    Oh how Banksy has grown up, seems like just last week he was still finding his legs and ran into the fence rail outside with his mom before his second mom. Now he's already wearing a saddle. Thank you for sharing his life with us and allowing us to be a part of his journey. He's quite a stunning young man

    None of your vids have popped up for me SINCE HE WAS WITH HIS DAM. ADHD and YT have wronged me!! I was actually looking for public domain images for paintings and for some reason, your website popped up deeeep into my Googling. Anyway, something seems different in you and I can't put a finger on it. This sesh just seems so effortless and like you are right where you are meant to be. Proud of you after looking through what you've been through and up to. Your drive and resilience are superhero tier.

Did the same with my mare even though she was technically used to tack because she used to course, but a harness is still different than a saddle. Gives you really nice and quiet horses

    any advice my horse is fine being trimmed but wont let my farrier shoe him so he has to get sedation to be shod and it will be his first time getting sedation other than being gelded and first time getting shoes also we are worried once it wears off he will be terrified and hurt him self he is very head strong he was in cross ties and pulled back so hard he was sitting down so my farrier recommended sedation. all of my horses are barefoot and would love to keep it that way but he has a big chip off of his front foot.
