Lucy on the Pedestal Rock

Here's a clip of me playing with Lucy on a pedestal rock at liberty out in our woods using positive reinforcement! This stretch is also called Goat On The Mountain (GOTM)! We have been playing on rocks for about a year but she has just recently added her hind feet!!! It's amazing how comfortable she has become, feeling her way around the rock, testing it, trusting it, etc. Her balance and strength have improved a lot!!

Great job Brenda. I'd be scared to death that she'd slip off the rock and crack her leg against it, but I'm getting to be such an old lady about things like that! And obviously, she has much better balance than to do something like that! Kris

Ditto the last comments! Amazing and awesome!!! And again really inspiring!! So cool to see how this kind of work gets them thinking about all thier body parts. Ruby could really be helped by this. Thanks for posting! Go Lulu!!!
