Gingy and I did all kinds of things today! We did traveling circle between the cones, trotting over the cavelettis, touch it with treats(his favorite game LOL), zone 4/5 driving, and backing his hind feet into the bucket from 20 feet away!
Today I remembered to go slow and do lots of friendly. For a little bit he was showing tremendous energy, but after awhile it died off. I think I might of pushed him too hard so then he lost his energy, but I almost made the mistake of continuing to push him after he slowed down. So hooray for me! I got slow and friendly instead of fast and ferious LOL
I think my favorite thing about this session was when we did z4/5* driving. Gingy was sooooooo connected! When I just randomly stopped on the spot he stopped right with me and he didn't try to get back in z1* like he sometimes does. Even when we neared the hay pile in front of the shed and stopped he stopped too, of course it to a little wiggle to maintain that stop LOL. I guess actually I had two favorite things about this session. My other favorite moment was when we got out in the pasture and I set him up to back into the bucket. We were, like I said, 20 feet away. He knew exactly what I wanted and back all of the way there. When he hit the bucket he wasn't quite sure how to get both feet in, but he tried really hard for me.
