We bought a hula hoop for our Mustang and he thought it was the best toy ever. He'd toss it around and even got it over his head and onto his neck at one point. Then he tried to eat it and we had to take it away.Olivia @ DIY Horse Ownershiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16138490796669110523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4010353728052033100.post-77919934361868211292016-08-05T12:56:58.806-04:002016-08-05T12:56:58.806-04:00He totally understood he could leave the flares be...He totally understood he could leave the flares behind by simply walking past them. The hula hoop, not so much!<br /><br />Sophie and Felix have become quite the bonded pair. Felix seeks her out for the most part, but every now and then I catch Sophie looking for Felix and then plopping down to snuggle.Codex Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736021620789376995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4010353728052033100.post-80538665797626011592016-08-05T12:53:44.068-04:002016-08-05T12:53:44.068-04:00He was so good!

I really struck gold with this horse.<br /><br />The rein length is interesting- I guess it's more about the give and how much freedom he thinks he has. It's like he gets claustrophobic if I'm too restrictive with my hands... which totally, 100% makes sense to me when I've taught him that he will always be safe if he keeps moving forward. Every one of his blow ups has been when "the front door" has been shut and he's felt trapped: rearing instead of walking onto the trailer, rearing and flying backwards in the crossties, hopping in the canter when we started asking for more collection.Codex Dressagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736021620789376995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4010353728052033100.post-54519031824212858342016-08-05T12:41:03.452-04:002016-08-05T12:41:03.452-04:00I love that he's not bothered by flares, but h...I love that he's not bothered by flares, but hula hoops are death.
