That's what we've managed to squeeze in since our last catch up!
Our second lesson with Jody Hartstone was just as fantastic as the first one last month! We worked on getting Tech lighter for me and lifting up through the shoulder more, and activating that often-lazy-behind of his, and wow... I had some amazing walk steps in there that felt absolutely brilliant! We also worked on our free walk and our halts too so we covered quite a lot in our 20 minute session. Then Taya hopped up and worked on the same thing at trot but Tech, being the stubborn little toad he can be sometimes, wasn't making life easy for her. There were glimpses of very nice work but he was pulling quite hard, so Jody got on and showed him exactly how he was supposed to do it. I don't think he expected that haha!! After some fine tuning with Jody, Taya hopped back on and took advantage of Tech's new 'Ok I'll do it!' attitude and got some good work out of him, which I'm pleased to say is now continuing at home with a much more obliging attitude! Awesome work team!
The next day we had a visit from Savvy Steve who gave Tech a fab Savvy Touch session. It's fair to say Tech loved it as always! :) It's really great to watch Steve at work and see Tech react, and how much his eye softens and his whole body relaxes by the end of the session. He's always totally chilled out and at ease after his Savvy Touch session and I know he's all ready for work again with no sore spots. Thanks so much Steve! :) We also stocked up on our Mango Butter Sunshade, Cooling gel, and 2 in 1 Shampoo while the "Savvy Truck" was here, so we're all savvied up and ready to go hard again!
