Ross Cooper tackles the subject of foal handling, should we handle them early or leave them be?
I have always enjoyed working with foals; it is so very rewarding to be part of their early stages of training. They are a complete canvas, with an innocent yet mischievous quality that can never fail to make you smile. Though being as blank a canvas as a young foal is, it does put a level of responsibility on us as handlers or trainers to do them justice and to do the best by them, for them. Here, I hope I help you to do just that!
Join us as we sit down with remarkable thought leaders, equestrian experts, and equine advocates on a journey of curiosity and discovery.

What comes to your mind when you hear holistic therapies? There are so many different modalities to help our horses, it can sometimes be confusing about what they all do.
For a horse to be in optimum health, their mind, body & spirit must be vibrant and nurtured, with all three aspects being in balance. They have a mind, they have a body, but they are spirit. Their spirit is their core and their foundation to everything, this is why their spiritual health is crucial and must be cared for throughout their lifetime.
