Groundwork with Vio _ Vio is my lovely little eventer-in-training, and his ground-manners are getting a lot better! We haven't started on getting him used to being sat on, but his gait is tons better than when we started! I put on his halter and took him out of the paddock to get to the arena, where I've been trying to get most of his training done, so I can get him properly acquainted to where I'll be backing/taking a first ride on him! I was super excited for today's lesson, because we'd finally be introducing some poles to help him correct his trot. I got one of my friends to help take one of our other eventers, Citrus(he's a cutie, go check out my other art update on him) and take him on a circuit of the poles while Vio watched. Vio seemed to be pretty interested, and not the least bit wary, so I took him over and let him take his time with them. After that, we started on our usual routine, however once we got to the poles, he took it all in stride and completed the exercise perfectly! After we went over it a few more times, I took him for a quick pat down, and gave him some much deserved treats! _ I'm not so good at drawing full-body humans so I omitted the actual training part haha I also forgot to add shading T-T Creds to @ghostsonqs and @thghorse for giving me the original idea Original design(horse)- @ghostsonqs The update- Me
