Nadia under saddle
Nadia is doing great! She is now going walk, trot and canter off the lungeline in the big arena. She was a little testy about being ridden at first, being sulky about going forward and generally crabby, but finally instead of trying to work with her like a horse that was not yet started with a ground person, the trainer took her off the lungeline and just pushed her forward around the arena and as soon as she started moving forward she started behaving much better. She is green, but has obviously had some training (probably western) and she has a great whoa on her. Yesterday Dr. Hannah came out and checked her out as the trainer wanted to make sure she was not sore in her back, and we also had her teeth done and her shots. We will leave her in training a little while longer, but she is officially available for adoption!
