AUGUST 7, 2008
Jere played with both horses on the playground and worked on transitions and draw.
Jere still plays catching move with them. Penny still is not tied on as well, but now she will walk up very cautiously and let herself be caught. We are going to start letting her walk up to us and rubbing her and playing with her face in her “sweet spots” and then walking away from her. We will see if this gets her to be more trusting of us.
We are also starting with the trailer loading, by driving them in. We have a 4-horse cattle trailer and most horses will get right into it. We will see about the Mustangs loading by the halter, instead of loose.
