LOOK HERE… NOT THERE!…

by Crystal Lyons Ever watch a magician work? It’s all about slight of hands. He’s a master at getting your attention drawn to something away from where the real action is happening. I’m convinced that our news networks are pro’s at this. They are experts at keeping us distracted with whatever they WANT us to feed on while keeping our attention away from what they DON’T want us to know.

Oh, I’m not saying that what’s played on tv’s across the United States isn’t happening, just that it’s spiced up a bit. Like good Cajun cooking,’ cuz who wants something bland to feed on? Emotions sell. That’s just the raw truth.

Fear, anger, hatred and racism are all good manipulators. Did I mention fear?

Fear is a HUGE emotional sell.

This method has been used multiple times to keep us occupied with something trivial, while less than honorable politicians were laying the pork fat so thick on a bill that if passed would grease their pockets for the next 50 years! But here lately, what’s been forced upon us to wade through on the news is actually hiding some totally awesome things! Information that corrupt, power hungry people are scared spitless we will find out. Yes… GOOD things are happening behind the scenes while the news media keeps us focused on all the irrational craziness going on.

Did you know that to date… just under 200,000 sealed indictments have been issued just in the last three years? That’s right… count those zeros.

Corruption is being hunted down like a pack of good hounds after a fox and you better believe… high ranking, powerful people in government as well as CEO’s and even movie stars are not sleeping well right now! Thousands… literally thousands of children have already been rescued from child pornography and sex trafficking slavery with more being rescued daily. Not only that, but the high ranking people who have made millions from the sex slavery rings are becoming known and will surely face the justice they deserve.

While we’ve been “quarantined” much has been getting done without being seen or known by the public. Is it coincidental that a large number of judges are being strategically placed, replacing judges that were known to be on the take? There’s a reason. When it comes to the perpetrators of heinous crimes, the “catch and release” system just doesn’t work for a free society… if we want to STAY FREE. People have been wanting to see justice. But before those known to be lifelong criminals can actually be tried for their crimes, corrupt politicians, judges, lawyers and police must be replaced by honest men

and women. This can’t be done overnight.

The swamp runs deep and wide.

So what am I saying in all this? While we’ve seen nothing good or encouraging on all the main stream media channels for months and months, do NOT buy into the fear and pessimism they are selling! It’s just the slight of hands that every polished magician knows how to do. Main stream media is bought and paid for… they have an agenda. If you haven’t figured that out by now, you’re not paying attention.

Justice IS coming to America! We are in a war! Those involved in the corruption are fighting for their lives… literally. Stay alert and on guard because the hornet’s nest has been kicked and many bad people have been “unleashed” by their handlers. But GOD has our nation in His heart and hands and AMERICA’S BEST DAYS ARE YET AHEAD OF US!

We work to alleviate the suffering and senseless slaughter of domestic equine and to provide an environment for rehabilitation and carefully select adoptive homes At the age of 12 Victoria rescued her first horse. Since 1968 she has always taken in the horses that everyone has given up, trying to turn their life around by giving them one last chance. In 1991, orphaned nurse mare foals were brought to Victoria’s attention. Since then, Nurse Mare Foal Rescue is our main priority and has progressively grown to save THOUSANDS of foals. We offer a neonatal and intensive care facility for orphan nurse mare foals. We provide the foals with the necessary attention in order to secure a future in adoptive homes. Annually, we save 150-200 throw away foals from a certain death and provide them with the opportunity to a healthy life. One or two at a time, horses have come in and out of her life inspiring her to firmly believe that there is always a horse out there in need of refuge, and always a need for someone to feel responsible and intervene on that animal’s behalf. Establishing the Last Chance Corral in 1986 was the realization of her vision of creating a muchneeded facility to offer horses asylum.

Today, the Last Chance Corral proudly offers horses hope, shelter, and opportunity regardless of their situation or problems. Be it psychological

or physiological we are committed to addressing the individual needs of each rescued animal. Our work begins with developing an individual diet, treatment regiments, and a training program for each horse according to its needs. When a horse has been sufficiently rehabilitated we go about the work of finding appropriate adoptive homes that suit the horse’s needs and abilities.

Photogenic Quarter Horse Captures 2019 Farnam SuperMask SuperModel Title

By Cynthia McFarland

When Stephenie Bjorkman decided to enter her horse’s photo in Farnam’s 2019 SuperMask(r) SuperModel contest, she had no idea how much the competition had grown.

“I follow Farnam online and saw the contest; I thought Maxwell would love this. I had a good picture of him and just thought I’d enter. I didn’t realize how competitive it was,” says Stephenie, an Arizona native and small business owner from the Scottsdale area.

“We were very pleased with the participation in the 2019 SuperMask(r) SuperModel Contest. We more than doubled the number of entries from last year. The word is spreading,” notes Anna Brunetti, Digital Marketing Manager for Farnam. “Over 2,000 horse owners submitted photos from all over the country. The entries included many different breeds, colors, sizes, and ages, each image as unique as the next. It’s great seeing all these horses so loved by their owners.”

