Hi Victor, Thx for the friend add. Great videos!! I will definately be trying things you have suggested with my Cooper. Is it raining there? It is here in Etobicoke, supposed to rain all weekend, that means lots and lots of mud at the barn!!
Have a great weekend!

Thanks for the compliment on the big mare! She's a solid Paint; her dam is almost 100% Wiescamp, sire has Jetalito lines.

The weather was yucky in Caledon and Etobicoke on the weekend. I was chatting with someone in Sundridge and they said it was gorgeous up that way!! How was it in Wasaga? Did you work with your guys?
Cooper was so wet, but his blanket kept him dry underneath. Can't say the same for his pasture mates, they were soaked under rainsheets and had to get them changed. He was rubbing his neck all over me, either to dry off or he was cold or an itch?? He also did it the the horses that came out with dry sheets on LOL
I didn't do anything with him on the weekend, sure hope to this weekend, the weather is supposed to be nice. I wish I could win a lottery and not have to work so I could spend these beautiful days with him (don't we all wish that!!)

Hope you have a great time there, some day I will go to that, but not this year. I signed up for a Josh Lyons clinic at 5starranch, it's almost in my backyard, well about 45 minutes away LOL My very first clinic, I am so excited!! Auditing only, is that what it's called? I don't have a trailer to take Cooper anywhere right now.
I went to see Cooper last night, it was daylight longer and the weather was fantastic! He saw me from a distance and came to me without even calling. I brushed him through the fence because I couldn't get through the mud. As I was grooming him he was trying to groom me, had to watch my ears LOL. Then at grain time he still left his bucket and came to me, what a great feeling. I sure felt better being with him!
I have to work on his manners and I know it starts with me not hand feeding him for one. He gets very pushy and in my face looking for treats. I raise my arm and block, but he still pushes in looking for them. Any ideas? I know, no more treats until he learns to behave!!

Dan in his "St. Patty's Day" outfit...............LOL!!

Hi Victor,
I had to reopen my account with Barnmice under a different email address......somehow I got disabled from all my NING sites....it wouldn't let me on.
Either I did something "illegal" and they booted me off.....or something else happened. I am not that computer savvy and if I did something that the NING sites didn't like, well, I wouldn't be the wiser. I have no clue?? I like to post alot, maybe that was it?? I don't know...
anyways, I am under a new email and new page......got to start over with posting all my stuff again....grrr.
How have ya been? I have been out on the trails agan....it was 84 degrees here in southeast Wisconsin!!

Hi Victor,
So, I rec'd this message late last night, after I reopened new accounts! GRRR!!!
