Outside Paddock Play

Milva and I had our first outside playsession today - in the scarry paddock. All that walking through and approach and retreat paid off. I didn´t plan on playing down there but because she was so cool we did - for 1hour 15min :).
There are alots of cool playthings down there. Like little houses to jump over, a gate to jump over, plastic tubes, blue tons and the coolest thing is the pulvermann ditch - filled with water, to walk, trott and canter through.
I´m really lucky to bord at a place like that!
So coming back to our playsession - we walked over 4 little jumps while I drove her from z3 and z4. We did alot of approach and retreat at the Pulvermann ditch. Some circling game and yoyo.
My main focus was on keeping her lb and giving her the feeling of being safe.
It was super fun to play down there and I think she enjoyed it too, getting all those grazing and scratching breaks ;).
