I got bored of playing in the ring, I wanted something differnt and My dad got home today so i decided I'd saddle bella up play with her a bit to warm up and walk her to my house! Our first obstacle was that the road wasnts a black hole that was going to eat her, Did a bunch of playing around and in no time she was on it and comfortable even with cars passing so we started to journey down the road.
We passed by scary large rocks, guard rails, bright yelloe signs, puddles, snowbanks before we go to my house. I played with all the items, with a fun game called Touch It!
She was awesome, never jumped once just observed, snorted and was aware but not on edge. When we go to my house my dog was very nerous and protective with this BIG thing in the yard! But Bella was totally fine with my dog and was interested in the lake and the people that were on it, oh and FOOD, she thought she deserved more oats!
On our way home we played more with some objects, and when we got around the big corner I went a bit down another road and got on and road back the rest of the way and everything was perfectly fine, she was even coming off of the adreniline that she had, level headed and nicely relaxed.
She never fails to make me so proud of her each and everytime! This was a big step for her, shes never been on a trail ride before and never taken away like she was from another horse to go somewhere else! She handled it awesomely!
