Larry is NOT a dull boy!I turned Larry loose in the arena yesterday for the first time when a friend came over to meet him. I was hesitant to do it too soon after his arrival here, because his owner had cautioned me that he can jump ANYthing - that's why he was gelded early on. But it went well yesterday, so I turned him out to romp again today, when I took these photos. He gave himself a good workout - more than anything I've done with him, so I finished up with a short lunging session in side-reins to get him working round and over his topline before putting him away.

Yeehaw! Looks like Larry had a good time and aren't you glad you weren't on his back at the time ;o)
Enjoying this new journey. Keep writing!
You know, he is not half bad looking!
Larry looked very happy to be out and about.
You know, he can carry his head just perfectly without a bit... Wonder how you get him to transfer that carriage to holding a bit in his mouth?
Larry is beginning to look like a different horse!
Thanks for the encouragement, TB; I will!
Come on, Mary Ann; he's at least 3/4-good-looking! :-)
Lori, Larry needed some encouragement to move around that much; he just wanted to mosey around and look for grass blades.
Laura, he had plenty of "giraffe" moments, too; I don't share the ugly pictures!
He's looking good!
