Hey everyone! I have the second session with Mojave up and ready for you. You can see that I've changed my approach a bit this time... the first session gave me a good idea on what to work on in this session.

In this 8-9 minute session, we began working on facing up, and introducing the feel of touch with the rope. You can see that the energy in this video is a little higher... I like to try a few different approaches to see what works best for the horse. You can see there's a bit of a fine line with this dude between creating a draw and teaching him to join up and trying to add in touch. You'll see in session 3 that he quickly figures out that the energy isn't directed at him and he mellows out a bit when I toss the rope!

It's important I keep my body language calm while moving the rope around more... this is new to him so this reaction isn't a surprise.
