What's lurking Here at Considering Animals

Saddle Under The Stars

Saddle under the stars is my blog about life on our farm with our animals and about traveling with Bernie and our equines. Plus my work with the Two Step Technique a way of being with and seeing animals.

Monday's Beast

Monday's Beast was my art blog. It's where I posted essays and paintings about animals. Please feel free to still browse it. There have not been any new posts in quite a few years but the old ones are fun to read through.

Two Step Technique

The Two Step Technique is where I explain about my practice working with equines and the services I provide doing that work.

Old Dog Diaries

This was a blog about an old dog, a man wondering across America on mules and the woman who loves them both. Snookie, the dog in this blog, died in August of 2021. He will be forever missed. Here is a link to his obituary on this site. www.consideringanimals.com/saddle-under-the-stars/archives/08-2021

The Trust Technique

I was the first certified and qualified Large Animal Practitioner of the Trust Technique on the East Coast of the United States. I am no longer practicing the Trust Technique as of October 2024. I have branched out on my own, but on this page you will find some great articles to read on the technique. My teaching are still very much in the vain of this work.
