Update from this past weekend
Folly and I had an exciting weekend at Fish Tail Bar G, LLC. She learned that himalayan salt licks are delicious, is now tying well and wearing a saddle without issue, conquered obstacles such as the tiered ‘wedding cake’, walking over a tarp, a wooden bridge, the “teeter-totter”, and poles and under tarps and dangling hoses. We’ve also started jumping up next to the saddle and putting some weight in the stirrups. We finished up the weekend by teaching her how to load and unload calmly from the trailer, a skill she mastered in about 5 minutes!
Stay tuned for more photo and video evidence!
