It is that time of year again and where did the time go.

So much has happened this year both personally and professional – it was a year of growth, revaluation and more growing.

I truly say this with much love about my clients who don’t make it feel like a job, it is a passion of caring for horses and for owners to get the best from their horse. I have had some challenges this year but ultimately we have had lots of success in getting horses back out and enjoying their owners. I love to share and have you part of the recovery, that is just my nature.

I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart and there are few individuals I would like to make special mention:

• Carla & Aussie – thank you for being my first sponsored horse. You really put your boy first and foremost which is such in line with my ethics. Congratulation on achieving all you did this year and I am sure you will do bigger and better in 2023.

• Daina, Georgia, Zak, Koda and the doggie crew – thank you for the chats, laughs and placing your babies health before anything else. Georgia you are an amazing rider and have done wonders, keep believing in yourself and your ability. Looking forward to working with you on the pony club.

• Kait & Hartley – thank you for again placing your horse before everything else and following my exercises, you guys have done amazing this year with showing so proud of you both.

• Meg and her crew – it is always nice to link in with someone who has the same values and just wants that connection with owners and horses. – EVERYONE ELSE stay tuned as hopefully Meg and I will be working together with a clinic in 2023.

•  

I am hoping that you all get to spend lots of time with your four legged loved ones doing what you like to do best. Keep safe and look after yourself.

Merry Christmas to your family and you xoxoxo
