Cash did really well with his touch targeting today and only tried to kick me/the wheel barrow once so I am going to call today a huge win π₯°β€οΈ

In case anyone is wondering why I love willow so much I present to you.... Exhibit A π€£β€οΈ
It is a darn good thing she has an owner because had I adopted this horse to gentle/rehome she would probably never have left π€£β€οΈ

Day 71 On The Farm
Sweet boy Chevy did amazing once again today letting me pick his feet out and treat his wound, even letting me pick up his non injured leg so I could better spray the wound π I am so thankful for how far he has come since getting here because the horse that got here kicked me straight in the thigh just for trying to pick his back feet up, what we have been doing these last several days just wouldn't have been remotely possible. SO SO PROUD of this sweet little baked bean π₯°π΅βπ«

Day 35 On The Farm π
Not going to lie trailer practice with Lil tonight was a bit of a let down (not at all her fault) π I spent over an hour outside with a feed bucket at liberty and only managed to get her on the trailer this once and after trying for a while longer she was telling me she was too stressed so I stopped. We will continue to work at it though and I know she will be loading like the others before long π We did however get a full brush down done tonight, all 4 feet picked out with minimal struggle, and I was able to touch her udders without her offering to kick at all for the first time so that was great! π€π
