Mikey: began work with him using the dressage whip as a "baton" and directional placeholder. Also worked on lifting his 4 legs; yielding all 4 quarters, back, whoa. use of clicks/treats. Brushed him.
Duchess: lunge, gently. She starts gimpy with that left hind.  She is much better about yielding her forequarters to a nudge/tap.
Plato: wow! he likes to move! he even cantered for me briefly on the line! I walked him 12 min. Yielded all 4 quarters. Brushed him.
Lily: a bit "shy" about being caught. only using lead rope over her neck for now. Swat on her navel; around eyes; brushed her a bit. she likes treats. using them to encourage head down for now. trying to teach her head down more than anything else for. now. some TTouch.
