Mojo being saddle – he was very good, a bit fidgety due to the noisy tractor coming round the corner and collecting hay from the barn. I didn’t get it done up as the girth seems too small and I didn’t want to try too hard to get it fastened. It did go up last time but I need another person to gently hold the saddle in place. At no tme during this was he restrained and he was free to leave at any time.
Mojo bending to touch a target, I am trying to get duration and he seems to understand the counting. We have got up to 4 as we did with the barrel last time.
Tried it with the feet too and managed 3 before I felt him want to put it down. I clicked before he felt like he was going to snatch them back. Missed that off the video as my camera switched itself off.
Hopefully he can be ridden soon and stay calm and relaxed about it. Love this little horse – he has such an expressive character.
Positive Horsemanship.
