I worked Jackson for about an hour. My
brother did come down and take pictures and
videos. As soon as I got to where we usually
work in the pasture and took the lead rope
off, Jackson laid down! It was funny. We
also got our first riding lie down! Even got
it on video! How cool is that? It is more of
a bow to a lie down, but still, fun! Here is
the link:
We also did a little work on the rear, but
he didn’t do great. He is getting height and
he is very enthusiastic, but he is not
holding it very long. I think I am going to
go back to helping him strengthen his back
and legs. It is fun to see how much muscle
he has gained in the last two months.
I also had him bow a couple of times. He
actually offered it a few times too! Before
the clicker training, he would never offer
the bow. He also like to take my whip and
chew on the ball on the end. Can’t take my
eye off of him.
My brothers started sledding and for some
reason Jackson doesn’t like that too much.
He would run away with his head and tail up.
Looked like an Arabian. Then he would stop
and come racing back to me! He would come to
a sliding stop right next to me. Which is
cool!
