So today I rode Elvis again, my gorgeous boy ;) He was super great once again, and I think he is really starting to trust me! When we dropped him off in his paddock he almost completely refused to leave the gate. He has this strange attachment to me, and I have no problem with that :)
Today we:
- Warm up at walk
- Flexing
- Square turns
- Flexing at trot
- Square turns at trot
- Straightness
- Trot across the diagonal over verticals (F to H, M to K)
- Cool down
I was so super proud of Elvis this week, because he didn't refuse a single jump. That was great for him! He did trip over this one jump though, but that was entirely my fault! On the last jump, he actually jumped it and landed on the correct lead and everything. He is such a good boy.
Its funny because Elvis and Bliss have this thing against each other. Actually I think its just Elvis and his big ego, but whenever Bliss comes anywhere near him, Elvis pins his ears and tries to kick. If I tap him with my crop or give him a kick he gets over it pretty quick.
I love you Elvis!!! Thanks for reading. Please comment or follow this blog! Help me reach 2000 views
