Little Jasper’s progress the other day was incredible to see 🤍🐴
At the start, he was very tense, unsure, and wouldn’t go anywhere near the mounting block, constantly looking back towards his owner, which is completely understandable as an ex lead rein pony.
With patience, reassurance, and taking everything at his pace, we worked on building his confidence around mounting and handling from the ground. By the end of the session, I was able to get on and off him calmly without any tension or uncertainty from Jasper, and he was walking absolutely amazing.
Although the saddle wasn’t fitting correctly, that doesn’t mean we can’t continue introducing him to the process and helping him become comfortable and confident with everything step by step.
He even offered a cheeky little trot once he started feeling comfortable and confident, which was lovely to see 🤍
I’m incredibly pleased with Jasper’s progress and so excited to continue building his confidence 🐴🤍
