Equine Delights!

I get a lot of horse caltalogs and do quite a bit of online treasure hunting when it comes to horse related items. Finding and drooling over these things (and when I'm lucky, buying) is one of my favorite things to do. Some are cheap, others not so much. Some are for horse and some are for rider, although lets face it, they're pretty much all for the rider cause your horse isn't going to be ordering any of it! So I thought I would share some of my current finds with you! This is a DVD for all of those interested in Natural Horsemanship. There has been some controversy of late about the commercialism of NH, namely the products that one seemingly "needs" to buy in order to be successful and the cost of those products, but the core of NH is still about interacting with your horse in a positive way and forming a partnership. This video takes three well known Natural Horsemen, shows their approach to NH and has a competion between the three. Available from Back In The Saddle.
This is a print available in the Back In The Saddle catalog that I love! It's entitled "Fierce Grace"


Ah the Tucker Cheyenne Frontier Trail saddle, this saddle screams comfortable to me! But at $1600 (not including shipping) I'm going to be saving for a while! Tucker Saddles

Mrs.Pastures Cookies are awesome! My filly loves them and my two horses that preceded her loved them also. They smell so good that I've been tempted to try them but I think they are a little too hard for human teeth! Mrs.Pastures Cookies For Horses ....(they don't actually sell the treats on their site but they have a list of all the retailers that do!)



I LOVE this t-shirt and it will be mine! Find this one and lots of other cute T 's at Back In The Saddle



I was searching for a pair of cotton everyday/training reins (no nylon!) and found this great pair of of split reins with the snap ends for easy change out at CountrySupply for $19.95 (something I could afford,hurray!) It doesn't take much to make me happy!

Hi! I came over from Pony girl. We feed those cookies to our horses and donkey too. They love them!
I really like those cotton reins too. I'm glad I found you know, except I don't know if hubby will like me spending the money! LOL

Great post. I love that how you doin' shirt...that is Joey's line from "Friends!" ;)
Right now My Boy is eating those cookies too, he loves them. I like Bearstone Bites too and My Boy loves them, but they are stickier and I tend to fill my coat pocket so the Mrs. Pasture's work better.
I have not seen that In A Whisper dvd, I had a Parelli group meeting that watched it and I missed it because I was sick. I heard it was pretty good, though.
Have a great weekend!
