Flying Lead Changes!

Two great sessions in a row!  Yesterday I played and was able to squeeze Cal in and out of the man door into the arena!  Sweet!  then I played in the arena.  The highlight of the session...I got almost a lap of canter.  On the 12’ line!  O_O
Then today Cal was once again willing to go into the arena and play.  He was pretty extroverted, and I played some circling game.  I was really excited when I got two laps of canter.  Later in the session I sent him the other direction, and as he was cantering along, I thought, wonder what’ll happe. if I ask him to change direction.  Got a little bit of a buck thrown in...and a flying lead change!  Yahoo!  After another couple canter laps I asked again, and got another!!!!!  Eeeeek!  Then I left him out there, and he maintained his responsibility very well, cantering more laps in a good frame of mind than I’e ever seen him to before!  YAAAAAYYYYY!!!!

So there you have it, my first ever flying lead changes online!
