Is your horse trying to tell you something? Simple tracking tip inside
Document, Track, Protect - Your weekly horse care guide
Hello Equestrian Enthusiasts,
This is Martin from Equus Note journaling app & Equilingo translation app.
Every Thursday, I send 3 short journaling tips for horse owners who want to document their equestrian journey.
Let's dive in? 🐴
Creating a Training Journal
You can keep scribbling random notes about your rides. That is totally fine and enhances your creativity.
But you can create something meaningful that shows your progress. It is easy as 1,2,3:
Write down your goals for each session
Note what worked (and what didn't)
Track your horse's responses and mood
Add small victories and breakthroughs
It's not rocket science.
But it makes a difference.
Mood-Tracking with Horses
Your horse's mood affects everything. Their performance, their learning, their connection with you.
Want to become a better partner?
Start tracking those moods.
Create a simple 1-5 scale for:
The energy level
The responsiveness
The overall attitude
Do this for a month.
You'll spot patterns you never noticed before.
Horse Info That Matters
Your horse's information should be visible and clear. Not just in your head or buried in a file somewhere.
Essential details every stall card needs:
Horse's name and any barn nicknames
Age, breed, and distinguishing marks
Key medical info (allergies, conditions)
Emergency contacts and vet info
Why it matters:
Quick access in emergencies
Clear communication between caretakers
No confusion about special needs or routines
Make it visible.
Keep it updated.
It could make all the difference one day.
That's it!
Thank you for reading my newsletter.
I hope it inspires you to document your equestrian journey next week.
