I couldn't resist! From our first ride to showing at Worlds. I would of never guessed this is where we'd end up when I first picked her up ❤️
Gracie's full brother! He is available to the public ❤️

If I can remember to count our spins and not forget our pattern, this should be a fun show season 😂

Shes slightly interested 😂

There are two important things to consider when training a horse. #1 is to take things at the speed your horse is comfortable, and then build on it. And #2 is to stop while it's still fun for the horse so that they want to continue to push without breaking their confidence.
As Gracie spins you can see how low and relaxed her headset is at first Then as I ask for more speed she starts to feel less confident in her maneuver, and her head starts to rise and she starts to drop her shoulders.
Backing off slightly I was able to show her I acknowledged her confidence, backed down allowing her to relax again.
This will help her want to keep putting effort for me while we build up her speed and keeping her footsteps correct in the turnaround.
