It's now January 2012 and Harley is doing great! We are working at liberty in the round pen with little or no bucking, and he is walking, trotting and cantering both directions. Also, Jane is now lungeing Harley in the ring in small circles at the walk and trot both ways, with no explosions or tantrums. When I let him move around in the round pen before I ride him, he is 100% better under saddle.
Harley also got his best report ever from his chiropractor on January 18. No adjustments in his neck and poll, his pelvis was good, just a couple tweaks in his scapula and hoof and one on his back. The combination of chiropractic and free work in the round pen have enabled him to be loose, get the kinks out and have helped him mentally to blow off steam, canter without a rider, and just feel better all over. I've never seen him happier or more relaxed!
