I love pushing and exaggerating colours like this, it really scratches an itch in my brain. Got to make that horse ORANGE!

still paying off Star and Bom's vet bills from February/March and now Star's got another nasty looking eye ulcer 😭

The ulcer is really bad, big scratch across his eye :( Hope it responds well and clears up quickly like the last one 🤞

With the click, the trainer says, "You've done enough good behavior for the moment; now it's my turn to do some good behavior" (e.g., playing with or feeding or releasing you). [...] Alex's definition of clicker training also conveys the two-way nature of the process and the deep and resonating joy that clicker trainers experience. [...] This reciprocal exchange of reinforcement between learner and teacher -- the animal behaving in a way that pleases the trainer, followed by the trainer behaving in a way that pleases the animal, over and over -- is the very definition of a cooperative partnership. The rewards flow in both directions, with each partner taking turns behaving in desirable ways.

I feel like I'm in that liminal space where I know I'm going to have to let Star go soon but don't know when the right time is. Most days he's fine, gets around the paddock well and seems happy enough. But the other night he went through a fence and it wasn't the first time. I don't want to wait for the day he seriously hurts himself but I don't want to rob him of more good days either. He seems to struggle a lot when it's very windy, I worry about how he'll cope as we move into winter and the weather gets worse. Ugh it's so hard, especially since he's doing so well weight wise and doesn't seem to be struggling with mobility(saw him get up from a roll with ease the other day). It's just his eyesight. The quality of life question weighs heavily on me.
