WHEN it comes to training, we can do the impossible every day, but miracles take a bit longer. In other words, you can’t try to do everything in one go. You need patience with your horses and should work on the building blocks. Some take more time and need that little bit longer, while others pick up lessons quicker.
I live by the importance of good feeding. It shows in the horse’s body and performance. You might need to spend more money, but they will reap the rewards, with shiny coats, strong feet and they generally feel well.
A good farrier who shoes according to conformation and breed is essential, too. If a horse has solid, hard feet and is confident without shoes, then brilliant, but it depends on the individual and his own needs.
