Today I got to play with Scarlett for about a half hour in the arena. She's doing pretty well with leading, and she picks up her feet pretty quick as well! She's a little bit of a challenge to catch when she is loose, so I wait for her to come to me instead of going after her, and she likes to try to sneak up on me, but she didn't take too long to get today! She's usually good about the blanket, but she doesn't like the hooks to dangle if they aren't hooked to the blanket and today she wasn't too sure she wanted to put it back on after I took it off, but we got it done. Whenever I take of her blanket, I notice some white hairs on her side, as well as some on the top of her tail, which makes me wonder if she has a little bit of the rabicano(however it's spelled) markings or if those are just strange hairs.. At this moment she is pretty happy because I turned her out in her little pasture so she can have some fresh air and grass, but she didn't want me to leave her alone; whit a little bit of debating with her whinnying and me replying, I finally convinced her she would be all right.
