Pegasus, came into our lives 8 years ago. He is a “unicorn”. He has gently looked after so many people given them a dream ride and made them believe that they can fly. He is a perfect gentleman.
He always gives so much more than he gets. He has given so many people back their confidence to ride again. I think we are now up to 4 additional people. He is an amazing teacher, showing that patience and consistency will build trust.
But this horse continues to attract people who need him when they need him. Over and over again he has given people their dreams.
The dream pony that everyone needs in their life. He is my super star in leadership lessons as he finds the shy, unsure people and then shows them how to find their inner leader. He builds calm assertive energy in every life he touches.
He is truly magical and he lives up to his name.
Meet Pippi the wonder pony. This is an incredible mare who is one of the most affectionate horses I have owned. She loves cuddles and people. She is fantastic at helping people find their calm-assertive leadership. She so talented as an equine-assisted coach because she is so caring and maternal. She works so hard to help people find their inner balance she rewards it every time. She has not just changed my life she has changed so many others too. She is beautiful and so talented that she is the go to pony for what ever I have on.
She has lots of names when she is being a dressage superstar she has a stage name. “Shiprock Queen of Diamonds” When she is just hanging out in the paddock she gets lots of names including the princess just because she is a princess.
