feel free to PP heath teaching him how to mount and sit on the horese! Big Grin

It was always best to become acquainted with a partner before beginning any sort of partnership. If he had Niro jump on the mares back right now they two would not have confidence in one another and someone would get hurt. And it would likely be Niro. Then what would anyone learn? Heath did not consider himself a wise wolf, and he was not exactly the best example when it came to life lessons. But in the ring he was confident and his instincts did not steer him wrong. He had learned to read a horse, and his natural sense of reading his own kind helped when teaching others to work with the hoofed beasts. The only other he could trust to do the same was Anann, her horse sense was perfect in his eyes.

This would make them both more comfortable with the other, before putting them in a position where it was possible to fall. Heath stood in the middle, turning slowly as they walked and seeing the change in the horse’s steps as well as the posture of the wolf. Niro’s dazed and confused night was pretty much forgotten by the Marshal as his focus was completely taken over by the new task. He let them walk a few more times around the ring and then waved them to a stop. Alright, give her a pat on the nose to thank her. He said, noting that praise for the mare cooperation was key.

He hopped the fence and fetched a saddle. It’s leather was worn and frayed at some of the edges but it worked just fine. A blanket was placed on the fence post and he rested the saddle there too. Bring her around here, and Ill show you how to fit the saddle. Then you’ll be riding in no time. Amber eyes looked at the male, How are you doing? he asked. Climbing over the fence again Heath picked up the blanket and stood beside the mare.

He gave the instructions slowly and waited for him to give a nod before moving to the next step. The snugness of the saddle was emphasized, for Heath was always strict about the horse’s comfort.
