I absolutely love these sort of talk-through episodes - hearing how you might troubleshoot, the creative thinking that goes into it... super helpful! Another great podcast!

thank you Jill, this was exactly what I needed! I've been dealing with trailering issues and your methods work 10x better with my gelding. very grateful for you going into detail, this really helped!!

Podcast is back!!!! So excited 😆 if you can make it work a podcast on leg care/your opinion on boots and that sorta thing that would be wonderful Thank you!

I love the podcast in video form! Could you do an episode on emotions? Thank you! 😄

It’s so unnecessary that people even feel the need to comment on peoples appearance when there is so much more to you. Your content is incredible and you are a beautiful person inside and out. I love the visual aspect of this podcast and I’m so glad to have it back.

Yes Jill! You are 100% right about the horses who don’t trust their back feet! Modern horses are often not raised in a way that they learn to trust their body… they are fragile animals and there is a tendency to ‘bubble wrap’ them…. I know TBs that I have ridden at work who were born in a stall and raised in a flat safe paddock and ridden on a flat safe track their whole lives! Combine this with a flight instinct that almost causes them to lose awareness of everything except an escape method and you can end up with a horse who can’t navigate the world! One of the first things I do with the racehorses that I get in my own yard is to tail ride them and intentionally integrate little obstacles that aren’t above their pay grade… once they are more confident I might even ask them to back over or through a course of poles and low and behold they float better! Stand better and are so much more comfortable in their own ability to navigate the world! Going on the float is a collage level skill and if your horse can’t even back happily over a pole using his bing feet to ‘feel’ his way over and around things then you are literally asking a kindergartener to do collage level work….

So glad the podcast is back! Would love to see an episode where you talk about life things :) like a personal q&a!!

awesome video! this was a great pov

I’m so happy the podcast is back!! It’s absolutely my favorite podcast and the only one I listen to religiously. I love the rambling, it makes it feel like I’m talking with a friend. I hope you keep it up (:

Guess I’ll have to find someone to build me a pedestal now 😅

Thanks Jill for this info! You gave me some great ideas on how to address the panic issues my horse is having when he gets into an unfamiliar ramp trailer. I need to slow down and teach him to walk up and back off the ramp. My trailer is a step up and he does get nervous once he is locked in but he is happy to get in and out. I am teaching him now to wait at the haynet and not just rush back to the door. Right now I never tie him in the trailer, he gets to move around even when we are traveling. I will check out the info you have on your website for more ideas. Thanks again!

What do you think about using a platform car-hauler trailer as another baby step up to an enclosed horse trailer? It would help them feel safer with the “hollow floor” and “shaky ground” feelings! They should be able to step on and off of it like a platform, but it still feels like a trailer underfoot...

Hi I love your vids and they help me with my horses a lot

So where do we find this merch you speak of 👀
