Hawks first trail ride-RAINED OUT!

Not that you can tell by these photos, since by the time we got 45 miles home, it was gorgeous out. We took a few turns around the yard here at the house, not much at all, but enough to say that I got on him again for the third time this week, and to add to his experiences. He has probably never been here to the house, so it was something different for him. Also listening to the dogs bark is a distraction he is not used to, so that is one more thing.



The only other new thing we did was introducing him to his dad. That was more for Sly than for Hawk, as Sly tends to assume anyone he meets is a breeding candidate when he first meets them, and had already had his feelings hurt when Twist loaded up to go ride and he was not invited. It went surprisingly well.


The picture of it cracks me up though, as Hawk is standing in a pothole and looks like a midget which he is absolutely not. And look how they are both standing with their feet in virtually the same position, which I did not even notice until I posted the pic.
