Saddling was uneventful and we were chatting during the process. She stood relatively still, Steven mounted and she was ready to get to work. This was her fourth ride.
We had discussed what we were going to do with Sage for today....We decided to use the barrels in the practice area to work on neck reining that we had left set up from the day before, would be a good exercise to practice weaving and turning.... She started off a bit hesitant, stopping frequently, and I just couldn't stand to see them have all the fun....so I did like any good stump~sittin~horse~trainer~wanna~be woulda done....I grabbed my beer and joined right in.....I think Sage really enjoyed the company....
Follow the leader.......................
I did offer her a sip, but she's too young....will have to wait a bit.
In all, Sage did a great job. Not only did she learn to weave the barrels, at a snails pace, but it's still a real weave ( with and without her 'escort' ), and to make turns around them. Look out NBHA, Sage Brush Lily will be burning 3 real soon!
Finished off the day dragging the ring with Favorite Son's 4 Wheeler. Man, that was FUN!
hey! At least I didn't crash.....like last time.
