April 8, 2008

Today was almost an exact repeat of Sunday, with me lungeing both of the boys in the hayfield, then doing some backing, yielding of the hindquarters and forequarters, and desensitizing.  Onyx dragged me a bit more than he did on Sunday - I don't know if he thought leaving the hayfield would make the work stop or if he was just pulling me down the hill!  After, we took the boys on a quiet, casual stroll up to Boot Hill with a stop in front of the run-off ditches.  Elsa had to put Lilly-Belle down today.

Almost 50mm of rain by this morning, but Dave was able to take them for a walk, let them graze and put them in the roundpen in the evening.
