Hasn't been a lot to report lately on Gladys and Sienna.  They are both healthy, happy horses right now.  To see them, you would have no idea that they were so starved and emaciated.  :-)  They both willingly come to me in the pasture, are easily haltered and lead well.  I had my trainer come on Sunday to help me get Gladys started with her training.  She worked on getting Glad to give to pressure on the halter, walking and watching body cues as to when to start and halt.  When she tries to barge through me, I am to circle her in a tight circle, or at times make her back.  She was also introduced to the lunging whip.  Just taking in over her body and getting her used to the feel of it rubbing over her body.  Gladys is a very intelligent mare.  You can tell she's constantly thinking about what you are asking her.  She is not going to be an "easy" mare to train and ride.  I'm thinking it will need to be a rider that absolutely is confident in their ability to ask and gain her trust and partnership.  SO, not too sure she's going to be the horse for Jerry.... :-(  But, that's OK...  I'll ride her.
