A bit of catch up..Day 1

While stranded in sunny California (woe is me!), I was able to get a lot accomplished with Monty. I worked with him about two hours the first day. At first I just hung out on a bucket...

Then I asked him to yield his hindquarters and shoulders to indirect pressure....

..then I asked for a bit of a sniff..

Finally, I was able to grasp the rope and ask for more...

By the end of the session, I was able to touch him all over.
