@dreamori Mystic is on the border between Left Brain Extrovert and Left Brain Introvert, generally confident, playful and a bit pushy, very proud of himself when he knows the right answer. He flips to right brain introvert when he loses confidence - which you can clearly see when we do the figure eights around the barrels in this video. Freeze, stare, 'what am I supposed to do?' I used to think he was being argumentative, but realized that slowing down and waiting works best.
I have added some annotations about the tasks that Mystic and I are doing on this video. You can check them out while watching the video by clicking on the Annotations Editor top right of the video. Enjoy!
Thanks. Gaited horses are a blessing for those with cranky backs and that is just the icing on the cake. I loved their affectionate and lively temperaments long before my back started complaining about sitting a trot. PNH works with any horse.
Thanks so much. We have a ways to go to match your inspiring savvy, but we are progressing. Mystic is a good boy and yes, he is beautiful. Because he syncs in so well to my seat and energy in the stick to me game, he is easy to ride off my seat and energy too. Our chocolate lab just thinks that we pay way too much attention to horses instead of to him! He keeps telling me he could do everything we ask of the horses (except riding them) first try with one paw tied up.
Hi Jackie,You have a great relationship with your horse!! Congratulations on earning your Level 3 Liberty!!! You have some things that are well beyond Level 3 already, including your Friendly game, your horse draw and the subtle conversation you have with your horse!
As you continue to progress develop your circling game at liberty. You should be able to stand in the center in neutral and have your horse circle you up to 10 laps at trot and canter.
Cool! What is his horsenality?
