Shine is sure growing! He is also learning quickly. We did some trailer practice today and I am looking forward to getting on his back, but that is still several months away. Shine is learning to listen to me and seems to enjoy working with me as well.
The other day a boy walked across behind him carrying a saddle, and Shine just looked back at him calmly. Maybe he's thinking, "when will it be my turn?" *Smile*
We also jumped over a few low X jumps. Shine stayed right with me and didn't halt on his way over at all. He's catching on fast!
