Our horse philosophy

My relationship with horses has taken many turns. Read more about this in the About me section. While I am still learning and always will be, the main lesson I’ve learned is to be authentic around horses. I don’t try to be something that I’m not when I’m with them, I try to show up as I am. Because that is what they do.

Presence, authenticity and a sense of humour are what guide me in my horse relationships.

El Niño

Breed: Pura Raza Española / Swedish Warm-blooded Trotter
Born: 2015

Niño was the first horse member of the family and has been with me the longest. He has developed a lot through the years and has now found his place as the head of the horse herd, keeping watch and taking care of the herd.

Together with humans he is trusting, gentle and unafraid to let us know when something is bothering him or if he has his own idea about what we should get up to.

Celoso S

Breed: Pura Raza Española
Born: 2018

Celoso came to us when we moved up to Lillhärdal in 2023. Finally the dream of having horses at home came true but for that we needed to expand our flock and Celoso became the second member.

Celoso is an expressive PRE with a kind heart. He doesn’t do half measures, he expresses what he feels fully and is always curious about life and what can be experienced.

Miss Red

Breed: Irish sport horse
Born: 2011

Miss Red is a caring mare with a fire inside. She will not compromise herself and will protect those the cares for with her life. When you meet her on her terms she has a lot to give. Coming from a largely unknown past, she carries some trauma in her body that we are still working through.

Beautyson

Breed: Swedish Warm-blooded Trotter
Born: 2010

Tyson, as we call him, is a gentle giant. He is a very sweet horse with a soft demeanor. He spent the first 12 years of his life in the Swedish trotter racing scene. At 12 years of age he retired himself from that scene by lying down during training, sulky and all.

Tyson has been with us since the summer of 2024 and has spent his first year with some ups and downs as we learn what makes his body and mind feel better.
