Kirstin,
thanks for the suggestion on picking up rear hooves. I had kinda tried doing that with Apache, but because of weather always got interrupted.....I'll be doing that method again today, I've got him to where he gives me front feet with no problem, just have a few days left to get those back ones! Keep on practicing......
Kathy..it's okay not to ride, if that's where you are....we will be so PROUD of you for what you have accomplished with Reno! you have nothing to feel bad about! We will be there to cheer you on!
Christina...I sure hope you get the opportunity to hop on Nine real soon! Remember, don't feel rushed, just stay steady and to the course and you'll be amazed how things fall into place for you! All of the trainers that have blogged seem to be a unique group of people with an amazing love for the mustangs......keep up the GREAT work, all of you!
