Our story, from unrideable and dangerous to a happy partnership. Monday, November 30, 2009. Recap of January -June 2009. Double Black Diamond Horse.

Our story, from unrideable and dangerous to a happy partnership. Sunday, February 21, 2010. This week Steve took Paloma out for a tour of the neighborhood. With help from her friends, she managed just fine. In fact, while her friend Pearl struggled with a muddy creek crossing, Paloma was kicking back and "having a cigarette.".

Paloma's Progress: Kona's Progress
http://palomasprogress.blogspot.com/2010/02/konas-progress.html
Our story, from unrideable and dangerous to a happy partnership. Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Kona got her flyng changes last night - I've been working with her for MONTHS, since our last lesson with Ellen back in May, and she finally got it! And we did it again tonight, with a bit of help from Susan on how to set her up and to use the whip to tap as I ask for the change. Kona tried to buck, which she can't do, fortunately! Piaffe and passage, here we come! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Paloma's Progress: Horse Soccer
http://palomasprogress.blogspot.com/2010/03/horse-soccer.html
Our story, from unrideable and dangerous to a happy partnership. Monday, March 1, 2010. The next day she was still nervous, but better, and survived the ambush by the pot belly pig without taking off for the next county. She's learning that those things just happen and she isn't going to die. At least, that's what I hope she's learning! The next few days they played horse soccer,. And Paloma's learned to ground tie!

Our story, from unrideable and dangerous to a happy partnership. Thursday, March 11, 2010. At the end of February, Steve brought Paloma up to Winters when Dave Hillman was at Somerset for a few days. Dave worked Steve and Paloma into some projects - working a colt in the round corral and working with Emily and Del to prepare for trail riding. Here are some photos from the project with Paloma and Del, to get the horses together before "hitting the trail" (which was an adventure down the driveway!
