| | As the winter is coming, and I won't be able to take Rascal out for walks or anything, I was planning on doing some stuff with him in the arena(when people aren't in there, stuff like off the lead line) I'd love to do join up, but it's hard because I'm in an arena(even though it's small, it's hard) and I can't like move jumps or anything to section off an area of the arena. Also keep in mind, he will try to play and will kick at you, buck like towards you, or stand right front of you and rear straight up. So just keep that in mind with your ideas. The chiropracter had us doing some natural horseman stuff, like having him out of your personal space but I had to stop doing it because he would do stupid stuff(rear/buck) and wasn't safe to work with in that way.

| Set up a "fun day". I try to throw a few fun days for Trick every year. It's basically where you put out poles and an assortment of scary stuff in an arena and take your horse (you're not on) and walk him through and around it. Some stuff I use are tarps, poles put in complicated patterns, and just anything that freaks your horse out.  This really helps them to get used to stuff that you may jump or see at a show because you're on the ground leading them, telling them that it's okay.
