EPISODE 31: THE PARTNERSHIP JOURNEY OF KAT & ROGER

When Shelley asked about doing an episode about my Roger I wasn’t sure we would have enough to talk about but he really has brought together so many aspects of horsemanship and my life.

In this weeks episode we tell the many stories surrounding Roger. He has been anything but easy, suffering from Australian stringhalt not long after I got him, we’ve also had some dental issues and more recently working through some soundness issues.

In the beginning with Roger there were two major problems. Firstly, he was struggling physically which meant that he had negative associations with being ridden , and as such had learnt evasions to do his best to get out of it. Secondly, he had me trying to ride him and he had freaked me out so much, that I was just sitting up there as a passenger and not really telling him where to go which just confirmed for him that was world was scary.

Listen to the episode to hear how one horse can take you on a wild adventure of personal development
