Training Ike

I’ve been riding Ike for a couple weeks now and he is really broke. When it comes time to ride him I’m always looking forward to it. He has this pitter patter little western jog that is really nice to ride. We’ve been working on transitions within his gaits so I’ve been getting to ride the little jog a lot! Ike is the kind of horse that really wants to please, wants to stay out of your way and get things done the easiest way possible. Once he knows what I’m asking he does it heart and soul. It has been really fun riding him because he likes to do the things that people ask horses to do. He likes to lope slow but he can speed it up. He likes to stop but will go all day. He likes to be soft, he literally likes it. He does it on his own. I’m going to be sad to see Ike go to his next home.
