18th September, 2010 Bluebell Would






Bluebell is a very confident pony now and stands solidly next to whoever is working with her. Yesterday we started to work on handling her legs using the feather duster to establish touch before offering her a set signal to ask her to pick her feet up. She was also led outside for the first time using just a scarf as a lead rein. In the field, where she was loose, she chose to stay with me and allowed me to "catch" her with the scarf.
