That’s a great idea..we walk through woods too and if I take them to any trails about 30 minutes from here in the mountains we have potential of running into black bears 😳
I’m going to look them up on that website. Did you have some made for minis or is it kind of one size fits all? They definitely look cute on 💕

Today we went back to our positive reinforcement focused training. I had taken a break from it to review for a few weeks and to work on feet handling, cleaning out, and rasping, but now is time to get back to more fun low stress behaviors! Bliss and I had an excellent session working on calm default/treat manners on both sides, then we worked on targeting, leading with her following my body cues, and stopping with body cues. She did very well and stayed relaxed almost the entire time. I could definitely tell that she was actively thinking about staying calm and working through what I was asking of her. I am proud of her, and ready to start working on more behaviors and cues for future horse agility training. I then took out Ella for a good brush and a walk, and snapped this super cute picture of her mane being blown in the wind. 🥰🌬️🐴
What a great day and also a great pic 🥰

They make each set custom, and make miniature sizes of everything. ❤️ They also host giveaways quite often from their FB page. That is how I got my first set.

Bliss and I had a fun day today with our positive reinforcement training session. We reviewed calm default/treat manners, leading and halting with just body cues, targeting, and then started the beginnings of head down with the target to help shape the behavior. Bliss stayed very calm and focused the entire time, I was so proud of her focus for an almost yearling. We then enjoyed a grazing walk in the sunshine. ☀️🍀🐴

I just love that my ponies both always are ready to train or go on walks by standing at the gate and then self halter. Gone are the days of my youth of catching my horses on twenty acres to go on a ride. LOL! Today I just reviewed behaviors with Bliss, just adding a little difficulty to a few of them. She did very well, and is improving in each session this week. I then took both Bliss and Ella on short walks. It is starting to get pretty hot, and I need to get used to it slowly. 🤣☀️🐎
