After this morning there is no doubt in my mind that Booger is my horse, this morning when I got there and after I had set everything up, I headed out to the pasture and as I passed the outside of the arena, Booger was already heading my way. He didn't even struggle when I put the string around his neck and walked him up to the gate. I then groomed him and made him real handsome, then we headed into the arena to do some online groundwork which went really well. I videotaped our session, this time when I asked him to move his forequarters, he didn't make any fuss. It was a little more difficult with his hindquarters this time but not too much really. The saddle work went well too, we didn't do too much cantering as he was still pretty sore from going barefoot since yesterday morning. We did a bit of trotting and did the "all systems check" first, which he did really well too. I don't care how long or what happens, Booger is definitely mine and I will do whatever it takes to have him and build our relationship.
Today we are going over to my sister Shauna's for Caleb's birthday party, he turned 3 today. Gosh I can't believe how fast he is growing up, I really hope he likes his gifts along with Skyler and her's. Tomorrow I am going to go work with Booger again, probably the same time as today. Then my organization ( Runners United for Furry Fosters) has a meeting at 6, we are having it at Hacienda so this should be fun.
