First Day Arrival

May 25

When we arrived at the training facility we make a very bold move by putting another domestic horse in the round pen with the Mustang. Now normally, I would not have done this with an older more dominant Mustang. Given the fact that the Mustang was younger, we took a chance that the horses would not fight. Our plan worked out great!
After the horses got to know each other, I worked both of them at the same time in the round pen and the Mustang caught onto the concept of round penning and getting those feet to move in the direction that I wanted relatively easy. We removed the domestic white horse and worked the Mustang alone in the pen. Blossom did remarkably well on her own. We decided not to try and move her that evening so she stayed in the round pen over night by herself. She again ate all the grain, hay and water that was offered.
