So refreshing to see a professional with upper level horses encourage turnout, especially herd turnout. Love to see it!!

[@jenniferrebecca2813]

Same! I love turnout. Obviously every horse is different but I see so many amateurs that stable their horses just because it’s “what everyone else does”. Normalise turnout 👏🏻✨

[@titanbuck7]

Just a note: for those who have the experience and own their facility and can control what horses go in with which horses and for how long and can monitor the situation...that is a gamble that should only be made on a personal level. I would never berate someone for doing no turnout with other horses. I have seen more than 4 talented horses have career ending and life endangering injuries that were totally preventable by just NOT turning the horse out. Please understand that it can't always be about the comfort of the horse. Ppl pour in thousands of dollars of hard earned money for these horses...even, and especially "amateurs". We need to remember none of these hores would be here if it weren't for the purpose for which they were bred and bought to perform. Most have a job to do, and that is the reason for their being in the first place.

[@slbequine4624]

@@titanbuck7 not once did I berate those who don’t do herd turnout, and I’m sorry you took it that way. Horses don’t know how much they cost so depriving them of a basic need and using money as an excuse is wrong. In that sense, you’re not really in it for the horses because their health and well-being should always come first, not protecting your investment. Insurance exists for these reasons.

[@TakenByStormEquestrian]

@@titanbuck7 so the horse should be deprived of their lives and to be a horse because… the idiot people…? Unless it’s for a medical reason, there is no excuse to not let your horse be a horse.

[@leonslionessnz6948]

The thoroughbreds behaving like thoroughbreds tearing around the place. The mustangs just chilling out conserving their energy like sensible horses do.

[@typerexc]

It doesn't matter how long it's been...I see Eton, and feel exactly the same way I did when I first saw him. His carriage/spirit is just unmistakable.

[@sophiamorann7674]

Love how everyone's so interested in Ron then Eton's just like umm no get away from me

[@maryfoos2445]

Ron is becoming a "professional eater", love it🤣

[@Hannahs_Mustangs]

He is looking so nice!! That's so funny how the two thoroughbreds are running around while the mustangs are sitting off in the corner saying "Nope, we have been trained, and wont act like crazy maniacs" ❤❤😂😍😍

[@thinkinoutloud.1]

Thanks for showing us how Ron adapted to the pasture and other horses. He has a beautiful gait. He's just gorgeous.

[@IIIRikaIII]

You are remarkable. Let the horses live like this... it's wonderfull. I see that they are very happy. I'd like to see it more often.

[@victoriamorgan7046]

Ron's hind end is insane!

[@jenniferrebecca2813]

He moves so well doesn’t he! I can’t wait to see how he progresses 💕

[@topperhatschire]

Eton looks so so good 😍

[@suzanneyoung8011]

Very astute Elisa to recognize that Ron wasn't completely comfortable being in the large field. Glad you put him in his own paddock. It can take a little while for them to let down off the track as you well know. Who is the herd leader in this field? Is it Eton? Other than his kicking out at Ron it was a little difficult to tell in this short clip since they're mainly resting in the shade.

[@allthumbs3792]

Wonderful to see the group dynamics. Your horses are so well cared for and given the best of feed, training and leisure. They are much more to you than just livestock. And I love to learn a new bit of horsey stuff each time you narrate. I’ve loved horses since childhood, sadly never owned one. Thanks so much!

[@camillecauble5972]

I didn’t know you had that many horses!😂 I love it 😍 Imagine waking up early in the morning to go feed and having that many different personality horses to pet😱🤗

[@kellyfish4281]

Some very contented looking ponies there 🥰

[@rebeccaridgway1117]

I relate to Ron as I’m also most interested in Eton 😍. You’re such an inspiration!

[@lesliemoiseauthor]

Thanks for the update on Hwin.

[@craftyschleichmen209]

I love how in the beginning all the Mustangs are like 🙄 Thoroughbreds 😂. I think that Ron is super cute I love him 😍

[@jenniferrebecca2813]

He’s such an agile machine! Gorgeous boy 😍

[@debrabiderman4275]

All the pretty horses.The intricacies of herd management is fascinating. Horsenalities are so multifaceted. And how they get on (or don't) is just so important when sorting them out.

