Weekend One

Saturday was declared human day and as such the bare minimum was done with the horses; mucking out , feeding and watering. I spent the day visiting a local western tack shop and cathcing up on emails, my blog entries and photographs.

The western tack shop was so not my style and even made me feel vaguely uncomfortable with so many 'predator' items and dead animals hanging around the walls. I don't think I'll be visiting any more in a hurry!


Sunday was declared human and horse day, so I spent the whole morning with Roget practicing stuff we covered last week and bonding. This morning was really successful and I think we made alot of progress with our communication. My signals need only be subtle and soft to gain a response (I think the carrot incentives are proving very powerful!).

After lunch, I went back to bed to read and rest. I was more exhausted than I had realised and needed to reenergise ready for the next week.
