Hi everyone, havent worked out how to get pics on yet, but will put one on as soon as.
Louie came to me on Wednesday, I was so excited and he stayed in overnight just so he could relax a bit. He was a monster yesterday and I really was a bit miffed because he was so bolshy pushing his weight about. He is 15.3hh and can be strong on the ground. He can also be a bit handy with his teeth if he can get away with it! I persevered with him today and caught him and brushed him. I was wondering when I might have the courage to get on him for the first time when the yard owner said 'we are just going out, pop his tack on and come'. It was really hot today and we hacked into the woods where it was cool. He was so good and I am so pleased because not only does it restore my confidence in myself, but also in him and the partnership we are going to have.
