Off night for sure. I started lunging Meika without a lead rope which we had done before with good results. Not tonight. She was plugish and slow and didn't want to draw in. She did it once and then was non compliant after that. I put the lead rope on her twice after that. She knows this, I know this but for some reason not tonight.
I did saddle and bridal her on my own tonight so this was a first! The cinch was alittle loose but other than that I did it right. Yeah me!
Fred lunged Serenity for a bit then mounted her. He was tense for whatever reason. At the same time Meika was giving me hell. She knows the rails around the pen but tonight decided she didn't want to walk the rail. I kept having to make her get closer to the rail which made me frustrated at me and her. I don't think Fred or I were in the right mind set tonight. More lunging, more training and more patience is in order....next time.
Sorry Amy. We'll do better next time. Promise.