Every entry was carefully studied by contest officials and after much deliberation, the top ten entries were identified, and those ten images were then submitted to a diverse panel of judges to determine the winner.

“The SuperMask(r) SuperModel contest is a great way for Farnam fans to showcase the outstanding care they give their horses all year long. As we all know, it is continuous, quality care that keeps horses happy and healthy for the long haul, and it showed in the caliber of entries we received. Many of the contenders put in valuable time and lots of elbow grease to ‘spit shine’ their horses for this contest,” notes Martha Lefebvre, Senior Marketing Manager for Farnam.

After Stephenie received notification that her horse was chosen as the winner, she was amazed at the abundance of prizes he’d won, an impressive fly control and grooming package worth $1,000 in Farnam products.

“I didn’t realize I was going to get so much,” she says. ‘”I’ve been in horses since I was six years old and have always used Farnam products. When I opened the prize box, I realized I used most of them already. But there were some products I’d never tried before, so that was cool.”

Of course, another big part of the win was that Maxwell would have a professional photo session so his image can be used in upcoming advertisements for Farnam’s ever-popular SuperMask(r) fly mask.

“I told Maxwell, ‘you’re going to be a model,’ and he is a horse who wants to have his photo taken. He has a look about him,” says Stephenie. “I’ve always loved spending time pampering and grooming him, so this is proof it’s worth it.”

“A well-cared for horse doesn’t happen overnight. We appreciate that it takes hard work, total commitment and a lot of love,” says Martha, adding that plans are in the works for the 2020 contest.

HORSE-CENTERED LIFE Stephenie has shared her life with horses ever since she was a young girl. Growing up, she team roped and was very involved in rodeo.

Although reining and reined cow horse competition always appealed to her, she just didn’t have the right horse. At least, not until recently.

Four years old at the time, Electric Java, was a rich sorrel Quarter Horse gelding with a striking blaze and a kind eye. He was talented, sound and personable. Although he’d only been shown once or twice at that time, the horse had a big stop and was impressive. It didn’t take more than one ride for Stephenie to fall in love.

Electric Java goes by the barn name of “Maxwell” and the duo has been making their mark in the show world. “When you take him in the show pen, he wants you to be happy with him,” says Stephenie.

Stephenie rides as a non-pro, so their accomplishments have taken time and she gives all the credit to her “consistently amazing” horse. Maxwell has a laid-back personality and nothing seems to faze this handsome gelding. His personality endears him to everyone who meets him. An accomplished competitor, he’s definitely successful, but it’s more than that.

“He’s gentle with dogs, kids, and my minis; I have four miniature horses and he thinks he’s one of them,” laughs Stephenie. “If he could have a job of being groomed and photographed, that would be his job. He loves the attention. He’s a pet, but he’s not annoying, or at least not to me!”

“It took a long time to find one like him,” she says happily. “I have owned enough horses to know he’s a once-in-a-lifetime horse and a dream come true!”

TO ENTER THIS YEAR’S SUPERMASK SUPERMODEL CONTEST, visit www.farnam.com/SMSM2020 and submit your entry before the July 17, 2020 deadline. Only one entry allowed per person. Contest winner to be notified on or about August 21, 2020.

In Praise of Ponying

A

re you able to lead a another horse from yours, and is your animal able to be led by a another horse?

You should be. Leading is not just a skill for packers but is an essential skill for every trail rider.

Put simply, ponying is the act of leading a horse alongside the animal you’re riding. It sounds simple but it’s a multifaceted job of riding your own horse while also paying attention to another, all while holding the reins in one hand and a lead rope in the other.

Why would anyone want to do this? Here’s a few examples: • Introduce a new horse to the trail • Lead a pack horse • Assist another rider • Condition a young or older horse In each of the above cases, you’ll need to know how to pony correctly to keep you, your horse, and the ponied horse safe.

Preparing You Being ready to pony also means that you need to be comfortable with what you must do when ponying another horse. Get used to riding your animal one-handed. Be able to rein with either hand while holding a lead in the other. Be able to switch hands on the go.

Preparing your Riding Animal Before attempting to lead another animal, your riding horse, or mule, should be comfortable with having a rope all around him. He needs to be OK with feeling a lead rope alongside his hindquarters, and even for the possibility that the rope might get around a leg or under his tail.

When I’m working with my animals I’m constantly tossing the lead rope around their hips, along their legs, and asking them to bend their necks and come around to face me. I do 16

VOLUME 6 | ISSUE 6 2020

this from all sides, left, right, front, and back. Once you can do that from the ground it’s time to try the same exercises from the saddle.

Your riding animal should calmly allow ropes to touch his legs and tail, and should be able drag logs without spooking.

You don’t have to be a professional roper and a lariat isn’t necessary. Just swing a lead rope to accustom your horse to the motions on both sides. Be careful.

I feel that rope training is an essential exercise for every animal. Your riding animal needs to be responsive and not afraid of a rope rubbing on it.

