She's Something Fancy (Journey with Horses Book 5) Kindle Edition

Fancy was first trained using "Pain, Fear, and Intimidation" methods. She kicked two farriers and a husband after her thirty day first training torture. Her next "colt start" was a good training experience with a trail rider who also rode her in a parade. Fancy was "rideable", but not a fan of humans. I owned a lame horse and needed a rideable horse.Fancy is related to a stallion and two mares I had owned.I borrowed Fancy, and she kicked me! I learned she needed a third Colt Start development, but this time it was with my natural horsemanship Parelli trainers , Tony and Jenny Vaught, living in Florida. I bought her. Oh Boy! This third "Colt Start' worked. When I got her back to ride, she had just won Reserve World Grand Champion Ranch Horse.Fancy's desire to please other humans like me did not exist. After developing her further with a local wonderful local trainer, I finally got permission to ride her. Thus, Fancy's story is now a book filled with MUCHO humor, Much suffering (on my part), and Horsemanship Knowledge.It takes a long time to develop trust, bonding and contentment for a horse tortured for 30 days. Occasionally Fancy talks to me in the stories. Luckily, she doesn’t know how to swear. There just might be an amazing bridleless demonstration and a Swan Lake finesse costume demonstration near the end of the book, but the story continues until the happy surprise ending. Fancy is a fox trotter who can do flying lead change which rarely happens with fox trotters.Laughing is spontaneous throughout the book. Coaching the human how to do flying changes takes up many chapters!Fancy is a happy horse now and the ending is amazing. Horsemanship and Susan’s humorous stories fill the book.This is the fourth book where again my 30 years of taking lessons and showing proves I might not know everything about horses! No, I lied. I know everything about horses by the end of This Book! Join Fancy and I negotiate the WORLD! Read more
