I have to admit that I didn't even know we had a national horse until I started my research! He's a handful, but I love him.

I love Canadian horses, I haven't been fortunate enough to work with a full-blooded Canadian yet but we take care of a half Canadian mare and her son, and our two new foals have Canadian in them. I absolutely adore them so it's nice to be able to read about a Canadian horse. And I have to say, it was really nice to be able to read how much you've improved, it makes me look at myself to see if my riding has improved!Cjayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16768186691473461646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8766983761847636077.post-15182970618893728672011-05-04T15:33:57.448-04:002011-05-04T15:33:57.448-04:00Just found this video you might find helpful for g...Just found this video you might find helpful for giving Gem handfed treats. Note that she keeps her arm straight and away from her body when she gives the treat. She's also asking the horse to back up to receive the treat. This will be helpful since Gem's a bit mouthy.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqFith-Zdpksmazourekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029180368325070266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8766983761847636077.post-15740587193294903032011-05-03T05:23:59.861-04:002011-05-03T05:23:59.861-04:00Hi,I'm in Vancouver,B.C.
