Fiona and a Saddle Pad

It was around 60 today here in Kentucky, that is crazy for January. After work I enjoyed it by playing in the yard, I went to get Clue out but she was being a snot and followed Flickas lead so I just got Fiona out... I tied Fiona to the hitching post (I didnt leave her, she doesnt know how to be tied yet) while I groomed her and picked up her feet, she did pretty good. Then I got Flickas saddle pad, put it on the ground and let Fiona walk up to it and take a sniff... I held it and let her sniff, I rubbed it down her neck... she didnt care so I put it on her back... no big deal. Then I walked her around the main yard with it on... she didnt care.  But she did care that she was away from Flicka and Clue... I had to get after a few times.  I let her munch in the yard then we took a walk down the road.  I think I spent about 45 minutes with her.  Shes growing so fast. She 9 months old now.

Fiona: Bath and Loading/Unloading

 Fiona learned a lot yesterday and so did I... she got her first bath, seen her mom (Pretty, Pretty Princess), met another Filly, took them for a walk, she learned how to load herself and unload. She also got dewormed and I will be starting her on alittle grain.  Gonna work on backing her up from the ground.

Lunging Pepper

Sweet, Sweet Pepper is my Appaloosa gelding who is proud cut and stubborn and then super sweet.  Today I told myself I was gonna lunge him... the first round was ok but he kinda won, so I tied him to the hitching post for 30ish minutes then went back out with my lunge whip for round 2 and it went great, I won and had Mr. Pepper moving his feet, he lunged really great, he have me the best workout I've had in awhile, thought my arms were gonna fall off, I loved it and I loved that I was the leader. 

Hes so beautiful!
