Day 4

Repeating the same pattern as before. Still emphasizing on Friendly game. Continued to explore the playground and help the colt wherever it had difficulties. We tried all kinds of obstacles such as the pond. It's amazing how much they are offering us if we just give them a little bit of time. And when they offer it, we need to take it right away otherwise they loose interest in us. We turned our horses loose in the round pen with bareback pads on and my horse bucked a lot! Gave me lots to think about how I can better prepare her for the saddle. This is going to be my horse for the rest of the course so if I don't want to be bucked off I better find a way for her to solve that puzzle. As seen on the photo below this horse has got more than one card to play up her sleeve. ;)



The better you are at the finish the better you are at the start.