Preparing the horse to be led It’s my opinion that every trail horse should be able to be ponied. There are any number of reasons why, but my biggest is that if you depart your ride unexpectedly (say in a helicopter) your riding partner should be able to safely pony your horse back to the trailhead.

Start from the ground before you start leading from another horse. The horse you plan on ponying should be able to be led, and led well, from the ground before you try it from the saddle. Once the pony horse prospect has good ground manners and is light and alert at the end of a lead rope, transitioning to ponying won’t be traumatic.

Work from the ground until your prospect is consistent and responsive from a distance.

This ground work not only will prepare your horse to be led from horseback it will help him or her become a much better, more respectful, partner that doesn’t pull or crowd you. Both good things.

The equipment Functional saddle with a solid tree – treeless or flexible tree saddles can deform and unevenly distribute pressure causing pain to your riding horse.

will reinforce your cues.

12 foot lead – I’ve used both shorter and longer leads. 12 feet works best for me.

Gloves – Rope burn is a thing and it’s not pleasant.

The dally Once the three of you (your riding horse, the horse to be ponied, and yourself) are ready to head out you’ll be tempted to use your saddle horn. Don’t. Use the horn to hold lunch not tie off your lead rope. Should a ride become eventful while ponying you want to instantly release all connections to the pony horse. It’s much better to dismount and pick up the lead than to be dragged off the side of a

mountain because you were hard tied to an animal that lost its footing.

Successfully ponying is dependent upon the response and respect you develop on the ground. If your horse handles well and is responsive on the halter rope on the ground, that training will come through when you pony him. Take the time to develop Robert Eversole; those skills.

or responsive bit to get control of a horse who is more reactive at a show will only intensify the horse’s reactions even more.

Keep the same bit and use the mildest bit possible to promote relaxation. A relaxed mouth will always give you a more responsive horse.

Western Dressage: A Closer Look at Tack

By Lynn Palm

A

ny time you are getting into a different discipline, it is important to know what tack is allowed in competition.

The smart rider will research ahead of time to learn all the rules about what tack is permitted and what is not.

The Western Dressage Association of America is very new, only a few years old. The association’s rules can be found at their website, http:// westerndressageassociation.org/. Please read all the tack and attire rules. Let’s summarize what tack is required:

I recommend practicing at home with the tack you plan to use at the show. This is so important!

Train with at home the bridles, bits, and saddles/ pads that you would use at a show. This allows you and your horse to be familiar with the tack and helps avoid unpleasant surprises on show day.

Most people will have a nice show saddle that fits the horse and rider, but never use it unless they are at a show. Instead of using their “good” saddle at home to school and practice in, they may have a “working” saddle, but one of poor quality that does not fit the horse and rider. If you want to ride well you have to have properly fitting tack for you and your horse. Properly fitting tack will allow you to have better balance in the saddle.

Bits are another topic. Some people will train at home with a milder bit and use a harsher bit at the show. I advise against this practice because it will only cause problems. When a horse goes to a show, he is in new and unfamiliar surroundings. A new place will always make a horse more sensitive. Using a more severe

HEADSTALLS AND BITS • Western headstalls - a western cavesson is optional. A western cavesson (flat, rolled, braided, or plain, with an adjustable noseband), or pencil bosal with or without a get-down rope with space

for two fingers placed between the cavesson and the jowl of the horse is allowed. No metal (except for the buckle on the cavesson), studs of any kind, or other substances can be used in conjunction with or as part of a Western cavesson.

• Smooth snaffles, 3-piece smooth snaffles, or mullen mouthpiece bits are allowed. Use the snaffle for any level test and all ages of horses. Snaffles are ridden with two hands. Refer to website for acceptable mouthpieces.

• Tapaderos are permitted except in Western Dressage Equitation.

• Curb bits can be used on any age of horse and any level.

They can be ridden with two hands. If you refer to the tack rules, you will find the specific sizes and types of bits that are legal. (You should also review the section on illegal bits so you don’t use the wrong one.)

• Western saddles that are permitted include stock saddles, work saddles, Aussie, or native or side saddle can be used. Silver on saddles will not count over good working equipment. A horn on the saddle is not required, but Western style fenders are required.

• A breastplate and/or crupper may be used.

• A hackamore (bosal) is permitted on a horse of any age, and at any level. A hackamore includes a bosal, rounded in shape and constructed of braided rawhide or leather, and must have a flexible non-metallic core attached to a suitable headstall. No other material of any kind is to be used in conjunction with the bosal, i.e. steel, metal or chains. Bosals may be wrapped with smooth electrical tape to prevent rubbing.

SADDLES AND WHIPS

• Whips are allowed no longer than 47.2” including lash.

Be sure to peruse the website for more information on tack. And check out the section on illegal equipment, as it shows other miscellaneous Western tack that is not permitted.

With my accomplished horseman/saddlemaker husband, we have designed a Western Dressage saddle (www. lynnpalm.com under “Boutique” on the home page). It’s designed specifically for this new and fun competition.

Hope you truly enjoy this sport — my next articles will give you more information about Western Dressage!
