So today I did some ground work with Rose, the 2yr old mare, and Shea, the 4yr old gelding. Sam was injured so I was taking over for the day. There were a lot of things about turning out, lunging, and ground work that I didn't know, that I now am still learning. How to hold the whip for different cues, where to stand to stop, slow down, or speed up the horse. For the most part I screwed up everything! Haha! Shea wanted to do everything to please me but neither of us could get it right!! Rose on the other hand is way more forward and did a lot better with me, I think. But after it all we did some tricks with Shea and called it a day.
