today was a good day, I put Ruger back in the roud pen and worked her on the longe line with "whoa" and turning to face me when she stopped. She did amazing! I've set aside focusing on "touching" her and turned to working with ground work and leading. The rest will follow when she decides she wants to be touched, she will let me know. I know that some other people are touching and saddling thier horses already, but I really think thats too fast. I want to be riding her by the 4th week, and I think when I get there she will be ready. We also discovered sweet feed today...aka horsie crack... she's hooked!
My mom worked her mare today, and they she got pretty close to touching her. She has a cool personality..but i'm glad i ended up with Ruger. :)
I'll post more photos tomarrow.
