Mustang Mother's Day

I did just what I wanted to do yesterday and that was play with my horses. I am encouraged with Fancy. Reducing the size of her pen has helped. Jim was even able to stand within just a few feet of her with her actually in a relaxed state. It has helped that she's not able to run to far from us. I put a bareback pad on Maverick yesterday and you would have thought he had worn one all his life. I cinched him up pretty snug and he didn't even flinch. Taylor spent quite a bit of time riding Shawnee. She's doing quite well. She's becoming more responsive to us all the time. The only thing that bothers Taylor is Shawnee's loud whinee. Shawnee is a very talkative little horse...and for such a small horse she has a HUGE voice. Her whole body shakes when she whinees at the other horses. Taylor is finally getting used to the sensation and doesn't want to bail off every time Shawnee has a conversation. I can see that they are going to be a great team.
