Hey Lester. I loved the intro to the video. 😘 You could tell the UPS guy was nervous getting out of the truck with all the girls there to greet him. 😬 Yes, the gravel truck driver knew what he was doing. Lester, I had show horses, race horses, and pleasure riding horses. I would lunge them to get muscle toning, exercising, discipline, and to warm them up before riding. It just takes repetition and before long it will be easy. I wish Carl would take a chill pill.😮 So great to see IVY and Beverly back at LHL. I so wish Jami was able to ride Storm. There is nothing like riding your horse and bonding with them. ❤❤❤
@rososborne39954 ай бұрын
Lester, you asked for advice about lounging horses and I would like to add a bit of my learning. Firstly, it is common knowledge to never wear sunglasses when ground working any animal especially equine as they read your eyes just as a foal reads its dam's eyes or a predator. We are predators. Also the darker the lens it mirrors and reflect the sunlight. All very scary and confusing for the horses. Running in mindless circles does nothing really, however changing pace, backing up, turning circles add to exercising the brain and keeping the horses concentrating on you, their herd leader. Just another suggestion that I learned with our various round pens is, if we placed conveyer mattin, ( we used second hand as much cheaper) to edge the fence panels stopped the sand from being pushed out or hoof/legs accidentally getting caught. I sincerely hope you find these things helpful to you and the horses.

Lester, you are doing quite well in your abilities as a lunger. It takes practice. The discipline includes breaking the horses from being barn sour.👍🏻

I'm glad you got Ivy to a dry lot. If you notice Ivy's neck, it looks like she is getting a crease below her mane on the neck. In donkeys, if they are eating too many carbs, starch, they will start to get that. They is why in Oatman Az, you get a fine for feeding the donkeys, human food, etc. Just an observation since she is getting older.

Lunging can be great to get extra energy out of a horse and build their muscles but you should always start slow with a walk to trot to canter on both sides and then back down canter, trot, walk like people you need to warm up then cool down the muscles so they don't get damaged. Rita is still young so shouldn't really do more than 15/20 minutes with her until she's older and the others about 30 mins. It's also a great way for you to see if there are any problems with their legs as they move and it is good for bonding and they should learn to listen to you. It is very helpful to use a different sound for what you want like tut for walk, kissing sound for trot, cluck for canter and woah for stop and be consistent with it so they learn and understand what you want. Hope this is helpful to you xx
