Day 234: AMAZING progress.

I so need to get new footage. Ike is doing SOOO beautifully at so many things. He's listening well in a halter on rides. He will walk up and down stairs and between rails. I've done a LOT of asking him to step in puddles and mud and he's made a TON of progress with those things. He's lowering his head with a touch at the base of his neck for a neck assisted mount as well as new as of today being asked to give me a leg up to mount. (Awesome!) he was just asked to move off leg pressure laterally more yesterday than any days prior. He's slowing on the with me and waiting when asked with an open gate to go to grass. Really want to teach him to lay down. Ordered a telescoping pole and am really wanting to involve Amocean more for liberty work with multiple horses simultaneously. :) awesome stuff. Oh!!! And the woman I originally apprenticed with asked me for help with liberty and her horses. That was sooooo cool and I feel so honored to be considered as a mentor to a former mentor. :)
