Catalina

Catalina and i have began to work on should fore and more leg yielding excersises which is very exciting.
We are still waiting a bit longer to begin canter work until the trot is fully rideable and organized.
She is really understanding the work and maintaining a great attitude.

Her bowing is becoming very consistent and soon she will be able to do it with me on her back.

catalina is very active behind and so we are going slow because she uses her hind end so much that her muscles get tired fairly quickly.
Mentally she will go forever and in the wrong hands i think this horse could be easily over faced.
If you over train a young horse when the muscles are tired you risk that the horse will loose heart and become discouraged.
It is so important that we ask to do the young horse only as much as they can physically handle.

One month to the Debbie McDonald clinic and Catalina's first adventure off the farm.
