I had another realization, contrary to the title, this is actually a good thing. I was just putzing around yesterday, petting Bella, and just trying to have fun with the horses. Moose wanted nothing to do with me. He was just standing a ways away, sleeping, not even interested. And IDK why, but it just came to me the reason for some of our troubles. When Moose is in that mood, I usually go halter him up and then go. Noooooo. Not the right thing to do.
See, I had been using the halter as how I got his mind, when in reality I have to get his mind so I can halter. That's why things don't work at liberty, is because he knows he's not wearing the halter, so he doesn't feel he needs to connect to me. Hmm, very interesting.
Definitely something to ponder. Just can't believe I didn't think of it earlier. Hope everyone's relishing the warm weather. I'm just soaking up the sun, it makes me really energized. 3 days until SD!!!! I'll probably post another send-off before I leave. Kudos!
