind pony and he was a fabulous introduction to years of riding for two of our children. The way you look after your horses should be the bar for all horse owners.
Thank you for sharing such an in-depth, informative video, Shae. So many people forget what it takes for 1 horse or 11 horses!! It applies for 1 horse as well as the 11 you have. It's so important that all of these things are done. Especially the Chiro and Massage work, Farrier work and most important of all, in my opinion, the Dental work. It's as important as the Farrier work. So, thank you again!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Okay, teacher, I looked up Coggins. I did my homework 🐴🐴🐴
Your horses are so lucky to be owned by you! The absolute best care & they are so loved! ❤ 🐴 🐎
This video is so important for those considering ownership of a horse. True ownership and dedication takes effort, time and adequate funding to properly care for a horse.. The expenses do not stop with the purchase of the animal. I think this is one of your finest videos. As your video shows there is much that goes into owning and meeting the responsibility of caring for a horse. The horses needs must come first. Keep these types of videos coming as they are a teaching tool and might help others who need encouragement and understanding as to what it really takes to call themselves a horse owner.
This lady is amazing. I admire you Ms Shea. Thank you for going over all of that great info. It is very expensive to
own one horse. I can’t even imagine having 11-12. Your horses absolutely have the best owner the best farm the best care a horse could ever have. Thanks again Shea.
You and Kyle are great horse parents.
Your herd are so relaxed and obviously enjoying the different therapies. Thank you,Shae.
EVERYONE WAKE UP TYE QUEEN HAS POSTED
I sat watching this video in amazement of both the excellent care all of your horses receive and of how much valuable information I was listening to from you about the best care of horses that I have truly ever seen. I was very impressed to see how many professional women you employ along with the men to care for your horses! You are just awesome in every way! I also loved watching the horses enjoy their massages and chiropractic adjustments, which reminds me ... I need to set up my next appointments for myself! LOL!!
Thank you for showing how the Farrier handles Belles rear hind foot, I have been wondering about that. Amazing. I suppose there’s always a risk of something going wrong underneath but just goes with a territory I guess. Was a bit heartbreaking to watch her backing up. But we know this is what we’re up against. Great video!
Oh, by the way great to see Mushu again, he's my favourite
Zazu is a whole vibe!😂🤣
I love that you use real pros that really know what theyre doing. ❤️
Phew! I had no idea it took so much to maintain horses! I am exhausted just listening. Lucky horses!! ♥️♥️♥️
No one does what you do … people have NO idea what’s really involved in owning a horse, much less horses… thank you for educating us! Like I said… I’ve not seen anyone else’s videos that show and explain all this stuff♥️🙋♀️☮️🥰‼️☮️
Love seeing the horses up close, I can really see how beautiful they are.
I wish everyone took such good care of their horses like you do!
I've been amazed at the advances in equine dentistry. I remember as a kid watching the horses having their teeth floated manually with only a twitch for sedation,
I love how much you care for all your horses. I've been looking for a place for riding lessons. I've visited 4 in my area & none even come close to your lesson program. You are exceptional in all that you offer. I can't afford my own horse so need to find a great place for riding, lessons & trail riding. Wish I lived in your area....lol.
Can I come live on your farm? Your horses are so lucky they fell into your lives!
Also.... I'm convinced Mushu isn't actually a horse. He's obviously some sort of Yeti-Wookie hybrid 😆 😆
😅
Omg My Son works for a Vacation Ranch and they Have 130 Horses 😅I have no idea how they keep up with all the work ? Amazing ❤
That’s wild!!! The sad part is most of them don’t. There are always wonderful one’s but they are few and far between.
Love the new stables!! Kyle did a great job. Love this information. So much needed ❤❤❤❤❤
Great information. I don't think people realise what goes into keeping horses. My farrier and vet are both women. People are always surprised to know that.
BEST VIDEO!!! Thank you for sharing all of these necessary components of equine care and wellness. They are vital. Even before/after riding your horse you can prepare beforehand/conclude afterward with stretching and massaging them. You are a great example to follow Shae. Your horses are healthy and happy. ❤️
You take such excellent care of all your horses Shae. You showed everything that should be done to keep your horses happy, healthy, and fit. Too many people buy a horse thinking they can just throw them out in a pasture and they will be just fine, WRONG, some have absolutely no clue about their horses diet, and what all the damage pasture feeding (non stop) can do to not only their gut health, but also to their feet (hooves) excellent presentation of what the horses whole body needs! Thank you for sharing this very important video. Love and God Bless 💜 ✝️ Jennifer
A nice long video I’m looking forward to watching later. I love that I can watch these and share them with my niece who is 8 and just starting to ride. I really enjoy watching and I love the educational value of your videos. I just wish I wasn’t stuck so unwell and overweight that I can no longer ride…
I am in the same condition as you-plus I’m almost 73. But, I enjoy the horses & reminisce my “horsey” years when I was young. ☺️
THE QUEEN POSTED EVERYONE WAKE UP!!❤
Stop whining.