[@jenniferrebecca2813]

My ethos has always been “Chuck them out and let them sort themselves out!”. They get into rank pretty quickly 😂

[@angiedyer9619]

🙌🥰Absolutely love this aspect of watching the horses sort things out, watching them socialize etc. could watch them all day! Thank you for this video😉 my haflinger was the one in the herd of TBs that would stand and watch everyone run and settle issues!🤣🤣 so happy to see rune and fledge. So much love for them. Jackson and hwin look so good😍❤️

[@cookiecatlover8193]

I love how the mustangs are like "dude, just chill"

[@typerexc]

I'm reading "Won-Won" right now, so this is especially fun. :) Beautiful mover. Love that high-spirited flag for a tail.

[@lemmebeawinnerequestrian7555]

I love how you listen to your horse's and give them the time they need to adjust to their new life. So exciting, can't wait to see more of Ron. 😍🐎🦄🐴

[@ally8080]

Would you ever a vlog about how you choose what horses to group together in a herd?

[@jackiec6636]

Didn't realise mustangs were so tall. I thought they were shorter.

[@Squimbelina]

He's got a gorgeous trot.

[@onlyClaire]

Poor Ron, Eton doesn't have patience for ill mannered babies.

[@kayceadair]

I love these vlog videos! Hope you’re doing well!

[@Kelly_Ben]

I always learn something new from your videos, even if it's just a reminder to watch and 'listen' to the horse.

[@coolerkittycattoy8795]

Gorgeous farm. What ever happened to Wy? believe that was the talented paint mustang?

[@WallaceEventing]

He’s still here. He’s just in another field.

[@Chunkylurker]

I love etons gothic anti social attitude haha 🖤

[@piperjoseph8207]

He is so relatable lol

[@donnaworrall9353]

Yes he is😍

[@susanhoumller2937]

Could you maybe film a little bit with/about Hwin? I know she's being treated, and I definately don't want to worsen her treatment, but maybe just a little video where you talk about some of the other cool things you do? ❤

[@mollymcquillan8940]

Wow hwin has lightened up so much!!

[@nicolep4733]

The mustangs are just like “ I can’t be bothered” 😂

[@unrulycrow6299]

Ron certainly has some impressive movement!

[@millystar1628]

Eton is gorgeous!!

[@carterb9486]

do hind and front shoes need to be removed to safely introduce horses in pasture?

[@WallaceEventing]

Hind shoes with toe grabs.

[@piperjoseph8207]

Only if they have sharp points like thoroughbreds sometimes do!

[@carterb9486]

oh okay no toe grabs just worried about adding “weapons” into the mix thanks! i appreciate the reply

[@donnaworrall9353]

A lot of barns prefer no back shoes if being turned out into a herd.

[@titanbuck7]

Can you touch on sand colic a few times through your videos? There are ppl who move to the FL, GA, and Carolinas who don't know the details of sand colic and how to prevent colic from sand. In fact, wildly expensive and talented horses have died from it so I was hoping you can educate ppl by mentioning this lesser known issue that can come with wintering or living in southern states. 🥂

[@kari8187]

Eton: Nuh uh 😂

[@smokedoliver1]

Where’s Johnnie?

[@WallaceEventing]

In his field :)

[@judymccarthy5968]

Where's our pretty boy, Wyeth?? Love that pony!

[@judymccarthy5968]

ooops--shoulda read through the comments first--I see-Wy's in another field. Hope to see him featured soon!

[@MLOCharmer]

Daubi is shorter in the neck department, how does a shorter neck help in the eventing world? The Ronald McDonald has huge potential!

[@Winnie-kn7jb]

I remember you having a paint mustang, what happened to him? Didn’t he have surgery?

[@WallaceEventing]

Yup. He competed all last year. Had a little vacay and is heading to the championships in June.

[@Winnie-kn7jb]

@@WallaceEventing cool! I was wondering since I never saw him anymore, thanks!

[@WallaceEventing]

There are a lot of his competition videos. He just had the spring off since I had 4 upper level horses running and he’s just turning 5.
