Working Hoot
• When I first got him worked from the ground for an hour a day– I use to stand with a lead rope and throw it over
• Over the last four months I have ridden Hoot four days a week– In the arena

have grass hay– He needs to be worked three times a week so he
can keep weight off and not founder – I have had to become his nutrtionest
