First Video of O So!

[O So]

Today I remembered to push record on my phone when I got O So into the arena! I barely got his lead off and he was rolling in the dirt! Boy what a dirty boy he ended up being! LOL

I tried to take video of him running but he looked like a speck going through a dirt field! The iPhone doesn't zoom "yet"! Are you listening Apple? LOL I am charging my video camera and will try to take it the next time I go there!

I learned that I need to teach him to come to me on command! I was getting a bit nervous when he was way down at the other end, and I didn't want to leave the gate area I was at. The arena has bar spacing perfect for him, but the gate is a different story. I am worried he will try to jump through it! I might just be over worrieing things, but it doesn't hurt to be cautious! Yesterday I didn't have to worry about it because there were 2 other people that could help if need be. Today I was alone, per say. So now I am ringing a bell and then giving him a carrot. (Mini carrot) Every time the bell rings, a carrot is produced! Eventually I will go to another part of the yard and ring the bell, in hopes he will come! He likes carrots so I think this may work!!



I can see he will be needing baths more often if we keep going into the arena! LOL

He may have gotten dirty but that feels oh soooooo good.

WHAT a little sweetie! He's such a teeny little thing, and he looks like he has a lot of personality

Aww, what a cute little guy

I love seeing them enjoying themslves

 

[Marsha Cassada]

He just couldn't seem to get enough of that sand! What a cute guy!

 

[O So]

Yah, he is really enjoying his time in the arena!

We went there on last Friday and he was awesome! I turned him loose and he ran for a bit and then when he got done doing his thing, he just walked back over to me!!

I talked to some of the boarders and they said it would be fine for me to put something on the gate to block the big gaps as long as I take it down when I am done. So I am going to get me some of that orange mesh stuff like you see when people are trying to block off a work area type setting. I will just roll it on the gate and tie each end, then I can just re roll it back up when I am done!! That way I can atleast enjoy MY time in the arena too, and not have to worry so much!! I might be able to just use a thick rope to tie between the lower and middle bar on the gate, to give the appearance that there is another bar there! I will have to figure out what will work best! Either way I am just happy I will be able to have fun too now!!

Now I can take my video camera and shoot with now worries and try to get some better video to share!!

Thanks for all the compliments!!
