Always trying to find ways to improve my balance! lol It's funny when you add an another element like two Donkeys or the Cat you suddenly find the thing that was initially hard becomes second nature and you adapt to quickly change your focus to the area it is needed....Never stop dreaming!

Connemara Ponies are Comet & Barney who are 7 & 6yrs old respectively.
The two Donkeys are called Walter and Willow, they are both from a rescue charity, they were wild, unhandled and in a horrible state when I got them 18months ago. They have been learning to drive, this was the first time I had tried roman riding with them upfront!
My cat is called Louis he is a 6yr old Siamese
Inca is my naughty (but perfect) Dachshund!

The ponies are on their holiday's, what better way to enjoy summer than with a spot of Glamping!
Watch out they don't end up at a campsite near you...or if they are do watch their CPR video!

Albert and Ernie are both shetland ponies, they are 8 & 7yrs old respectivly.

My deep passion is for working with horses, it has been since I left school but over the last year or two I have been giving myself the opportunity to play around with my other animals. It is fascinating trying to work at liberty with any animal, but I’ve been learning so much from taking my mixed species of furry friends out and about. It has really improved my horsemanship as your focus is on being the right kind of human for each of the animals and of course they all have very different requirements for being happy and confident. This was the first time any of them had been up on the moor so again something very new to us all. The feeling of confidence in my relationship with my horses makes it possible to be able to try this. The smiles are very much heart felt when you see Louis the cat having a blast or just so simply riding with all the wild ponies reinless without even thinking about it. We met many lovely people up on the moor, it was pretty cool to give everyone something additional to smile at as Lily the lamb trots over to say hi! I hope you enjoy the video. Emx

For a little adventure I take my two little ponies Albert & Ernie out skateboarding along the Granite Way on Dartmoor. The ponies ran alongside me completely free....we all enjoy the exercise!
Albert is an 8yr old Standard size Shetland Pony
Ernie is a miniature shetland pony he is 7yrs old now.

Finding the right horses and locations to have adventures isn't a 5 minute job. Enjoy a closer look at our first trip to Iceland, it's April so it was Freeeeeezing cold but such an Epic location...To be Continued!

Giving the ponies a happy life is so important to me, for all they give, if I can do something that makes their life a little more interesting and fun on a day to day basis then that’s only going to help our relationship. Each year I try and add a new feature to their summer playground, 2 years ago we added giant stones which they love to scratch and hoon around, last year we added a natural wooded wicker shelter, and today I just got them a tree!....I’m not going to lie this one is a little fun for me to as of course it has to be jumped! 😀 many thanks to Sørwest for finding this HUGE oak tree!

Walter and Willow were rescued from a charity, they were both wild and had terrible feet when they arrived. I have been slowly training them and this is Walters third time pulling the little cart. They are really attached to each other so Willow came along as well to keep him company. Thanks to Cavallo hoof boots who have helped massively to get them able to walk about comfortably. We covered about 10 miles in total....with a few tea breaks!

This a real time (unedited) clip of me playing about on the beach with 4 of my Connemara Liberty team ponies on Omey Strand in Connemara National Park (Ireland) . Sooooooo much fun, so much space and freedom. Love every second I get to spend with them xx

The Connemara's are..
Nahla - 7yr old
Barney -6 Yr old
Echo - 6yr old
Comet - 6-yr old

This summer I am heading off on a unique adventure crossing Europe with my two miniatures in tow...Literally! I have designed and had made a purpose build trike to carry the two horses, my little dog and myself oh and a tent! Our adventure has one simple mission to make people smile! My horses make me smile every single day, it's going to be fun to share our adventure across social media and my website www.emmamassingale.com for more information do check it out! Emx

Snow much with Walter and Willow!
Walter and Willow are two donkeys that I rescued 8 months ago, they originally came from Ireland, they were totally un-handled aka WILD ASSES! I was so proud of how they were able to have fun and hoon around in the snow with me on the Unicorn! I am going to train them to pull a cart in the future as I think its something they will enjoy.
