Ankle on the Mend

Megan's ankle was nearly its normal size last night. A little more cold hosing, more Desitin and lots of cookies were the order of the day. She'll probably be ready to go this evening. I hope to get in our inaugural trail ride this weekend or next. I think her education will proceed in leaps and pounds (figurative not literal) if we can get out and work on going forward and straight.

I love finally being able to plan and plot her training and put it into action. Good thing the poor girl doesn't know what's in store! She still runs to the gate to see me and I wonder if that will continue as our interactions are more about work. I hope so and try to keep it fun for her -- and the cookies don't hurt. If all else fails, bribery is your friend. Probably good I don't have human children...
