Awesome 👌 My daughter is learning that horses are a lot of work but she is like a horse whisperer with them. The ranch has a couple of skiddish ponies that rarely let anyone near them willingly but she can approach them and halter them so she has been working one on one with them in their enclosed arena. My daughter is a little behind her peers socially but fits in great with horses.

Horses are a good judge of character, they can hear you breathing and your heartbeat. They know what you are thinking and you cannot hide it from them. They know if your scared, irritated etc. and will behave accordingly.

My daughter's last day of placement for school at the horse ranch yesterday. She will continue to volunteer on the weekends until summer when they have offered to hire her. This is a perfect opportunity for her as she is very vulnerable and taken advantage of in the real world but is in her element with horses.

Thats a very good thing, my trainer moved to another state, but we are far enough along that we have been doing the riding lessons for my Granddaughter ourselves. been going well. My horse is about ready also. I could ride him in the arena but would like to find someone to trail ride him before I do.
