Hottie day 13 Things went a bit sideways today!







The one good thing we learned today was to back! Woo hoo the back is down pat. Dragging ropes off the saddle in a larger area NOT SO MUCH! I decided she needed to drag ropes in the big arena and she used the whole thing to bronc, kick, spin, whirl, twirl and run like hell that was only one rope tied on to the horn! The great thing is she is very level headed about the whole thing in a scared kinda way! This is the first time we have done something that she didn't like so much that she broke into a sweat. So she got her first bath. She was fine with the body although she did move around a bit, loved drinking out of the hose but HATED THE WATER ON HER LEGS! So something to work on tomorrow along with more ropes. Today was a 3 session day. I went in the morning and worked on the ropes, then went back around noon and just hung out with her so she didnt hold a grudge! Then I went back around 3:00 to do some groundwork. Hence the backing!!!!! I could work with her all day she is so willing to learn new things and always seems like she is fresh minded to move on to the next task. She is shedding out and wow is she beautiful. You get past the large head (as large as my torso) and she is just gorgeous!
