Diesel's last day at Saddle Ridge




Diesel's owners came to my dad's place (Rockiing L Acres) for a lesson, to get more instruction on harness fitting and more experience driving. Then they all came to Saddle Ridge to drive Diesel one more time before taking him home. Diesel has been such a pleasure to train and many of the other boarders miss seeing him around. I rode him the day before, and he did very nicely at all three gaits, and actually seemed to enjoy it.

Jeff and Jillian have been coming out during Diesel's training, and have a good feel for harnessing and driving, and will do a good job with Diesel at their own place. Rowdy was sad to see Diesel go, and I've been spending extra time to console him.

You can browse the archived posts to see Diesel's progress over his time with me.
