So I have forgotten to update the blog, sorry! I've had two other rides besides today that have been pretty great! I haven't had to use the hackamore on G in the those last few rides. She hardly pulls at the bit anymore. Yay!
I haven't even worked her very long the last few rides because she has done just awesome. She puts up her tantrums at first but then focuses really well on work. I am SO proud of her! Today she picked up her trot to canter transition SO much better than the last few rides. She's still a dipper/sharp turner so we'll work on that eventually, but my biggest thing with her is getting her to yield to the left. She does great to the right but over-bends her neck and I have to really use a lot of leg to push her HQs over. Gettin' there, though!
Haha, I even raised my stirrups up a hole. It seemed to make a huge difference for me and I feel like I rode her a lot better today doing that. She was just fabulous, such a good girl today we only rode for about 20-30 min then walked around the property to cool down.
It's been nasty windy so I'm not riding as much. She does just fine in the wind, I just hate getting crap in my eyes, lol. Even with sunglasses on, it doesn't do a whole lot.
Hopefully it's not too bad tomorrow or Sunday. I'd like to ride one of the two days, so we'll see. I wish I lived closer sometimes.
These aren't from today, but from a few days ago.. Enjoy
