    So glad you & Maggie ok. The bruising looks nasty!! Really interesting vlog, Evie. Red did so well outside, especially with the wind. Your join-up is amazing. He is so trusting of you, focusing on you & respecting your space. Looking forward to following your 'Red journey'. Well done to your Mum too, for her excellent camera work🎉

    Loved watching his brain ticking over. When I introduce a roller/girth I always hold it and the straps and as for a backstep or side step gradually holding it tighter as I go but allows me to add the pressure without a full-on explosion and found it to work quite well and usually nothing when it's girthed up properly as they've had the chance to take it in with the pressure on . :)

    • @ELSEventing
      @ELSEventing  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s a good suggestion. It’s such a fine line between having it secure so if they explode it doesn’t fall off and scare them further and trying to avoid an explosion in the first place isn’t it! ❤️

      Thank you very much.
      We had a fall on the flat, 3 fences from home which wasn’t our fault. Both skidded into a tree which ripped Maggie’s saddle off. I was knocked out and had broken my big toe in 3 places and dislocated another toe and badly sprained the ankle. Maggie was ok other than some grazes and looking at the video of the accident we were very lucky to come away with just those injuries.
      Maggie is absolutely fine now. She’s had 2 vet checks and a physio appointment and is very happy in herself. I am improving and able to ride but I can’t really walk at the moment due to the sprained ankle but getting better every day. X

    The cowboy term for desensitization is "sacking out". I'm assuming in the old days, they'd use an empty burlap feed sack.
