The more I ride V the more I like him. He has really grown up. He was SO good the past 2 nights. Wednesday night I rode him for over an hour. It was 9pm when I got off of him. The cats were RUNNING around and being crazy, the wind was blowing, and there were 2 other horses in the arena that were working hard. They were doing lots of trotting and were being ridden by kids so they didn't give V as much room as an adult would have. It was good for him!
We chased some cats and did LOTS of trotting. I could trot him all day! He was a little stubborn about steering at first but quickly got over it and realized that I do all the decision making. We even grabbed a rain jacket off the fence and shaked it all over then took it to another fence post.
The best part was last night. We were standing in the arena closest to the road and 3 fire trucks with lights and sirens and 2 ambulances went BLARING by. He hardly cocked an ear! Not 10 minutes after that 15 or so LOUD harleys and crotch-rockets went flying by. He was a champ!
