Gosh life has been busy. Busy with farm events, busy with horses, busy with homeschooling. Busy, busy, busy! BUT, I want to make time to post about all the comings and goings of our little Diesel! He is but one word ~~ amazing.
When we brought Diesel home, some folks around here recognized him. Told us he was a "bugger," that he was a kicker, that he was difficult, that he did not trust, that he did not bond, that he was just..... more or less a pain in the neck.
Well, everyone was WRONG.
He is NOT a "bugger," he does NOT kick, he is NOT difficult, he DOES trust, he DOES bond, and he is the apple of my eye!
All because...... yep, you guessed it...... we took the time it takes - so it took less time. We are letting him just be who he is and we respect him for that. And, in return he is absolutely wonderful.
He does think the Parelli 7 games are a waste of his time. BUT, I know that once I up my savvy and help him become more interested, we will be doing some fun and interesting things. Things that even Diesel will think are worthwhile.
So, he is doing great. This is truly home for him and he is a happy little mini hinny here with his herd and here on our farm.
Thanks for checking in!

P.S. I promise to be more timely with Diesel's updates, because his journey is worth the read!
