not having done anything with molly since what, wednesday was it? i didn't know what to expect. borrowed friend's rope halter and 12' rope with leather bits on the end, as used by e.g. maxwell and others.
we got right rein trot, with practically no argument whatsoever. I didn't have to spend any time at all moving her legs.
yay.
so after confirming that she would do it by having her do it again, i stopped.
and i now see why those ropes are £20 - that'll be about $40 US jean i expect ... very heavy in the hand, make a satisfactory noise when circled, much easier to use altogether.
and shedding? she's shedding .... it's amazing how easy it is to forget how horrendous the spring moult is between one year and the next!
the pc's at the office, our IT chap said he'd look at it for me
another oddity; the hub would never work on the pc, works perfectly on the laptop. go figure!

Fantastic!!! I knew you could do it! Sometimes it's better to spend the money on the right equipment for a specialized training trchnique. Seems as if this was one of the better times.
You made a good judgment call on this one.
Bitter cold here. You are doing better in the weather department, apparently.
You may tell Molly I am proud of her. Obviously, I am proud of you too. You are sticking with her training and using some really good skills and understanding to solve her problems. I see the making of a great team.
