Slow is the word for Regalo. I must slow down with him. He doesn't like being caught like a predator.
Likes my energy, but doesn't like to be rushed. He has so much of that from the previous owner.
Wants to trail ride, wants a balanced rider. Very claustrophobic (this shows in the squeeze game and trailer loading.
Friday i tried to do things he would like, but it was major trauma for him and me. Doesn't feel safe in the pasture with me and doesn't want to graze with older horses. He feels safer in the woods alone.
Sunday I spent time just doing the friendly game around his neck and head on his right side.
I was able to put the stick over the front of him and rub between his ears. He was standing in the wash rack.
Much better day on Sunday.
