Romeo working his first gate 3 May 2023

Romeo the fox trotting tall pinto TWH has been in training since 13 April 2023. He initially struggled catching on to do the pass around the haunches on cue. After doing some ground work he finally made the connection and he also caught on to the side pass from that same ground work session. Learning to work a hinged gate is moving to a practical application of the lateral movements he has been learning but is far from having them mastered. Often horses struggle with working a gate - they are afraid the gate is going to hit them OR that they are going to hit the gate - they are afraid to get close enough to the gate to work it - and so forth. So watch how I work Romeo through two different methods of working the gate - this first time he has worked a gate.

Remember to read, study, and ponder upon God's word each day and also pray each day to find out what God needs you to do today and then do it. And have a blessed day!!
