Iceman's Big Day 9/20/09

Sunday was a huge day for Dave, Eric, and Iceman. Dave and Eric decided they were going to get down to business and put their skills to the test. Within a few minutes they had Iceman completely saddled and started the journey over to one of our round pens. Iceman was successfully led across the property and entered the pen without too much difficulty. As Iceman was worked, he stayed focused and seemed to be processing and understanding, licking those lips often. After about an hour or so, they decided it was time to call it a day, and Iceman was led back to his stall. Iceman was unsaddled, reunited with Sidewinder, and went back to business as usual stuffing his face in his hay pile. It was a huge accomplishment for Dave and Eric, and hopefully next weekend will be just as exciting.
