We led him! Wow, what a breakthrough. He trusts us when he's got the halter on, and took a few hesitant steps forward. Christina thinks that I should always be the one leading him since he trusts me more, and she's walking behind. I don't like that though, I want him to be comfortable with many people. As much as I would love to keep him even for just the summer, I can't. Sara talked about how she can do a lot with a horse in thirty days, but if the owner doesn't continue it at the end of the thirty days its all for naught. That's kind of how I feel about Bob Marley. Sure I'm training him, but if at the end of the six weeks he's not ready to perform for someone else, I'm wasting my time.
I wish I could get in his head and tell him I'm not going to hurt him. He knows that, I see it in his eyes, but he still doesn't trust us. What next?
