We actually had to take a shovel to it and chip it up before he'd cross it.<BR/><BR/>Farrah had some good ideas for getting him to gain confidence on the ice, though, because obviously not all of us are blessed with the luxury of moving south for 6 months of the year. I'll play with that some and report back how it goes, though we don't have as much ice now that it's covered with 8 inches of snow...Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09908198298561132655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271024046569833078.post-39250833068586782832008-12-31T17:18:00.000-08:002008-12-31T17:18:00.000-08:00Hmm, I took it more as a "know when not to go ther...Hmm, I took it more as a "know when not to go there". Crest had trouble with the ice in the paddock, so maybe we should have left him back and grabbed Nugget.<BR/><BR/>So, perhaps I just read it differently. But I took it as a lesson in setting things up for success.<BR/><BR/>Oh well. Crest is okay, and that's the main thing.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16617225641216826558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5271024046569833078.post-68470016322346880702008-12-31T17:15:00.000-08:002008-12-31T17:15:00.000-08:00wow.

BUT hind sight is 20-20, there is no way you could have know he would act like that. I guess this is one of those live and learn type of things. <BR/>Funny cause now my mind of going a hundred miles a minute pondering the whole leadership thing as well lol<BR/>Im glad to hear Crest did not get too hurt.<BR/><BR/>KarieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
