I don't have a lot to report with Mariah. I still haven't had a chance to really do anything with her.
I had her in the round pen one day, but because of personal and time issues, had to cut things short. We didn't accomplish anything, but at least it didn't harm anything, either.
Yesterday and today both marked big steps for Mariah.
Yesterday she allowed me to keep my hand on the top of her nose while she ate from the other one. I've been sneaking pets each day, but this is the first time I was able to hold the contact.
Today, she had to come into a stall to eat. She was cautious, but she did come in, and I just sat outside of it and talked to her while she ate.
This is some video from the end of the day.
