It was nice and sunny today, so much so, Bonny didn't want to do a lot at all... infact she would have preferrred to just doze thank you very much! I did manage to persuede her to do circle game at trot, she wasn't impressed, kept trying to escape out the gate. To give her a break we went and watched Donna practising getting on Rocky. He was doing a strange thing with his mouth...neck stretched out and head tilted to one side. He only did it when standing at the mount block, introverted behaviour I think. Donna was getting more and more annoyed cos he wouldn't stand still, obviously his strange head neck thing was worrying her too, so I suggested she didn't get on and said she could ride Bonny instead. A few lateral flexions and hind quarter disengages later Donna was much happier, although Rocky was working himself up into a sweat cos he was on his own! could this be jealousy? He doesn't bother at all if I go and play with Bonny when Donna isn't there, he just waits by the gate for us.
Bonny was a little sweaty when I took her saddle of so she had a quick bath, not all over just back and legs... now she has white legs again. I did mean to get a picture but I totally forgot, maybe next time.
riding 1 hr = 3hrs
