  • My retired horse makes me so proud!! Nita is 20 years old and retired now . She is due her foal in 6 weeks ! 😬. So this little video was taken at a demo in October last year and after this she was only ridden one more time a month later at the horsemanship showcase event where she officially retired 😞. I thought some of you would really appreciate seeing this and considering she was getting stiffer never missed a beat and made me super proud as she always did .

    Nita is such a brilliant advocate for mares.they get a bad rap for being stroppy, hormonal and sometimes dangerous but she really is one of the smartest, responsive horses av ever watched.a credit to you,Steve 👍

      Every mare I have ever had has been amazing. They are so intuitive, I just love them.
      When I first started with horses I was once told "you can bully a gelding but have to reason with a mare". On the whole I'd agree with it

      I have a wonderful Appaloosa Mare who is a joy to work with, she is kind and very willing to give her all……but I had to earn her respect and she tried to get away with everything at first. She is my first mare, I love her.

      Anyone who blames behavior on a horse’s sex or coat color is an immediate red flag from me. Sure, certain behavior can be more expected of certain horses based on their sex or even guaranteed (examples: stallions being interested in mares and mares going into heat) but outside of those few cases every horse is different. I have heard far too many stories of horses with serious issues (medical and behavioral) going untreated because their owner tossed it aside as, “Oh, he’s just being a chestnut,” or, “Oh, she’s just being a mare.”

    Steve, Nita is the horse she is because you are the man you are and the relationship you two have is precious and what a world it would be if we could all strive to have this bond with our animals 💕💕💕

    God bless her heart, Nita is tuned in to you
    by milliseconds, Steve. It’s almost as if you’re one. She’s brilliant and unique, I’ve never seen
    another horse like her. And you recognized it in her and allowed her brilliance and love to shine! I’d love to know Nita’s story from the beginning some day.
    Please give Nita a kiss and a stroke from me, would you Steve? Thanks!

    I rode horses for a guy who raised them when I was a little girl. He sent a horse to a trainer and when tony came back I got to ride him once. He was a palomino Fox trotter and I rode in bareback he followed every command by voice or leg movements. I'm from the Missouri Ozarks, They sold Tony Canadian mounties. He was a beautiful horse

    Steve, many harness horses will respond similarly to Nita. It is certainly something to be proud of, yet I wonder how much she is going off your body and how much off your voice? Since you say out loud what you are doing, as you ask her to perform the task, could she be like a well trained and responsive harness horse going on the voice?
