I've been learning how to saddle up Miss. Flicka... I've never saddled a horse before last Sunday. I need more lessons, I forget easy and it takes me a few tries before it clicks.
I bring her out, brush her, pick her hooves...
Let her sniff her blanket and rub it on her to get her use to it...
Tell her shes a good girl...
Go get her saddle...
Let her sniff it...
Put it on her back...
Tell her shes a good girl...
Then try to remember how to strap it all on her...
While shes thinkin... Come On Lady!
I did pretty good tonight...
But I knew I didnt tie the cinch strap right, so I watched a youtube video real fast and done it right.
I didnt ride her cause I still need to fit her bridle to her face, its too big...
My 10 year old niece had the camera taking these pictures
It'll get easier with practice! I love the pic where she's patiently looking back at you!
