Barrel Play Today!

Had just a short time to play today..... Lordy and I did a few things online and then went to liberty in Triple Play Farm arena..... He loves the new pedestal... (thanks Batchelor Family)

During our liberty session... once I could peel him away from the pedestal...... I ran and asked him lightly to jump a single cow flavored barrel on it's side.... he stayed straight and soared over it. Honestly and committed to the task! I was so proud of him. He so had a choice to jump or not to jump and he followed my polite ask!!! Our bond is growing between us and I could not be more excited... it is amazing what horses will "want" to do when they know you care and that you are fair and polite. It is all in the ask and mutual respect.

Keep it natural-
Dawn
