Freestyle Patterns...

YAY!!!  I JUST finished ordering the freestyle patterns and I CAN NOT WAIT until they get here:)!  Well on with the horses~

Sonny and I have been doing hill therapy although I still ride:)!  The hill therapy is doing pretty well:)!  I have also been working on him moving going AWAY from the other horses and he was doing horribly but last night I got him LB again by doing a ton of close range circles with slack in the rope.  He did REALLY good:)!  I've also been working on our bridleless riding and I can now do about anything with him bridleless w/ carrot stick and savvy string of course:)!!!!!  I can get him to back up with me just wiggling my legs, Lateral Flexion with my carrot stick, jump him 18-24 inches high, and a start of a spin:)!  I am sooo excited!  I won't post a video of it yet because we are still pretty uncoordinated:)!

Red and I have been working on mounting and dismounting, the 7 games, and some jumping from the ground:)!  He is slowly but surely getting better about everything...  The dismounting can sometimes still warrant a nasty look but we have pretty much fixed that:)!  lol!  Well I've gtg eat lunch:)!  ttyl!

Update and Fun

Hi!  Sorry I haven't updated in like FOREVER!!!  Been really busy and I haven't been able to work with the horses that much because of the heat, humidity, and I have been having issues with my left shoulder and neck:(!!!  I woke up Sunday morning crying at 5:30am and couldn't move without SEVERE pain.  It took me 1 HOUR to get out of bed and get my parents *sigh*.  Now I also have a bad head cold!!!!  UGH! But Oh well...

Sonny and I have been fixing our yo-yo game cause I hadn't been doing it in a while because he physically couldn't back up because of his stifle.  So instead I did a lot of trotting in straight lines and things like that.  But last night I FIXED THE YO-YO GAME!!!  YAY!  We have also been doing some sideways game and fixing his dominance issues 'cause they have reared their ugly head again *sigh*...

Red and I have been working on confidence issues.  We have done a WHOLE LOT of the touch-it pattern and just for fun I have been dragging things behind him because I want to teach him how to pull things when he stops growing *smiles* 'cause that would be LOTS of fun:)!  hehe!  We have also been doing the principle games and the yo-yo game:)!

Arby and I have been sorting out who is the boss and "impulsion" issues.  She likes to take off, tends to jig in place, and throws little "hissy" fits when told she can't go be with her "friends":).  FUN!  We have been having a little success...

Rambo and I have been playing around with point to point to help with his impulsion:)!  Hailey has been working on the principle games with him and he is doing pretty good with them:)!

I'm making a movie of the camp and should have it up in 1-3 weeks;D!  Hope y'all will like it :)!

THE PATTERNS CAME IN!!! And a case of LBIness...

Hi!  Whats up?  I GOT MY ONLINE PATTERNS!!!! YAY!!!  I am SOOOO excited!  It was worth the 75.00$ I paid but NOT the 143.00$ they're charging when it is not on sale.  I did the figure 8 patterns with Sonny and we are already, after only 2 times of doing it, at level 2!!!  I am going to do my level 1/2 audition in a couple of weeks/months because I want to try to get 1++ or AT LEAST 1+'s.  And it is also EXPENSIVE!!!  I may do it after Christmas because I am already begging for the savvy club membership from my grandparents for Christmas:)! lol!  And I get 100$ from my other grandparents for Christmas so I'll use that money on the Audition(s):D.  Hehehe!  I'll post about the camp when I have time because it will take a LONG TIME to post about it all:)!  Well here are some updates~

~Sonny~

We have been working on his figure 8's and Stick-2-Me and now AT LIBERTY we can do a walk and trot!  YAY!  I am soooo excited!!!

~Red~

We have been playing the yo-yo game and working on lightness during the driving and porcupine games because right now he is VERY VERY non responsive *sighs* .  He has also turned COMPLETELY 100% LBI/RBI online when I play "tag" with him he is COMPLETELY LBE but the second a line gets snapped on him he turns LBI...  Hints anyone???

I GOT THE ON-LINE PARELLI PATTERNS!!!!

Hey!!!  Waz up?  I got the on-line parelli patterns!  YAY!  It should be here Tuesday or Wednesday!  I am soooo excited!  Oh yah, Sonny colicked not last night but the night before so I was up REALLY late.  UGH!  He's fine now but he gave me a scare. I almost called the vet which I don't usually do for colic because I have handled so many colicky horses it ain't even funny!  He was down and he all the sudden THREW his neck onto the ground and his eyes rolled back into his head so I got him up and gave him some banamine and was going to give him 30 minutes till I called the vet but he slowly got better so I made him a warm mash and that seemed to perk him up so in about an hour he was fine and dandy!  What do y'all think it could have been?  Oh and I just found the funniest movie online here it is~
