I shouldn't really make lists, because they never go to plan/never get round to it or something else, but I think that the first step into beginning to structure Shadow's work, is to perhaps structure my life and begin to organise his work regime in order for him to develop and for progress to be made- at the moment, I'm kinda skiving off and playing games with the clicker, or just chillaxing, it is nice to just sit back and do nothing, but despite the winter months having arrived, this is an opportunity for lots of work to be done- poor us!
I'll break the lists down into smaller segments so I can begin to see what needs doing/what has been done!
- Stand still by mounting block and allow to be mounted- stand still after I get on.
- Walk on when I ride him in the school/yard
- Understand basic commands- leg, hand aid etc.
- ''Grown-ups are talking'' game
- Develop in-hand work
I think grown ups, will be our first step toward progressing, this will enable us to work on lots of things...
- Stand still when asked ( pretty much there)
- Keep a distance at times ( sometimes gets a bit pushy if he doesn't understand)
- Lead back to the field
-Pick up feet on a lighter cue....
- Walk on in-hand
-Stand still when I walk away
That's just the basis for now, will paste in some bits and bobs into this bit later on.

So, will break these down in my head later, and paste in some helpful advice I've had from others
