A rescue Palomino named Santiago helps a rider rebuild trust after a traumatic fall while Gabriella Madeiros shares how to run a lesson program that protects school horses first. We dig into nutrition, workload caps, heat strategies, farrier pivots, and frugal supplements that work.
• Santiago’s temperament turning fear into confidence
• Rescue to reliable lesson horse care path
• Firing a farrier and shoeing thin soles with pads
• Workload limits and two consecutive rest days
• Heat and humidity scheduling, hosing, and fans
• Forage-first feeding with quality hay and wet feeds
• Electrolytes and salt year-round for hydration
• Saddle fit, dentals, fascia massage, and bodywork
• Cost-effective HA, beta-glucan, aloe, and herbs
• Ulcer and respiratory protocols without rebound
• Adapting programs during washouts and slow seasons
