Transitioning a Growing Horse to Work

Dr. Nicole Rambo and Heather share an update on Chicago, Heather’s Quarter Horse–Brabant cross, as he begins light training at two. Bred for a future mounted patrol role, Chicago is growing quickly but remains an easy keeper, so the priority is supporting development without excess calories. Heather explains his current plan: Essential K ration balancer, careful pasture management, and Constant Comfort before hauling. They also discuss growth spurts, early training, and the value of adjusting nutrition to the individual young horse.
