Stumbling Forward

by Crystal Lyons

R

aising kids is such a blast!

Oh it definitely has its times when you feel so stretched and stressed that you can barely remember what it was like to have a quiet, peaceful moment without a kid pulling on you for something. I once heard that being a mom was like being pecked to death by chickens! While that humorous analogy has some truth to it, all in all…raising kids is an awesome experience and an honor. What’s awesome is recognizing the signs of what they’re interested in and possibly the direction that interest will take them in life. When my youngest son, Colt Wrangler was about 3, I came into the house and found him sitting on the kitchen floor with every pot and pan I owned arranged in a semicircle around him.

He had

ose ...it’s th bling m u t s f times o akes t t i t a th e to courag keep g reachin

wooden spoons in hand and with bright eyes and total joy, he said “look mom….different sounds”! I thought….”drummer”!

Sure enough, among other things, he is an excellent drummer!!

My oldest, Tyger Tuff, spent his days dressed in army gear; and one day I caught him jumping off the peak of the roof onto the trampoline with full army dress and helmet. One basic mistake he made that day on his first jump was he forgot to strap his helmet on before jumping. He descended faster than the metal helmet and met it on his way up.

For a few hours the pounding of his head deterred another jump. Where is Tyger now? Well…..not surprising, he’s a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne.

God made us where we naturally gravitate to what’s inside us, if we will simply follow the interests that get stirred up within. Sometimes it takes a few years and a tedious journey through life to stumble on to the right path that was paved in the mind of God for us before we were ever born….but if we keep stumbling forward….we will find it. But it’s those times of stumbling that it takes courage to keep reaching. That’s another reason to recognize what’s within our kids and be an encourager to their giftings, letting them become who God made them to be and not try to stuff them into the image WE want.

Because my own interests were not within the normal boundaries of what

society at the time accepted for girls… .I always seemed to be faced with “bucking the system”. But following my heart has led me on an adventure with my Creator through life, and I’m addicted to that lifestyle. We were never created to simply exist! Though society or peers or family members may not see what’s on the inside of you crying out to “become”…..God sees!

He’s the ultimate “Cheerleader” of our uniqueness! I’ve turned a few pages in life and honestly at this moment, I’m kinda at a loss as to what I’m to do or be….but I can certainly rely on one thing…if I simply keep stumbling forward, I KNOW that the One Who made me and breathed Himself into my DNA will by His grace allow me to fall into the next perfect slot that He has awaiting my arrival. We NEVER need worry that following God will force us into a mold that we don’t fit! So, keep “stumbling forward” and trust that where you land will not be an accident. God is GREATER than our stumblings! But we’ve got to keep forward motion…a parked car can’t be steered.

Helping the This head shy mare is very touchy about her ears

Head Shy Horse If

you handle enough horses, you will eventually come across one that is head shy to one extent or another. The head shy horse has a fear or phobia about being touched or handled around their head. Each horse is different. With some, the problem is subtle and can be easily overcome. With others, the fear and paranoia is so great that they can become very difficult to handle and even dangerous when someone is attempting to do something near their head.

Are horses born head shy or is this something that is created through bad handling or abuse? In my experience, it is often a combination of both. Some horses, regardless of handling or experience, are just naturally sensitive and fearful when handled around their head. Most of these horses, with good handling, can overcome the vast majority of their apprehension and learn to accept human interaction around their head. However, some of the more sensitive horses will insist that the handlers be smooth and correct in their dealings with them or the problem can resurface. There are other horses that have such a laid-backnature that even with poor or crude handling never seem to be too concerned or bothered with activity around their head.

Every horse with head shy issues will 12

HOPE

offering equine assisted activities and therapeutic programs

Miracles happen through horses!

T

hink about how you feel connected to your horse.

Think about the sensation you feel touching the soft fur while grooming. Remember the smell of leather when tacking, and the feel of your body motion while riding your horse. Recall the barn smells also, that organic earthly fragrance.

Imagine the power, acceptance, energy and connectivity horses can have with special needs individuals. Equine Assisted Therapeutic Activities for special needs individuals is a growing alternative that introduces physical, occupational, speech and sensory therapeutic activities to individuals with physical, cognitive and emotional needs. The program allows individuals to experience horsemanship activities based on abilities they possess. Lessons are designed to use those abilities to condition, strengthen and further develop skills.

PATH website states: �Horseback activities encourage stretching and strengthening of underused or underdeveloped muscles, improve posture and coordination, help develop gross and fine motor skills, increase the riders awareness of their body in space, and improve their range of motion. In addition, riders with disabilities increase their self-esteem and self-confidence, learn problem solving skills, and increase their ability to focus and stay on task. All of this while they are having fun.�

PATH educates and certifies instructor and develops safety standards for centers offering equine therapeutic programs.

Therapeutic Horsemanship Centers support the individual through a certified PATH instructor, therapeutic horse, and many volunteers which make the lesson a positive conditioning and learning experience.

Cullman, AL offers HOPE! HOPE is a non- profit, PATH equine therapeutic horsemanship center offering therapeutic riding and EFL(Equine Facilitated Learning). HOPE is dedicated to providing safe therapeutic programs to individuals with special physical, cognitive and emotional needs. Some areas in which individuals can be served include Autism, ADD/ADHD, Down Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy, Cerebral Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Mental Delays, Emotional Disorders, Learning Disabilities, Deafness, Brain and Spinal Cord injuries, Stroke, and Visually impaired.

