I had a marvelous session long lining him yesterday, it was awesome, better than I could ever imagined…at the end [after unclipping the lines] it was so wonderful, he just wouldn't leave my side, then I guided him through the same course off the lead totally and just asked him what to do and he did it, I wish I had filmed it!
Brandy is such a nice natured horse now...He is an absolute joy to catch, and even if he is a few fields away from the gate when I call him, he whinnies and canters over…Thanks so much for all of your help.
Your help was invaluable and both myself and Candy turned a massive corner.
It was an absolute pleasure having your help with Milo. I'll never forget watching you do his first join up - what a joy. Moving him onto my new yard and not having a very upset little horse was real proof to me that it works.
Thank you for all the help and advice with the ponies. You are a wealth of knowledge and the ponies are both reformed characters now.
It is wonderful the way that you demonstrate, then guide me through the process (with great patience - thinking of my early attempts to catch Nightingale!!) all the time encouraging. I have learnt so much from you and it is such a pleasure working with you. The skills that you have taught are definitely established for life now.
I've been amazed at how much my relationship with Kari has improved since I really started doing the ground work with her. It's quite fascinating … I've always liked schooling but hadn't realised how much fun could be had from the ground.
I would like to thank you so very much for all the help that you have given us both. Words cannot express the confidence that we have both learnt from you.
Thanks so much for today, I feel more confident when I have a lesson with you.
My horse was a sporadic loader. You showed me how small changes can make big differences, and when you are confident you are asking correctly, it gives the horse the confidence to come up with the right answer.
