GOOD RIDES ONLY & DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES

Worked Karl on my day off today - a successful time for us.

The view into Karl’s stall from my bedroom window.

He was quite distracted, but still gave me his all. Our groundwork was very positive and we did walk/trot on a loose cavesson line. I was able to find movement of his shoulders around my body and communicate more clearly with my energy. He’s becoming very responsive and curious. I kind of lost him as we continued with riding - someone rode by with their horse, and horses were being turned in. Still, he gave me no stuck moments going into the trot and I was very aware and able to correct and move the shoulders around the circle. Found a good spot to end.
