Note from Julie: October 2015

October 2, 2015 by Heidi Melocco 1 Comment

JulieGoodnight.com Logo

Dear friends, We’ve just returned from an incredible 4-day ranch-riding clinic at the C Lazy U Ranch and soon I am headed to Spanaway, Washington, for my last 2-day horsemanship clinic of the year, then I get to go back to C Lazy U for the riding and yoga retreat (treat is the operative word!). Soon we will be releasing my 2016 clinic schedule, but you can always check my … [Read more...]

Nurturing The Try In Your Horse

August 6, 2014 by Heidi Melocco 1 Comment

JulieGoodnight.com Logo

I have lived with and worked with horses for more than half a century. And the older I get, the more appreciation I have for horses and their willingness, generosity and ability to forgive. It never ceases to amaze me how they tolerate some of the crazy things we humans do and how they will keep on trying to please. Over the decades, I have learned that horses thrive on … [Read more...]

Bitless Or Bridle-Less? What Is The Difference?

August 6, 2014 by Heidi Melocco Leave a Comment

JulieGoodnight.com Logo

Bitless or Bridle-less? To me, there’s a big difference. Often when I write about riding my horses bridle-less, people confuse it with the issue of riding bitless. To me, they are totally different subjects. At expos and clinics, I am often asked, “Is it okay for me to ride my horse bitless?” It is presumed in this circumstance that you will use headgear of some sort-- be it … [Read more...]

To Shoe Or Not To Shoe?

August 6, 2014 by Heidi Melocco Leave a Comment

JulieGoodnight.com Logo

To me, this is not a simple yes-or-no, black-or-white answer. Just as there are many good reasons not to shoe your horse, there are many reasons why you might want to shoe. There are few things with horses that are absolute—always this way or never that way. I am generally suspicious when someone takes an unmovable stance on an issue. I worry that such an outlook may … [Read more...]

Barn Rules, Cleanliness & Respect At Feeding Time

August 6, 2014 by Heidi Melocco Leave a Comment

Like most horse trainers, when it comes to my barn, I run a tight ship and I like things very orderly and very systematic. Even though my barn is totally private—no outside horses for training, no boarders, no clients—for my horses and my staff, I have high expectations. Rules for Horses: Having happy, well-behaved horses is a high priority for me. The health and care of our … [Read more...]
