Time to relax
Today was a short session. I'm pretty beat. It's been a long week so I decided to give P and I both a break. We only did about 20 minutes in the round pen, went for a short walk, worked on leading, walk and whoa commands, going up and down a small concrete step, introduced him the the water bottle, worked on grooming and getting him to let me pick up his feet for longer periods, had a nice session where he just got to chill out and graze on the lead, and then called it a day.
MMMmmm. Tasty, tasty sticks!
He's balking at the round pen and also balking at leading if it's not
where HE wants to go so I'm going to have to figure out how to fix that.
It's really not his problem; it's my problem. He's still questioning
whether or not I'm the boss. Also, took a couple photos but forgot to
get good ones of his hooves but here's what I did get...
Those are his front feet and then his right front. Recall, he hasn't seen a farrier in at least a year but probably closer to 2 years.
