Andi has Tina Turner hair - I remember her blonde times. I have pic of him in my mammo room, and I tell patients to turn their head and look at my blonde boyfriend, which is Andi Pandi trotting with his mane and forelock all flying. > Good job with the video; Sharon did a nice job.< Sharon has the ability to read a horse and see what he needs emotionally. I have been somewhat reluctant to let any body ride Andi because of my previous trainer thinking he was being stubborn when he was really scared. Andi trusts her and it is evident in the way he responds so quickly once he understands something. His first reaction to a lot of things is to run away, and this is what he needs to get over. Funny thing, his clicker training and touch the goblin have him fearless of his surroundings, I just need to do more of that type thing from the saddle. Flapping arms, swinging legs, emergency dismounts, etc. Sharon also has the ability to push me past my comfort zone and make me try things I don't want to do. My first emergency dismount yesterday was to the off side, and I have NEVER dismounted fro the off side because I am not that side coordinated and I don't practice things on my green horses, and all my horses have been green. Well, she cajoled me into it and it was easy!! She has a way of doing that without being a bully. She fills you with confidence, and she does the same for the horse. Must take that kind of personality to be a 3 day eventer! Personlly, I think they are crazy!!!
