Liberty

Let me start by saying that I alway wanted to have this awesome bond with my horse so I could do all the cool stuff at liberty. Up until recently I never played at liberty for two reasons. 1) Chiclet would try and run me over and 2) he would leave and go right brained and jump the fence or go through it. So a few weeks ago my dear friend Avery helped me with this issue. We had a big break through it was so much fun I could see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Here we are a few weeks later and I think my horse has out smarted me. I thought today would be a good day for some liberty. Walked around did some sideways yo yo everything going good. Ok send him out on a circle he goes off trotting and then stops send again trot stop after a few steps. Hhmm what do I do now? After a few minutes of this I figured I need to do something else. I found myself running around more then he was. So a few weeks ago he would just take off like a rocket and have no confidence now he leaves and is like ok I guess and has all the confidence in the world. I guess I need to figure out what to do with his new found confidence.
