So after a long week of riding Xavier I've come back to dru with more knowledge, and as always, expecting more of him. We were both furthering our educations last week and had to come together and figure out how we could do it effectively. He was pretty frisky at first, he bit me and was being all girthy and kinda stupid. I decided just to lunge him and make sure we established right off who was in charge. After that he was pretty good. One thing I really like about him is the second I go into the saddle everything is about that moment. The craziness and frustration before I get on don't matter there. Same when at a show. I sit down and think let's get to work and all of my nerves or annoyances are gone. I've never had that with a horse before. Pretty good ride. He's an awesome horse.
