Yearling Trailer Training

Part of Jackie Brittain’s training and handling of our foals includes introducing them to the horse trailer when they are around a year old.   She does this in an easy low stress manner asking them to progress a little every day.   By the end of the process they will walk on confidently,  stand in the trailer, and then calmly unload.   A few carrots helps get the job done!   These photos were taken about a week into the training.

Heartsong arrives in CA

Scandias Heartsong is now at Merriewold and is settling in well.  Aside from the fact that we have no green grass…we think she will enjoy the climate, the other Morgans and her new status as broodmare.
