I have worked with Biscuit every day this week. I worked with a dressage whip - snaking it around his feet, touching him all over with it. Also worked on his ground manners of stopping when asked. Haven't had a problem catching him to halter him.
Saturday I gave him a bath so I had my hands all over him. I used blueing on his mane and tail and they were whiter.
Today I got out there and his break away halter was on the ground. It was too large on him so after I fed him and cleaned the arena, I poked more holes into the halter breakaway leather piece. I then worked on his ground manners and with the dressage whip. He did a good job today. I walked him to his pasture and gave him a treat and then turned him loose. He trotted then cantered over to the water barrel and then rolled.
I went back late this afternoon and he came into the pen area and I put his purple halter on and fed him. Lots of treats and good boys going on.
