She is doing fine in straight lines, so I'll continue to work on straight line work: frequent speed transitions, flexing at the poll, stops and backing up, going up and down hills. I'll leave the circle work until she is better conditioned.<br /><br />But I think this is going to be an issue for her unless she is ridden regularly. It's pretty hard for me to keep my 3 horses ridden. Breathe, when are you coming over to ride one of my horses?Trailriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16097842353439742750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390416239155466954.post-6424600015754625582010-07-20T04:43:41.066-07:002010-07-20T04:43:41.066-07:00She sounds pretty happy with what you're doing...She sounds pretty happy with what you're doing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390416239155466954.post-67118171414627231742010-07-19T22:43:03.483-07:002010-07-19T22:43:03.483-07:00Woo hoo!

I have a feeling she'll be much more of a willing partner...<br /><br />I'm also glad to hear that the conditioning is working and that you're taking time with it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13104422629934443842noreply@blogger.com
