Nolund on Cinnamon - dally and drag - 29 Aug 2024

First Cinnamon was taught to lead by each foot (like in this video of Hank being led by each foot https://rumble.com/v1n5qt0-leading-a-horse-by-a-foot-by-each-foot-in-turn-8-oct-2022.html ). Then Cinnamon was gently acclimated to the soft rope touching her by Nolund tossing it over her - tossing it under her - tossing it so it wrapped around her legs - etc.. Then Nolund from a bit out away from Cinnamon started swinging a loop over his head as he walked around Cinnamon while I held her lead. Once Nolund's arm tired out I swung the rope a while then with Nolund holding the lead I roped Cinnamon - middle - back - then front. Then Nolund mounted up and from the saddle gently tossed the soft rope various places on Cinnamon and once she settled to that - started swinging a loop over head. Once she settled to that I demo'd dally and drag for him with Avi - again covering the "keep your thumb up" safety rule among others. And then with me on the lead to assist and Nolund mounted up we did a back up dally and drag followed by a forward pull dally and drag. Then Nolund was on his own and I shot this video.

Training horses always involves some risk of injury (or even death) to the horse, the trainer, any spectators, equipment used, etc. - this risk is totally your own as you will be making your own judgements on what to do. As with any suggestions on any subject you must weigh them out for yourself and proceed accordingly - at your own risk.

Remember to intentionally, on purpose, learn of God each day by prayerfully reading, studying, and pondering upon God's word each day. Talk to God in prayer as your Heavenly Father who would like for you to be His friend. Find out what He would like you to do for Him as His friend and go and do it for Him as His friend. Yes very intentionally, very much on purpose, become the friend of God. And have a blessed day!!