@@cassandragriswold7521 what? I’m not even whining?? I happy?? You don’t make no sense once so ever!?
AM AWAKE!!!! AM UP!!
@@annastearman-uh8qg good!!
This shows how much care 11 horses need 😊✌✌
The dentist is extremely brave!!! The dentist is my ultimate fear!!!!!!!!
You gonna have to knock me out too! Once I got two teeth pulled and the dentist said he's never seen someone sweat out a chair like me!!!!
I can't do the grinding soiund! Ouch
Great video!! The only thing I did different was do a rabies shot for my horse every year because we were in an area where rabies was found in the wild life.
Thank you for the piggy fix at the end. She’s so adorable. ❤️🐴😊
Agree, so important for overall horse care explained through visuals and good explanation of process Thank you so much. A great education of horse care.
Wow. Never knew. I only own one dog. He just had cancer surgery. I will make a dental appointment. Thank you for your instruction. Appreciate you so much!
It clearly shows how much you love your horses. I can only imagine how much it costs to care for these beautiful animals, but it pays big dividends in the long run. And by the way, between the different shots of the stalls, the new ones look so beautiful as compared to the old ones. I only wish you had the chandeliers on to see the full effect of the make-over.
Getting everyone ready for all the summer fun 🧲🐴
I cannot thank y'all enough for making and sharing this video. All of which I aspire to do with my future herd 🐎 I don't have a herd or any horses YET.
$800 for horse dental is a good chunk of money 💰 In my perspective it's realistic. I recently took my cats to the vet in March 2024. Wellness exams for all 6 of them. Everything was great, only 2 of them required dentals 🦷 which was not completely surprising because they chew the least.
Vet here in southern Texas quoted me $800 per cat 🙀 Same price you paid per horse!!! 🐴 🦷 No serious work either, THANK HEAVENS 🙏🏻 yeah $800 for just normal maintenance and dental cleaning per cat 🤯 I have never had cat and/or dog dentals that pricey before. I am more than happy to do it. It just blows my mind it's the same price as you just paid for a horse dental.
Blessed be 🌈🫂
Shae....I wish you could be what every horse has for an owner. The love, care, respect, and dedication you give to all your horses is beyond amazing! YOU are amazing! 💕🥰💜🐴🥰
You are not only a horse lover but a wonderful educator and care giver for equine family. Thank you Shae❤️
Gosh, Shea, both of your farriers use the BEMER! I've had my equine BEMER since 2017, when they came to the U.S.....and none of my farriers use it, much less believe in it.🙄 So, I just do my thing for my Mustang mare. She loves it! I love mine too. :) But, what I'm surprised about is that it isn't affecting the farriers. I've heard some horse owners say they can't be too close to the BEMER when it's on their horse, especially when on the high mode. I have loved equine massage and chiropractic, since using it on a rescue back in 2003.
I was just listening to the 7part series from University of Kentucky, head of parasentology, who said they have a herd of horses (test herd) that haven't been wormed since 1979. They are healthy and they haven't ever had an issue with them. He went over all the parasites and how most wormers aren't working anymore from overuse. I'm trying Silver Lining Herbs and worming with the full moon. But, I loved that you went to a forage-based feed. I've been feeding my Mustang mare a forage diet for years, trying to keep her as close to what she'd find in the wild...and adding minerals. When I adopted her as a 2yo 16yrs ago, it was horrible finding feeds without soy, which kills her hormonal system. Plus, my normal laid back mare, anything with grain, she becomes like a kid on a sugar high. I was using Big Sky Minerals out of Ohio, but since I moved to NE Texas, I've had to find another mineral blend, because it had added iron and selenium. The iron down here in the water is horrendous, and it's done a number on her frogs. I'm loving the Vermont Blend (no iron/selenium)...and lucky she is too! I tried another mineral blend, but it had anise oil. To say she hated it was an understatement.😅 I had been trying to get my friends when I lived in Southern PA to move to forage. The one friend finally did last year with outstanding results with her OTT. I agree about the pellets! I used Standlee timothy pellets for yrs and they were getting harder and harder to soak. Plus, found out several of their feeds now have added canola oil. I switched to a timothy cube with a little beet pulp, all non-GMO, from Triple Crown. Not the first time I heard about Unbeetable, lately, but I have to stick to a true forage grass base. Love your mindset about so many things, especially them being out 24/7! Always enjoy your videos.😊
i use the same vet as you! dr. johnson is amazing and dr. skylar! i love this video! your amazing! ❤❤❤
Oh my gosh!
I learned SO MUCH about horses today.
Thanks for the lesson.
