šŸŽ Starting a Full Groundwork Program with My Horse | Diesel’s 2026 Training Plan.In this video, I’m introducing the groundwork program I’ll be working through with my horse, Diesel, as part of our training focus moving into 2026. Groundwork has always been a cornerstone of my horsemanship, and this year I’m committing to going through a structured, progressive program from start to finish..I’ll be using Clinton Anderson’s groundwork program as my primary framework — working through the Fundamentals, Intermediate, and Advanced levels — while also sharing how I plan to adapt the program to Diesel as an individual horse and sprinkle in additional exercises where appropriate..I also talk openly about Diesel’s shivers diagnosis, what that means for his training, and how I’m approaching this program with his long-term soundness, mental state, and physical health in mind. At this point, shivers is not limiting his ability to perform, but it is something I’ll be monitoring closely as we move forward..I’ll be documenting this process honestly — the progress, the challenges, and what I learn along the way — so if you’re interested in realistic horsemanship, groundwork done with intention, and life with horses in Alberta, you’re in the right place..KL
