Maggie has made great progress since I\\\'ve started working with her. She used to be quite sensitive, difficult to catch, didn\\\'t like being tied up, was very reactive to the flag. She is now much more confident and relaxed, I am able to walk right up to her to catch her, she leads well, we are able to trot together, she sends nicely in all directions. After working with her and the flag, she started out reacting, would try to move away from the flag. We stuck with her with the flag next to her withers, and she eventually calmed down, and we pulled the flag away once she did calm down. Now when we worked with the flag on preparing to tie, she didn\\\'t move at all and was quite calm. She also trailer loads easily and used to have issues with tight spaces, but now really does well and is calm in the medical shoot and with trailer loading.I personally have become more relaxed and confident after working with Maggie. At first I felt intimidated when trying to catch her, she seemed reactive and unpredictable and I was new to working with horses in general, and she seemed like a challenge. We both have grown together and have taught each other how to have confidence and I have learned how to read the horse\\\'s body language and how to ask for her to do things and she now understands what I am asking her to do
