Hi Brenda,
Fantasia is here! She made the trip with no problems at all. Mr.
Roberts said she ate and drank the whole way. She is so friendly!
Doesn't act stressed at all. Talked a little to my horses as she came
in the barn and then started eating her hay. Didn't shy of anything
yet……. Thanks again, I think she is really going to work out
great! I'll keep ya up dated on pictures later.
Thanks again,
Brenda & Charley
Hi Brenda,
Fantasia is still doing very well. She surprises me every time I go
over new things with her. Well, maybe they weren't as new to her as I
thought. ???
We finally got RFD TV on DirecTV now. I love it. Lots of new training
ideas. I really like Parelli's training methods. At least what I've
seen so far. I'd figure we'd just learn this method together. Well,
one evening I thought I'd try some of what they had went over on
Fantasia and see what she'd do. She really surprised me, it didn't take
her long and she was yo-yoing (coming & backing away), standing still,
going over boards I had laid down and also did very well with the
squeeze with barrels. At times she just acted like she has done this
all before. Has SHE???? We need to keep going over all these, but she
really surprised me how well she did! No older then she is.
What all has your trainer done with her? I may have asked all this
before, but I can't seem to remember. She is also doing very well with
grooming, standing tied, picking up her feet & bathing. I'm going to
try and see if she will go into the trailer again soon. Also start
doing some sacking and other objects next. So far she is a joy to work
with! I hope this all keeps up.
We even ponyed her today after we got back from a ride. She did very
well at that too…She is still growing! I'll have to get a picture off to you
one of
these days. Just thought I'd drop you a line and let you know how well she is
doing. A picture will follow soon.
Take care and happy trails!
Brenda & Charley
