A Dog Named Saturday
Coffee Clutch got its name from the blog posts I wrote for years from the barn sitting enjoying my morning coffee with my mare, dogs, kitties and chickens. Folks really enjoyed them. Coffee Clutch is more than a newsletter. It’s a visit, it’s information, it’s fun, it’s musings, barn talk, writing talk, bird talk, horse talk and faith thoughts. And of course, it’s all the news about A DOG NAMED SATURDAY, old new and coming soon.
I’ll share some of my works in progress, upcoming publications, and more. Folks enjoy “The Old Man on the Porch, and Grandpop too, so they’ll be dropping in.
Sign up to join the ride! ~ Gitty up, Dutch.
THERE’S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GETTIN’ AND EARNIN’
Howdy Friends! His friendly smiles always took charge of the moment, times and situations I knew I’d handle differently, most certainly with less effect and understanding. Grandpop always knew how to make things understandable, on a higher level. Sometimes with just...
ROSIE DSLD UPDATE: AND IT’S GOOD NEWS!
Howdy Friends! Rosie Update: By Golly have a look at this 10 second video from yesterday’s ride. This is a horse who a little better than a year ago my vet said she’ll never carry the weight of a rider. Because she supposedly has DSLD. We’d already been rehabbing...
Consistency Builds Confidence
Howdy Friends! “Consistency Builds Confidence” Horses build confidence by getting it right, not by being corrected. My mentor, Diane Sept, teaches we should, "Conduct ourselves in a manner that commands respect." That of course does not suggest you "boss" your horse...
EXPECTATIONS! – “It’s For The Horses.”
Howdy Friends,"Expectations"- Do you approach your horse wearing your expectations on your sleeve? Sometimes it’s hard not to, and in fact, sometimes it’s the right thing to do. For without expectations there can be no results, right? What if we think about our...
“My Horse Drags ME!” – This Does Not Need To Be.
Howdy Friends! We've all seen horses crowd, or drag, or push their person when being led. I chuckle sometimes when I see folks follow the pace set by their horse as they are dragged along. I frown when I see them yank on the lead and yell at their horse. I feel sorry...
GrandPop, Lisa and Fall Colors
Howdy Friends, We had drifted to the back yard, Grandpop, Lisa and me. Grandpop wasn't up to riding, or walking very far, so the chairs just off the porch seemed a good place to rest. The view of the mountains, not so far away, but far enough to paint a glorious scene...
CHILDREN’S BOOKS THE WAY THEY USED TO BE
Howdy Friends! . . . Saturday and Fluffernutter stopped in a most perfect sun spot to plan their search to discover what kind of morning today would be. “Some mornings are very early, but sometimes the morning is only as early as it wants to be,” Saturday told...
Clearing the Mist of Roman’s 13.
Howdy Friends! Tyrants love the misinterpretation of Roman's 13. “We are to obey the civil government.” Tyrants love that it aids them in their tyranny. It is an invention of the evil ones. Actually Roman’s 13:1 Clearly states the opposite: “Let every soul be subject...

A Horse That Is Sound Only In Shoes – Is Not Sound.
Howdy Friends! I saw something that compelled me to put up this picture. Just a reminder. "A horse that is sound only in shoes - Is not sound." We must dig deeper my friends. There is always a healthy solution. Did you know I was counseled to put shoes on Miss Rosie?...
