Horse Tantrum & First Ride

JeeNee is in training. Yesterday, taking her into a new place to work for the first time, asking her to canter, and her being on the wrong lead (plus going into season) will give you this:

JeeNeeLearning to longe like a lady.






The tantrum is coming...






Wait for it...

Gearing up good and getting pushy...

Ahhh, there it is:






Like a child, she started out being a little bit difficult before going into full-blown tantrum mode, lol.

She lost. She was allowed to stop once she behaved and did what she was supposed to:






Now that she's being a good girl again and is tired, it's time for me to sit on her for the first time.

My first time on my filly:







She was too tired after her tantrum to care:








She sure enjoyed her sponge bath afterward!

My daughter took the pictures of me on her. She got a close up of me getting off of her but I'll spare everybody that one:)

This morning, I went back to the stable so our trainer could show me how to longe her myself. We took her into the arena she is used to and I longed her. She was great. No tantrums today.
