Nothing like a good rinse and fresh drink of water after a couple hot rides
Yahtzee LOVED the water and all the splashing. At one point I think he stuck his whole nose under
Yahtzee- he’s like a little mountain goat on these rocky hills
Sporty little dude . He’s pushing a shoulder out towards his buddies at times but corrects well. Work work work out
He stands for mounting / dismounting better than a lot of big horses
Yahtzee - just working on that steering
Her attention span was gone by this point but Yahtzee was still trying . 🤷🏽♀️ kids do weird stuff and these ponies have to learn to tolerate stuff
I admit. It’s been hard to keep up.
Aria wanted to try competition dance this year … Jacob started a new job and is on nights.. I’m working on multiple big horses and wedding planning on top of my regular work.. all the excuses.
We finally got Yahtzee out to work on some steering today . Thank goodness for the barn to be able to avoid the mud .
He has taken way more time than id planned but it’s all our fault for being busy, not his ( clearly ) .
He responded quite well to her today and I think the extra time did some great things for his mind.
Our majesty girl that transitioned us from me working horses for people to this whole mother daughter pony training thing. ❤️
Installing a little steering
Working on making a soft pony
Yahtzee- First time getting on without my close holding. Learning the etiquette.
We’re excited to jump into the weekend! Scout is going camping so if any of you down in southern ILLINOIS want to 👀 him he will be on the trails in Shawnee / at Michael P Allender’s place
Scout- standing and tolerating bareback monkey mounting