The Importance of Hoof Care

Fitting the shoe to the hoof….is the Correct way to shoe Fitting the hoof to the shoe…is the wrong way So what is the difference? A professional farrier shoeing for a living every day can tell if a horse has been shod correctly or not by observing the hoof wall thickness and outer appearance, the soles, white line, old nail holes, the worn areas on the steel or aluminum shoes, the angle of the hoof in reference to the pastern and if the shoe was fit to the hoof properly and the right size of shoe was chosen.

The front hooves naturally have a more rounded shape while the hinds are softly square shaped. Manufactured shoes right out of a box are normally stamped out by size, not shape. The farriers’ role is to shape the shoe with a hammer on the anvil at what we call “cold shoeing.” If the farrier owns a propane gas forge, he can heat up the shoe, shape it easily and with less power hits by the hammer to mold and shape that shoe, pull clips if needed, add heels, apply traction like drill tech and perform what we call “hot shoeing.”

And….there are standard sizes that fit most horses…unless hoof loss, cracks, splits, thin walls, soft hooves, etc, etc…may require handmade or “corrective shoes.” Let your farrier determine the best way to approach the job.

A horse with strong healthy hooves with the normal pastern angle that is shod over and over incorrectly will have a long term effect on the health of the hooves and entire horse.

The purpose of shoeing a horse which is the basis of our teaching is “to keep the boney column of the leg in alignment, wherein when the foot strikes the ground, the entire bony column, including the spine, equally absorbs the concussion. In order to achieve this, we must balance the horse. Balance is defined as equal weight distributed all around the shoe.” Thus, our six steps begin to fall into place.

Here is a photo of a horse overdue for re-shoeing. (Most owners will wait

till the shoes fall off. Never wait over 8 weeks, and 6 weeks is recommended) We have drawn a line down the center of the bony column of the leg using a Finnegan Hoof Gauge to show you how “the hoof is NOT in the center of the bone.”You can see how the hoof has grown to one side, out of alignment with the bones. With the hoof being out of alignment, the weight is not being properly distributed and WILL cause lameness throughout the entire body. The movement of the horse will also be incorrect and can cause dangerous interfering problems In purchasing a horse or acquiring a “free” or “rescued” horse, hoof care is as important as the feeding regimen. We suggest you purchase horses with shoes on all four feet and you personally pick up all four feet yourself, hold each for a full minute while cleaning and see how the horse reacts. Call the last farrier and ask if the horse acted calm or was it a struggle and overall opinion. If the horse is barefoot and the seller refuses to shoe the horse, it may be a problem horse that will not stand still and they don’t want to admit it.

You can always call a farrier out to just evaluate it, maybe trim and shoe it at your expense before you purchase it.

A farrier who can talk out the problem areas with you is the best teacher you can find when it comes to healthy hooves in trimming, nutrition, shoeing, etc.

More information for owners is in our DVD, “The Grammar School of Trimming and Shoeing Horses” we offer our customers at the Farriers’ National Research Center along with clinics for owners on hoof care and horsemanship.

here is a saying, if you want to know the value of a second, ask the person that came in second.

Timing!!!

Timing is very critical when it comes to a lot of things especially when teaching horses. If your timing is off, your horse may learn the wrong thing. If you keep asking when you should have stopped asking or you stop asking when you should have kept going. Timing…

You see, because horses learn from the release of pressure, the release must be timed with what you’re asking your horse to do. When it tries, you release immediately. We must be ready to release more than keep going. Our thought process should be I want to take the pressure off, not keep it going.

For example, if you ask your horse to move its hindquarters over by stepping its left hind leg in front of its right hind leg (disengaging) and it does it, ‘STOP ASKING’… Immediately take off the pressure.

When he moves, just stand there not facing the horse but facing away from the horse, leave it alone and let it process what just happened. You see, continuing to face the horse puts added pressure on the horse. You want to turn away and leave the horse alone. Allow it to lick and chew. This also teaches us patience for the horse.

This process gets the horse to thinking.

The licking and chewing. It helps to create a thinking horse.

So, what is it thinking about?

In his own mind he’s thinking, what the heck did I do to get them to leave me alone?

You know what that’s called! It’s called getting your horse to give you the correct answer.

And you don’t stop the pressure until it gives you the correct answer or tries in that direction. Because, if it doesn’t give you the correct answer and you release the pressure, (you quit asking before it does what you are asking) then, my friend, you are teaching your horse the WRONG answer.

You are teaching it the wrong thing.

That is why horses often learn the wrong thing, and we blame the horse. The solution is in our way of teaching. On another note, we have to know what we are teaching..

This is a basic principle in teaching horses but very powerful.

VOLUME 1 | ISSUE 5 2015 Say you saw it in HORSE N RANCH TM

We must have clarity of intention. We must know what it is we are asking the horse to do and the correct manner in which to ask. It is our responsibility to know this. If you want the horse to move its feet, then how do you want it to move its feet. Which feet are you asking to move and how are you asking.

See it in your mind first. See it how you should ask and see how the horse should respond.

Clarity of intention is VERY important.

Be sure you know you are asking the horse correctly, to do what you want it to do, and NEVER blame the horse, it’s a HORSE ….Know before you go…..
