Iceman Update 09/10/09

Not too much to report with Iceman, but all is going well. Eric spent about 2 hours with him on Wednesday and continued making contact with face. We would love to be alot further along than we are, but when you can only be out at the ranch two or three days a week to work Iceman, we have to take what we can get. Finally being able to rub Iceman's left cheek area, under the flymask, and around the halter is some great progress for us. Its always like "starting over" each time you get into his area, but it doesn't take long before you are able to pick up where you left off. Things are moving along slowly, but surely...and when all Iceman's "light bulbs" have come on, the reward and payoff of everyone's hard work will be wonderful.

On a different note, Iceman will have some more adjusting to do. His best friend, Woody, was recently adopted on Tuesday. Iceman become pretty attached to Woody over the last few months, but hopefully having Maverick recently introduced will fill that void.
