Happy Birthday, Phoenix

0531_01

Clinton’s miniature horse, Phoenix, celebrates his fifteenth birthday on June 2nd. The sorrel gelding arrived at the ranch in 2009 as a 2-year-old colt and over the years has amassed a tremendous fan base of his own. He’s starred in a two-part series about using the Method to train miniature horses (watch the series by logging in to the No Worries Club or the Downunder Horsemanship app), but is best known for greeting Walkabout Tour crowds and packing around programs at the events.

Learn how the plucky mini joined the Downunder Horsemanship team in a three-part series of articles in the No Worries Journal. The series begins with the article, “A Surprise Birth,” in the summer 2015 edition of the No Worries Journal (starting on page 54). Read the article now on the No Worries Club website or by logging on to the Downunder Horsemanship app.
