Ollianna at First Liberty
This is ex racehorse Ollianna, now living safely in a horse centre after having a bad turn in her life. She has to be bitless due to not having most of her tongue so working at liberty is just ideal for her. She is having her first liberty session. We did 10 mins over poles then some walk and stop followed by a few turns at disengaging hind quarters.
Moving on to a walk in a circle then asked her to slow trot. Keeping her in low key and just asking using my hand raised or lowered to move her along. She did a most amazing job, she did go both ways with a nice trot and stopped when asked. For her first session she was wiling and did a really nice job.

Horse Liberty allows you to communicate using stress free and force free methods. It is incredibly powerful to experience and will take you on a journey that will improve your relationship like no other.
