The Warhorse Journal WARHORSE Endurance

YOU WERE MADE TO RISE- with Amberley Snyder Champion Barrel Racer, Motivational Speaker, author and co producer of the inspirational movie, WALK. RIDE. RODEO.

Today on The Warhorse Journal Podcast we are chatting with lifelong horse gal, turned barn owner and riding coach, Judy Coldren.   Judy shares her journey into the horse world with us taking us back to a time when barns were filled with horse crazy kids willing to work just to be in the presence of horses.  We cover some ground in this episode from how to get into horses if you haven’t already,  how horsemanship is often a missing component in today and also how a part of horse ownership that often leads us broken hearted.

 Today on The Warhorse Journal I have the pleasure to talk with the author of over 20 books, and my all time favorite authentic equestrian,  America’s most trusted horseman, Mr. John Lyons. I first saw John teach and train at the Midwest Horse Fair I Madison, WI. 
If you would like to read along with the current John Lyons book that I am reading, "Lyons on Horses" - here is a link to purchase it on Amazon  https://amzn.to/3ZsNpbQ
My admiration for John extends beyond the remarkable relationship that John had built with his appaloosa stallion, Bright Zip, it extend above and beyond that to seeing another relationship that John carries in his heart as  part of him, and that is his relationship with God and how faith is woven into everything that John does.   
 
I invite you to listen in today as John shares the ways that we see God reflected back to us through the eyes of our horses.  I hope you enjoy today’s episode, I know I did!  Welcome to the podcast, Mr. John Lyons. 
 
 

Today on The Warhorse Journal we talk with Julie Copper of Copper Horse Crusade in Ohio.   Julie has worked tirelessly to create a method of saving slaughter bound horses.   I know this is a difficult topic, though also know that as champions of the horse, we often see the pleas to rescue horses come galloping across our social media newsfeeds.  Today Julie and I will discuss the type of horses that find their way waiting to get on a truck to the slaughter houses and what we can do to help save one more in a responsible way.    When you know better, you do better.   Together lets do better and save one more.   This one is dedicated to hip #809
