Natural Horsemanship
A lifetime of kind horsemanship, I think we were doing natural horsemanship before it was ''invented''
I have completed Level One with Quantum Savvy Natural Horsemanship.
I am sad I can no longer access the Parelli learning platform, its just too expensive with too many changes.
I've tried some clicker training with good results , but haven't found any one person to wholly agree with. I guess I'll just need to keep trying to see what works

Okay Claire I have a question for you and UKBob. When I moved into this house the yard had several lilac bushes that had been let go and never pruned. I took the saw and cut them all about shoulder hieght. Have I messed up? Will they grow back and have leaves let alone flowers? My wife thinks I have destroyed them.
Ramblin, I have a lilac that came from an offshoot of my mothers tree, hers was a well established plant( translate as 'monster'!) that we used to cut virtually to the ground every couple of years. usually books suggest you cut something back by a third per year, leaving some to grow on. in my experiance the lilacs will always grow back.
beautiful iris - my favorites. . .
Gorgeous pictures. I love the colors of these flowers, and have always really liked iris flowers. While I am in a Winter Wonderland it is great to see such a beautiful bit of spring.
Thanks for the info on lilac bushes. I must admit that I have not kept mine pruned so this info is something I can use. Once the weather warms up I hope to get out there and start cutting them back.
Derrick, I'm looking forward to more in the spring, i'm sure i have about four different named ones and a few more that arent.
Alice, I love the colours and the contrasts on the petals, I think the lilacs are best cut back at the end of the growing season, and then they send up new growth in the spring.
CLAIRE!
I Found you again! LOL
I had lost your blog for some reason. I have months to catch up on, now. Have to go get a snack first though:)
