Today it was really cold, wet and windy - so after lunch me and Corine went home for a few hours and watched a film as it was just too cold to be outside all day.
When we got back I turned the ponies loose in arena to get all their extra energy out of them but they didn’t really have that much today. Blossom then caught me well and I played a little with her to get her focus on me and her energy tuned in to mine. Then saddled her and we went and giot Smarty to catch us which he done quite well. I then mounted Blossom and led Smarty, but it really didn’t go very well. Smarty didn’t want to lead and when he did come up the side of Blossom, she would then try and bite him. We managed a few laps of the arena but it just wasn’t going very well, so I decided to swap and ride Smarty and lead Blossom.
This went so much better and we really had a nice session with two very LB relaxed ponies, so I think it was a good decision to change. So I think I will get Smarty more used to being lead from one of the ponies at home, and then I will try him again with Blossom.
