Day 37

We threw both of the horses out in the out door arena again today. They both had fun romping around. They were bucking, kicking and rolling. After a few minutes I tried to grab Upendi, but he dashed away before I could. I think it might have been because of my shiny glasses, but in a few seconds he came back to check me out and I grabbed him. Next we worked with distractions like Bunny being loose in the arena while we were in it and umbrellas opening and closing. I hooked up Bunny to her halter and walked both of them around. Then I got on Bunny bareback and ponied Upendi. I couldn't get him to come closer to me he was hanging around Bunny's butt. But he didn't care about me being in top of Bunny. After that we brought them back to their stalls and I clipped Upendi. I got around his eyes, his muzzle, bridle path, his legs and part of his ears. Next we took him out side to give him a bath. We tied him up this time and I sprayed him with water. I put stuff in his mane and tail and then I rinsed it off. We had on freak out moment and it was because the lead rope went over his head not because of the bath. I took him back to his stall when we were done and brushed his hair.
