Meet Lucky Star! He’s my Lucky Star day to have him as my 2012 project! He’s fantastically naturally gaited, confident and left brained. He’s light. He has been started with no problem at all. He’s been unemployed as a pasture horse until 11/20/11 when he came home to live in my pasture. I plan to develop him and ride him at the Missouri World Celebration in Ava, Mo in September 2012. Then he just might be for sale. He is owned by Teresa and Junior Osborn.
We had our first playtime today. He’s wonderful to play with. I got all the burrs out of his tail today. That was major.
He’s starting to recognize me as the dominant horse and is thinking about being my friend.
He got upset when Velvet and Goldie disappeared from sight. Then the neihbor horses started calling. So, Lucky Star’s energy went up a little and his attention was sadly diverted from me. We played for a while to get the attention back to me. I walked him out a little way in the corral and turned him loose when he could turn his head towards me and relax. I turned him loose and walked away. He followed me.
That’s huge!
