Day 2










We named the Mustang "Shonee". I started out with a lariat, teaching him to lunge and throwing a rope across his back. After he's gotten a good sweat going, I roped him and slowly let him feel the tension of the rope. I used a long stick & string de-sensitizing him. He tolerates objects quickly, but definitely knows the difference between a nobject and my hand. He faces up almost too well. Shonee is reluctant to let me on his side or in his right eye. When I pushed the issue, he struck out - and got a whack for his trouble. Deliberate acts of agression are not acceptable.
