Hi everyone!

I have been off for about a year, but now I'm back, looking forward to read interesting topics on this forum again :)

In the mean time Lucky and I were working on self-carriage. I really wish we could work at the liberty, but we don't have any fenced surfaces that would be big enough and appropriate for training, so we have to go out to a meadow, with a cordeo on.
I also tried some ridding with cordeo, and for the start he looked very pretty and nicely collected.

Here is a short video:

I decided it is time to see how strong is the connection between me and Lucky so got him loose on the meadow next to his paddock. I still kept the headcollar on, in case he would run away. But to my surprise, he stayed beside me the whole time! We were runing around, jumping over the fence, doing pirouettes... He really likes to do the figure eight exercise - after he has the mouth full of apples of course :roll: :funny:

Shouldn't you better say "even though he had a mouth full of apples"? It really shows a wonderful connection between you both! :thumleft:
