July 2, 2009.   Been soo busy, haven’t had much time to update my Web page.  Sunny Spot, Buckshot or what ever you want to call him is doing Great.  Growing and possible changing colors, to What I don’t know.

Currently we are getting hay in, Riding our Tales off.  Working like Mad and Loving every minute of this Wonderful Summer.  AS soon as we get a break  I’ve got some wonderful pictures of our horse camp, the Ride at Anchor Point and just general Horses I want to share.  So Please check back soon.  Deb

Complete Success - Riding, Training and  Haveing Fun

 Both Clinics and the First Horse camp went GREAT.  Had a few interesting times while out trail riding but all ended well.  I bet we road over a hundred miles during horse camp.  All of us, horses and people were tired.  4-h camp also went well. Bandit had a blast and wanted to sty longer.  Monet was ready to come home.

 Now we get to concentrate on the our Second Rider’s Up camp and then on the Competitive Trail ride in Fairbanks.   

 I’m thankful for the rain.  I have time to work on this page, and hopefully this will make the grass GROW GROW, GROW.  We are praying for a good hay crop this year.. 

  

Check Out these few pictures. Two from our Clinic and one of Deb at Equine Fest

Check out CC and Ellie below and on my sale page.  They are nice young TWH looking for partners.

At EZ Walking Stables, we enjoy sharing our horses with folks who are not as luck but would love to share the love affair we all have with horses.  We do this by getting people involved with the horses. 

Grooming, Riding, Cleaning, Doctoring, Loving, all in a day’s lesson.  We rarely ride in a area, though sometimes its important but our training grounds is mostly the wide outdoors.  We teach riding with your body by going though the woods on winding trails.  There is nothing like nature to help you relax on your horse but still stay tuned in in case something  happens. 

  I’ve been told, I  have just about the sweetest herd of horses around.  This is due to good training on both horses and humans.  We train both to become partners, thinking partners and both appreciate it.  Now we always have to  have a leader, and I prefer the human to be that leader so our coaching teaches the folks how to be a good leader, not mean but good, (Kind but firm).

If you would like to just learn about horses, ride out on trails and enjoy this beautiful place we call home, give Deb a call (745-0804).

If you can, join us for our Horse Enthusiasts Clinic.  Bring you own horse or we can loan you one of ours.  We always have a few that could use more time with people as they are all trainers and we don’t want them to get rusty.  Clinic Slots are limited so get yours reserved now.

  

 It can be scary at any age to learn to ride and control a horse. They are big, powerful, BEAUTIFUL animals with a mind of their own. Our goal at EZ Walking stables is to help horses by educating their riders.

 Students/New owners need support in order to obtain success with their horse partner.  I want folks to be as successful with horses and have as wonderful of time as I have.  So I teach how to respect the horse and earn his respect too.  It is difficult for some people to trust a horse and even more difficult for a horse to trust them.  My plan has the horse teaching. From the horse, you learn horse patience, trust, respect and how to communicate. After the first few lessons, then you have the basics and now just need  ride to perfect your communicate skills with the horse.

 
  Sometimes when the rider gives mixed signals, the horse gets frustrated and says "NO" as in this picture.  But when the rider relaxed and gave good signals, then the horse becomes calm and relaxed again.

On this site, we plan to provide numerous horse related help items. Since horses aren’t allow to use the Internet very often, they need your help to utilize this information. Owning a horse can be a large investment but we can make it an enjoyable and positive one.

Horses should not be expected to act like a robot, instead, he should be educated that working with humans can be exciting and interesting. Thus we try and develop working partnerships will all our horses and owners. This ensures that we are all having fun, and getting the most pleasure possible from our horses.

So if you want to get the most out of your horse on the trail or out for a simple pleasure ride, Deb at EZ Stables is who you should speak with.