I don’t have horses, but have always wanted one and admire the beautiful creatures that they are. I have learned so much about how to care for them. I enjoy watching you train them and explain how and why you train them, take care of them, feed them, give them nutrients, etc. They are very lucky horses and it shows how knowledgeable and loving you are with your horses. Your stalls look awesome as well. You and Kyle take great care of all of your animals.
I'm amazed how relaxed and well behaved your horses are. They look so content.
Only true free spirit equestrian fans can like this comment ❤
You put everything in perspective when it comes to horse health and care. I do wish I would have known someone like you in my younger years to learn from. It's great you show each of your horses and what is being done for each. I've never seen inside a horse's mouth. It's great that you have so many experienced professionals working on all your babies!!❤❤❤
Very professional and passionate about your beloved horses, so informative and awesome to see!
Bless you and your beautiful horses. ❤💪❤
This is what I have done. I go to a massage therapist who adjusts me just like the horses. I’m also getting a massage gun for my tight muscles. Love to see how much the horses enjoy their massages.
Thank you for the educational program! I had no idea how much care is required for these magnificent animals! I love this!
Shae, this was an excellent video choice to help educate your viewers on all that goes into horse wellness care. Thank you so much for sharing all of this important information with all of us. I really learned a lot about this topic from you today and I found it all very interesting. You are such a wonderful horse owner and teacher! I just wish every horse could receive such amazing loving care from their owners. You and Kyle are hands down the best! It’s no wonder why your horses love you like they do! Love, love, love your channel and your videos!
💕😄🐴✨🥇👍💖
Shae you have taught me soooo much about horses like riding, horse well-being, even if I don’t have a horse. I’m in through a year of riding and my dream is to do what you do and own a couple of horses. You’ve helped me understand a lot about the equestrian community. Thank you so much hope you and your horses are doing well❤❤
What a spectacular video! Very informative for youngsters wanting to get into equestrian. Dispels the myth of just a horse in a paddock then go for a ride. Very well presented ❤
Great video, Shae! People really do need to know how much work, time, and care goes into owning a horse, and this is a really good representation of that.
This was facinating Shae, thanks for sharing! You give all your hoof babies so much tlc and it shows! Much love to all of you down on the farm! 💖😊
You are so fortunate to be able to incorporate such services for your horses’ wellbeing. Mine are I can only do such things on an “as needed” basis.
We’ve started doing the poop test also to see if they actually need wormer.
Happy Sunday ❤ Blessings and much love to you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So interesting about grass! Obviously wild herds are mostly on mature, weedy, lower sugar grasses, and traveling more miles, so what seems "natural" isn't really the same as being cooped up on a small rich pasture!
I always learn so much from your videos. Thank you for covering so many topics. I did have questions...but you answered them all. Part of me is sad that there was so much I did not know as a kid and young adult when I had horses. Even the vets and farriers at the time seemed to not know, either (as I reflect back) ...and I have regrets, even though for the era, I did much better than most for my horses. Horse 4-H taught us nothing! We learned nothing about care. It was all about getting ready for a horse show...practicing our "drill team" maneuvers...and that's it. Sad.
Shae, You are an equine encyclopedia! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I truly hope that new horse owners watch this. It should be a must see for all horse owners, or those thinking of buying a horse. I tell you Shae, what I would have given to have someone like you to help me out with my first horse. I learned by trial and error. Nobody has any excuse not to take care of their horse, or any pet for that matter. Between the internet & FaceTime etc, you can research easier etc. Having someone like you that spreads their knowledge is like receiving gold. I had the farrier, the vet but I never gave a thought to message. Also so much more is known about what is needed in their diet. Happy Horse, Happy Owner😊thanks Shae. Take care
I loved watching horse-spa day. I was surprised to find out that a horse dental procedure in MI costs the same as a dog dental in CA! I can't imagine how much more horse owners near me spend!
Any horse coming to your care are so lucky to have you loving them what a happy family
I love how you are with your horses❤ this was nice too see this!
I think I forgot to complement your filming of the dental work. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so well inside a horses mouth on a video of a horse dental appointment!
I live in the most densely populated horse and rider area in Scotland .
This time of the year it is ride out season . When each local town chooses a laddie and lass to ride the bounds .
This is a cavalcade ride with upwards of 300vhorses who ride every day to different villages were they stop for tea .
And dance a Scottish Gig . This dates from the 17th Century when there were livestock thieves called raiders so the people of the village rode to the county boundaries . Now its a festival of the horse that starts in May and each towns chosen leaders ride out for a whole season .
The ares is hilly and to see a cavalcade of horse come over the hill .

I learned a lot from your video today. If I had a horse I would I would be doing things like you . They are very lucky to be with you. Not everyone treats their horses so well . Thanks for the video . I look forward to watching your videos. Thanks so much!
Loved this episode. Thanks, Shae. Especially glad that John worked out a method for trimming Belle's Rt-rear hoof on the ground. 👏 And thank you for mentioning the benefits you've already noticed from abandoning commercial feed.
