Back to work

Well i decided it was time to put some serious work into the fat wee ornaments in the paddocks!

So first off it was Jocks turn, well what a performance from a 14.2 pony. You would think that there was a big scary monster behind him ready to munch his tail off. Talk about jig jog jig jog. Very nervous for some reason and ears laid back...not a happy chappy. So i just worked him slow and then there was the beginning of that dreaded rear. He didn't managed to do it but i could feel him getting ready. A few yells and growls at him made him change his mind, but it had certainly made my mind that he is not a good prospect for my daughter. Shame as he is a lovely looking chap and does have nice moves. But i will work him more and see if its the grass that's still making him go silly.

Then it was Harry's turn (Thats him in the photo here) What a lovely willing chap he is, always trying to please. I just lunged him today and spent some one on one with him.


Holden is still in the fatty paddock, much to his disgust. Cant work him yet but hopefully in a few weeks he will be better.
