Spring/Summer 2005

Kudos! In its first week on the shelves at Tractor Supply Company - Women & Horses Magazine has outperformed every other title available. Women & Horses Magazine was the best selling title in all 500 stores! Spring and summer is the time for new growth and new ideas.....in the spirit of spring, this new magazine has become a bright star on the equestrian horizon - not just any magazine, but the only one of its kind. GaWaNi Pony Boy, Executive Editor says it best: "Women & Horses Magazine is the world's only magazine devoted exclusively to horse women, their needs and interests. Women & Horses Magazine celebrates the special bond that so many women enjoy with their horses.  A Woman's love of horses is reflected in many aspects of her life -work, home, family and friends.

August - September 2004

Thinking of fall......the amazing colors of changing leaves, cooler temperatures, apple cider and pumpkins, hurricanes - hurricane's? Well at least in Florida we were welcoming in fall with several, first there was Charlie.....Pony was conveniently absent from the su nshine state at a Horses Teaching People Course in Michigan, and a fabulous Course it was! Folks from Michigan have been contacting our offices constantly for the past several years - When is he coming to Michigan?! The HTP Course was hosted by Patricia DeMeyer who did an incredible job, and sent us some incredible photos from the training sessions during the weekend. Thanks to all the folks who came out as auditors, and here's a photos of the students who attended.

Then c ame Frances the Enormous. Pony managed to be roaming around the streets of St. Augustine during the storm with his son Blaise and his friend, local surfer Shane. Here's a photo taken by a local fan who spotted Pony during the storm - thanks to Irma Mahm for sending this in!

July 2004

July was a very busy month, Horses Teaching People Courses were held in Maryland, Connecticut, and New York which was sponsored by Triple Crow n Feeds. A special appearance was made by the horse that portrayed Seabiscuit in the popular movie, and Pony worked with him in an evening demonstration. The Maryland and Connecticut Courses were HTP - 2, the riding course, and everybody had an incredible time and learned lots about their horses! To read praise from participants, be sure to visit the new Team Pony Boy Message Board.

Between several of his Courses, Pony managed to take time for a backpacking trip, most was on the Appalachian Trail through CT and MA, and then headed over the Adirondacks for a few days to hike some favorite spots before heading to the clinic in Elmira, NY.

This lovely book reviews other horse training methods as well, such as Monty Roberts, Sylvia Loch, Kelly Marks, Richard Maxwell, Pat Parelli, Linda Tellington-Jones and Sylvia Stanier.

What the book says about Pony's methods....:" definite similarities to the teachings of the great classical masters..."

...."I was impressed by the common sense interpretation and way of dealing with the horse, without the use of either force or any kind of threat, but simply positive reinforcement...."

October 2003

Pony's horse Copy (Patchy's Hot Copy) graciously stepped into the beautiful pasture for blind horses at Mill Creek Farm in Alachua, Florida. These folks are incredible, and have been providing a place where abused, abandoned or retired horses can live out their lives in security, love and comfort. A place they never leave, even in death, since they are laid to rest in the "Field of Dreams" when they die. The land there can never be developed. The oaks will stand, the grass won't be paved, the creek won't be diverted and the wildlife will not be driven out of a natural safe haven.

Copy has unique history; for those of you who own a copy of The Encyclopedia of the Horse, you can see Copy in all his glory in the Appaloosa chapter, his rider and he are dressed in Native regalia. He spent many years as a teacher at The Kentucky Horse Park, and came to be with Pony while he was at Equitana in Louisville, KY. He has been in the ribbons until earlier this year, as his sight is now gone, except for a few shadows.....

Pony's daughter Riana and Copy were dear friends, and she will miss him terribly. Please visit their website and say hello, they are terrific folks and Pony would appreciate you stopping by their website to say hello, as well as any support you can give for the care of an elderly horse!
