tuesday and thursday ... an improving week

tuesday out with companion for hack , was fine save for the flies

lesson tonight, and we worked on two things.... techniques to get the boy moving, and talking therapy for me (since it's been in my head, as we all know).

hopefully it'll work in the long run

ended up actually out on a hack which makes sense and RI dropped back farther than i realised, so couldn't then say i'll go through the ford, at that point i realised she wasnt' there and of course he stopped again!  hey ho, but i kept on with teh stuff she's been suggesting and got him fruther towards the ford that he'd stopped at.... and she walked downa and we went another way... i was a bit anoyed as he has been through the ford with me on him on my own before, but hey..... so roudn the 20 acre instead

at the end of that you go up a steep hill, so i trotted it, carried on trotting at the top, and one minute i'm trotting along and the next he's spooking at who knows what and i'm up his neck on an angle? bizarre, but i stayed on....

  1. Well, that was semi-exciting and not exciting all at the same time. Stopping at the ford was a non-exciting standstill. But I feel you frustration. The trotting up with hill with a spook...that was exciting, not in a good way. Glad you stayed on. Better luck next time with the ford. Maybe he just didn't want to get his feet wet this time. *sigh*
