Oops


Day 14
Today marks two weeks with the queen!

In those fourteen days we have accomplished:
-Touching
-Grooming
-Leading
-Handling of Feet
-Basic round pen skills

It is so exciting to go through this with such a cool little horse. Big plans are brewing for our training path, and though I can't quite reveal them yet, we will be working overtime this summer to accomplish some big goals 💪🏻


Anywho- today was pretty great, until the weather decided to go zero to one hundred real quick. I ended up having to hustle from the round pen to the paddock  because of the sudden lightening storm that just so happened to roll by while I was handling feet. I think Arya was just fine with the idea of extra hay in her run in and practically a day off, but I continue to be bummed by the slippery footing. It had just begun to dry up today, which make it feel even more like a stab in the back. Meh. 

Hopefully we will start soon with some scary objects from the arena so we can do some sessions in the ring. It'd feel really great and get her out exploring. I would also like to braid her mane. That'd be pretty awesome, seeing training goes on hold so often with the weather being as crazy as it is.


More later!
