Trick time

Well, I spent half last night reading my book Trickonometry, by Carol Fletcher, and went out this morning intending to begin to teach Diamond the trick "Kiss Me!" In which he touched my face with his muzzle. He was reluctant to bring his muzzle to my face, but with persistance he did, and in about half an hour, Diamond knew Kiss Me!! I was rather enthused so I then proceeded to teach him the "Evil, dangerous" trick of rearing on command. This took only about fifteen minutes to teach him! Although his "rear" was bringing his front hooves about one foot off the ground. My lovely little LBI :)I cannot wait till tomorrow, I want to try and train him to "hug" me with his neck.

  1. Hey, great Job....how cool. So thanks to this post I went and added her dvd's to my giddy-upflix que....sounds like fun stuff to play with.

    a couple of weeks ago, we taught a student of mines 3yo lbi to bow in about 15min, it was fun and she was super exited.
