At the request of Dr. Albert Villasevil Florensa of Spain, I compiled photos and information about my pasture and natural horsekeeping methods for Dr. Villasevil’s new Spanish version book about the Paddock Paradise. I’ve added a section to this website with that information.

My new neighbor Eliza has a beautiful arena. And she’s a Parelli trainer! Eliza invited me to come over and use her arena, so we installed a new gate between our property and theirs. Today was our second day bringing the horses over to visit and play. Yesterday as soon as we put them in [...]

When we first moved to Florida, I gave the horses sand colic remedies for the first few months. These are expensive products you buy from the feed store and add to their grain for one week out of the month. I tried a few products – Sand Clear, Sand Relief and Natural Psyllium Fiber. Other [...]

When we moved from North Carolina to Florida, we disassembled and reassembled our wonderful free-feeder hay box. Three years in July and still going strong! Every month or so I get an email from someone looking for the page of my old site where I described my hay feeder box. I’ve now made a new [...]

My home-built Cataloochee hay-feeder box is awesome – it saves me a lot of work and the horses have access to hay all the time which is healthier for them. But now they just stand at or near the box all day and I want them to move around the pasture. Since our recent move to [...]

This past weekend I rode Beau for the first time since we moved to Florida. Actually, it was my first mount since last summer in Waynesville. I admit, I was a little bit nervous. The last time I rode him he bucked, and though I didn’t come off, it hurt my feelings that he would [...]

I recently posted an article on Examiner.com titled ‘The 10 great contributions of Cesar Millan’. Most of the feedback was positive with one very nice comment coming from Melissa Peltier, an executive producer of ‘The Dog Whisperer’. She wrote Dear Eve, Thank you so much for a positive article about Cesar! I think you really [...]

I’ve got a new title at Examiner.com – Animal Training Examiner. My editors were concerned that I did not mention clicker training in every article. I suggested changing my title to Humane Animal Training Examiner but they opted to drop the humane part. Rest assured, ‘humane’ is the key to the type of training I [...]
