Teddy has had a bit of time to just enjoy the patting and carrots and stuff while I have the halter and lead rope in my hand so he doesn't get the feeling that every time I am with him he is expected to do something.
Saturday was time to put the halter on him again and he would get within cm of me then back away. But once the halter was on he was totally fine - its bizarre! I ended up doing the pressure retreat about 5 times before he gave me his head. Then after that every time he was fine. It looks like we have a fair bit of work to go.
Sunday was pouring when I was home so he had a break day but was at the gate for Steve so he was definitely wondering where I was! That's a good sign that he wants to be with me. We will see how he goes tonight.
