My Gentle Mustang

I now own a 'gentled' mustang according to a BLM reliable source.  I  was pretty happy when my friend from BLM came to check my progress and she said I was doing good!  My confidence has been much better since then and tonight I did quite well with Marty.  I can now catch him easily, lunge him and have him turn to me, get in his space (middle of him on each side) without too much fuss from him.  And he is leading at an angle quite well.  The most steps he's taken in one direction is about 6.  And when he pulls (which is so very seldom), he moves right back into me as soon as he sees he didn't get away.  I could tell he was getting tired tonight so I found a good note to end with and called it a night.  I'm actually beginning to think I'm gonna be able to do this!  I will be working on these moves for awhile but I'll let you know when I get to the next major breakthrough!
