Well, Billys first ride was just awesome. We climbed from 1400 to 3300 and he just wanted to keep on going. He never got winded and tried to trot op the steep parts (which I didnt let him do for right now). He lead the whole ride and was just wanting to get around the next corner to see what else was out there. Hes a really nice little guy. I think hes going to really take to this trail/endurance stuff. He sure had a good time today. 

He also got his first bath J I started by spraying the floor around him and by the time I got the warm water on his body he was completely calm and quiet and seemed grateful for the warm bath J Ive never had a youngster that was this calm and easy to deal with. He did give me a bit of trouble on the trail when I made him stay at a walk and also when I asked him to go one way or stop and he had other plans. But, nothing we couldnt work through pretty easily. 

Im so very happy with him. Were going to have so much fun growing together! Thank you so much!
