The driving bug struck when I was struggling to find a purpose for the mini's. Especially since Remy hit the ground.
Friend of mine let me know a decent harness was sitting on consignment for a great price. So I snatched that up. It needed some adjustments, but a quick visit to an Amish Harness shop put us on the right track! Shortly after the harness became available the same friend (chuckle) told me about a mini cart on Craigslist... Another trip home with bounty! The cart is in great need of restoration, but that'll come after we are adjusted to pulling it.
Sierra took to driving like a fish to water.
We planned on pushing her until she was uncomfortable, well, this was the end of a 45 minute session...
It was like she had been driven before, but I know for a fact she hadn't. I did do a fair about of ground driving and ground work as a youngster (She's now 4).
^ Can you tell I was proud of her?
This was from our first day with the blinders on, she was great, the bridle was a bit long and considering it was her 4th time with a bit in her mouth... She was brilliant!
