Sigtýr

has been away for his first training and it was time to visit him and have a look what he's already learned. We didn't know what to expect, but were of course very nosy. Þorarinn Eymundsson is taking care of Sigtýr and we could see how well he has taught him and how much Sigtýr is trusting him. Tóti doesn't have to tie him in the stable when he's putting the saddle on. He stands free in the aisle and waits for what is going to be asked from him. As it should be, he stands still when mounted and walks on the loose rein. New things are very exiting and a bit scary, but Sigtýr is ready to have a look and when he discovers, the thing isn't dangerous, he tries to eat/play with it. I really appreciate the patience Tóti shows with horses, giving them time to learn at their individual speed. Sigtýr seems to be a fast learner and it's easy for him, to carry himself, he's very flexible and offers clearbeat tölt. Trott is his weakest point at the moment, but he's only trained for 8 weeks alltogether, so we are not worried about that.

We were happy to see that things are going so well and hope it will stay like that til we visit them again.
