Horse, Follow Closely

"The essence of a horseman, both his skill and intuition, goes beyond the hours he spends in the saddle." - Horse, Follow Closely by GaWaNi Pony Boy

Title chosen from a Native American Horsemanship book my grandma got years and years ago and used to train Destiny's aunt, only found it fitting that because this picture was taken on the ranch in which Destiny and her aunt (along with Destiny's grey uncle most of you know of, and Destiny's mother) were born on, that I use it.

This picture is of a little palomino Pony our friends had their for who knows what. Some people sent him over to see if they could get him ridden down some, but they have too many others to work on an unpaid horse where they had no idea if he was even properly broke. So, my friend decided to get him out and do a join-up with him, and then her mom, who is planning on getting certified for training, rode him around (he wasn't very well trained XD). This was taken toward the middle of the session, after he started listening to her motions and body movement.

When she started saddling him up in there, he actually would take the leg wraps and bell boots and flip them up with his lip, and when she'd reach up to grab it, he'd drop it. It was soooo cute and had us all laughing. But yeah, figured I'd upload this, I love the effect his falling, long forelock gives the picture life, so I knew I wanted to leave that in there. I have a lot more pictures of him that I might upload as stock later on. He was a cutie though.

"Just as the native amiercan rider's ability to communicate with horses was nothing short of spectacular, so was the horse's ability to interpret commands given on an instant's notice." - Horse, Follow Closely, GaWaNi Pony Boy
