June 14-21 Rupert is doing better

I have now watched Clinton Anderson Video's 1-10. Added to Rupert's routine is desensitizing with a rope, backing, disengaging the HQ, touching the nose to his barrel, yielding the 4 hand and leading turing 90 degrees L and 90 degrees right. I am still doing round pen work "off line"

Interestingly his mom whinnies initially but goes back to grazing quickly. What has helped as Clinton said is working a few days in a row. Each day he gets better. I have a video and some photo's to download tomorrow. Stay tuned.
