Training is coming along good, Jihad is lounging in both directions, I can
drive him anywhere with no more spooking with and without the surcingle,
even with the lines dangling around his hocks level, he takes a surcingle
and saddle good, next is lounging him with the saddle. We'll see how that
goes. He is pretty spooky about stuff at first but settles right down
rather quickly. I think its because he and I have established a level of
trust. Arabians are amazingly smart to me. This is my first one and he
constantly amazes me with how fast he picks things up but he also lets me
know when to slow down:}
Hope to see all you ridecamp buddies at the aerc convention in Reno in Feb!
