Sigfrid Star


Yesterday Sigge arrived to us, During funny circumstances, altough with a energy like at least He knew, that this was his plan.

Sigge is 9 years, a Deutsche Reitpony, 146 cm ca.

Ridden but not educated, he do not want anyone to ride him, at all.

Ok, No problem, Its just to start from the beginning.

Right?

Only to lunge him was ok, but to put pressure on him, for example to stop him, he exploded.

5 rounds later, he stopped only by a small movement from my hand.

Great, sucess :-)

After next 5 rounds he also turned and changed direction only by a small movement from my hand.

Great!

Peuh, an energetic young man!

And then, we started to work with the flag.

What the heck did he ask, Not only that you SPEAK funny???

You also have a FLAG that fits to your funny dialect????



I dont believe it, I dont want to look he said ;))

After 5 times running backwards and jumping in the air, he at least stood very still, even though he refused to give me any eye-Contact, he finally let me touch him with the flag :-)))


That woman he said, whats wrong with her? And not only that woman, she also had a person, a younger version of herself doing strange things, like WALKING around with the flag! Hm...


Ok, If I dont breath, dont move and just stand totally still, maybee she think I´m dead and stop?


After ca 5-10 min, Sigge was ready to move around again to get rid of all tension he collected by standing still very...still, ;)) And I send him out on the circle again, he stretched and jawed and had some funny noises and really showed that he relaxed and was a bit tired.

I repeated to send and stop him with my hand in both directions and then I started the next level of work as the absolutely last thing, to collect his body and use his hindlegs:


Not bad to be the first day on work :-))
