Day 3 of working with Luke for the Dakota Showdown!
Today I went back out to see Luke and got him in the round pen sadly he had already lost his halter so we had to go back for round 2 which was easier than the first time. After getting the second halter back on, I messed around with a little bit, tugging on it lately to see how he felt about having pressure on and off after seeing that he did good with it. I decided that would be a good time to try and put a rope on so while he was eating from the bucket, I clipped it on he did really good, so I decided to start walking him around which I do not have a video of because I was focusing fully on him at the time, using pressure and release until he was doing good at it and ending off on a good note.
If you’re interested and like what you see me and Luke doing, please follow along and stay tuned, especially if you’re considering getting a horse around one to three. Maybe Luke will be the one for you!
