I have an old wide tree thorowgood dressage saddle I put on Nasi loosely (doesnt matter if it doesnt fit cause he's not being ridden) and we go for long walks like walking a dog, we go up and down sand piles, into the creek, over the bridges. normal trail obstacles. I sense he looks forward to it! he really enjoys being out and seeing new things. I even put Tivars sidepull on him a couple of times.
One thing I am planning--- just circumstances have it that he is never trailered except for something he might not find pleasant, to the vet mainly. last time I tried to load him he was hesitant, altho recently I had the horses out in front and left the trailer open and there was a little Nasi sized "gift" left in there so he is not afraid of the trailer, just getting to where he dreads being hauled cause its never fun. So I am planning to take him to the arena tomorrow along with stonewall and let nasi get attention from pretty young girls. He likes that. Janice yipie tie yie yo
