No puppy class tonight so I was able to spend a little more time with PJ. In between spending time with Wyatt. Speaking of Wy, he sat at the stall and waited for me to finish pulling PJ's mane. I finally remembered my headlamp and boy did that help. Having PJ's neck level would have helped even more.

Rode dressage tonight, PJ was forward and relaxed except there was something in the woods that had been scaring other horses. Armed with this knowledge we cruise by with him trying to check it out and me saying no, go! Tried to round him at the canter and with a lot of effort I got. Circling helped. He took two funny steps behind. I will mentioned to farrier and vet to get their expert opinions.

Wy played fetch with Walker and B for quite a while. The E had brought Brita out so her and Wy got a chance to get familiar. Wyatt is cautious and soon warmed up to her. This is good as she runs fast. He slept through the night he was so tired.
