It’s been a bit since I’ve been on here to post and make any updates on any training or lessons so I’m here to make on update on Dakotas training and post about lessons!
The last update I made on Dakota was about him finally starting to follow his nose when riding and stopped his bucking when loping.
Couple months after that post, training did come to a stop for a bit due to becoming pregnant with my beautiful son and being high risk in the beginning of my pregnancy so I had to take a break. At the end of my pregnancy, I picked back up on training with Dakota and was riding and showing as I wasn’t high risk anymore. After having my son and was healed from labor. I went right back into working Dakota everyday when I got a chance to and within 6 months I finally got Dakota to his first show and it took off from there. And I will say over the last year all my hard work in those 6 months has paid off.
Dakota has found love in running barrels and any speed class I throw at him. He has became SUCH a nice barrel horse and I couldn’t be anymore prouder of me for where he is but also him for giving me his absolute best. I always heard that gelding don’t try hard like mares do but this horse tries his ABSOLUTE hardest for me and I love that. He is eager to learn and get the job done. I’m excited for show season this year to see where we go in the show pens. I still have some training to do on him as I’d like to make him an all arounder and do more than speed with him in the future.
Now lessons, after all these storms and now it being nice out I’ll be starting lessons up.
