In this episode, Emily, Shawna, and Shelley talk about resting and restoring horses as the year comes to a close. Not all horses benefit from long periods of rest, so they discuss ideas for making arena time fun and playful. They also talk about dealing with wild horses and offer some tips. Our drink this episode is a wine from Saviah Cellars, a lovely winery in Walla Walla, WA.
