Our 100 day challenge came to an end today!! Boris was definitely a donkey this weekend but at the end of the day I have so many more opportunities to showcase him and his skills since he is coming home with me!! I had such a great time this weekend and am so thankful that I had a chance to participate in this amazing program. Thank you to everyone for all the support and I hope you all continue to tune into our page for more updates!!

Boris definitely does not enjoy getting baths but he is such a champ about it. He stands there like such a good boy and even lets me wash his face. We are getting ready to leave for the teens and oregon mustang challenge.

We leave for our competition tomorrow. I have decided to keep Boris!! I am super excited for our competition and all the fun things we can accomplish after our competition. I would love to teach Boris how to drive and do mountain trail with him.

Boris went to McIver park and he was amazing! He did everything I asked including the suspension bridge and most of the teeter totter! The scariest thing he saw was his shadow🤣🤣 I am super happy with him

Boris made some new horse and human friends while camping this weekend at Willamette Mission State park. He took long walks around the park and even learned to load in a trailer with a ramp. He stood tied and was very friendly with lots of fellow campers who loved feeding him all kinds of treats. Who knew that Boris loves cucumbers!

Boris went on his first adventure a couple days ago. Thank you so much to Linda Wagner for having us at your awesome trail course and helping us too! Boris was amazing he was super calm and willing to try for me, I am so beyond impressed with him!

Boris was amazing tonight! He was unbothered by the bit, blinders and surcingle. I ground drove him today and worked on getting him to respond to the bit and bend. We are on day 39 (I think) and I am super hopeful that we can hook up the cart soon!

The last couple of days I have been working with Boris in the round pen, in the arena and outside too. His personality is really starting to show and he is starting to love grain. We have been working with obstacles and doing some desensitization too. Enjoy this adorable photo of when he let me pet him while taking a nap in the arena!!
