I need some tips on how to get a horse to take a pill. I have an older horse who could really benefit from an arthritis med. The problem is, he hates the taste of it and he can sniff it out of any treat. I put it in an apple 🍎 and he spit it out. Does anyone have any tricks of the trade to help hide this pill?

Equine facial sutures are the fibrous joints that connect the bones of a horse’s skull. Although these sutures are often described as fused in adult horses, they retain slight mobility and can be influenced by trauma, dental imbalance, halter pressure, or poll restrictions.

By releasing restrictions along the sutures and associated soft tissues, we can improve relaxation and whole-body balance through the interconnected fascial system

Safety! There is a saying that goes something like " If you are fond of a horse and wish to do him a real favor- train him well" This doesn't mean that you have to bully them into submission but I does mean that you give them the tools to be able to work easily with other humans. This keeps horses safe and keeps those that care for them safe as well (farriers, vets, body workers etc) . I am so happy to see trainers offering courses like this to help owners learn how to work with their horses in a productive way that honors everyone involved.

Boundaries, Energy, and Clarity is almost here.
Two sittings, one this evening and another this coming Wednesday. Sign up in comments.

This 90-minute Emotional Horsemanship webinar is for horse people who want real, non-violent solutions to one of the most common problems in training:
Boundaries taught through intimidation
Energy taught through escalation
Clarity confused with control

We will explore how these foundations work when force is removed, and how horses respond when structure is offered with calmness, precision, and respect for the horses experience.

If you’ve been looking for a steadier way forward, this is your invitation.

Registration closes soon.

Two sittings available! I am excited to see you there!

Hello everyone! I know I have been pretty much MIA on this page since my neck surgery 18 months ago. I took a break from posting here because I wasn't sure what I wanted to say anymore. During the time I was in the hospital, my horse had a bad injury and it has taken him just as long to recover. Rehabbing myself and my horse simultaneously has changed my approach a lot. Healing happens in its own time. It was eye opening but also VERY frustrating as I started to see things from a different perspective.
(change is hard! 😉 )
Today, I believe that all of this change has helped me tremendously in my work with horses. As I shifted my focus from trimming, it allowed space for other things in my life and I am thankful for that. I have been staying very busy with Masterson Method bodywork as well as doing some coaching on the side. I've been taking some classes in other modalities of bodywork and it's been very fun. I plan on getting back to posting more material on here soon.
🥕 Get in touch if you want to book an MM session!
🗓️February and March are booked but I have openings in April.
💬Text is the best way to get in touch with me. ☮️

Longissimus Dorsi ✨
Today on the calendar we’re turning our attention to one of the most important muscles in the horses body, the Longissimus dorsi.

This strong muscle runs along either side of the spine from the poll to the pelvis, forming a major part of the horse’s topline. It plays a huge role in spinal stabilisation, posture, propulsion, and collection.

🙌 There are many things you can do to support this muscle:

🎄Correct, progressive training to build strength without overloading. Groundwork like poles, long-reining, and hillwork to activate the topline.

🎄 Regular massage and physiotherapy to maintain flexibility and reduce tension. Good job you are following our calendar this month 😉

🎄 Ensuring saddle fit and rider balance to avoid undue pressure.

Don’t forget to watch our mini vlog today treating this area 🎥 https://woldsequinemassage.co.uk/course/christmas-2025-advent-vlogs
