She was simply AMAZING. We encountered a ton of obstacles on our ride. Highway tunnels, manhole covers, and even a couple bicycles.
According to J, apparently the manhole cover creates a ton of angst with most horses that go by it- Quest gave it a look and walked on like it was nothing. The biker was a little more worrisome for her but she handled it fine. We did about 2.5 miles in 45 minutes. Quest still had plenty of forward. She does great following in the back and staying the middle. I didn't get a chance to see how well she leads yet but it'll be something for later. I'm already quite pleased with how she did today.
Woo hoo, success!! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
DeleteAwesome! Though I'm not surprised. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think the rational side of my brain was trying to curb expectations lol
Deletegood job Quest! isabel always has a look at anything 'unnatural' too - which can include manhole covers but also graffiti lol
ReplyDeleteAww, silly Izzy! I think the highway traffic zooming overhead probably took precedence for Quest in her case haha
DeleteWhat a good girl!
ReplyDeleteShe really is, all the forward ears (:
