Two trainers joined the challenge: Jérémy with Fortune in RMMO, and Olivier with Canina in MMO.
Apart from this, no notable incident has been reported. Couples evolve at their own pace and that of their partner.
The weather, although unstable, is still more conducive to outdoor outings. With the days getting longer, the days are longer, which makes filming easier.
MMO All in the saddle, or almost!
Kalinka
This pretty mule turns out to be really very nice, kind, confident with her partner Anouk, and willingly accepts Dominic now. Moreover, she tolerated it on her back during a walk outside, in magnificent landscapes.
His first mounted sessions were a success, without stress, with sometimes some misunderstandings for beginners. She appears calm and patient, still full of energy, and is not afraid of much.
Préciosa
The beautiful and kind Préciosa has not denied her reputation as a kind young lady. With its biped Nadja, this couple evolves cleanly, smoothly.
Préciosa took her first steps under the saddle, in a riding school, then outside, which was a sort of non-event for her, except that outside there are plenty of things to see.
She also tried Mule Jumping, but it's not really her thing.
Canina
Canina joined the challenge with Olivier at the beginning of May. Canina has been worked on before, but not properly, resulting in apprehension of humans and flight behavior, even if humans intrigue her. Yes, Canina is curious.
Her new owners entrusted her to Olivier Barascud, who is also an equine behaviorist. She is in good hands. For these first sessions, Olivier seeks to create a bond, studies his defenses and addresses them by proposing appropriate solutions. He also seeks to establish relaxation in their interactions.
Kouli
It's touching to see how the relationship between Kouli and Coralie develops in an atmosphere of intimacy and trust. These moments of calm and connection are precious and essential to strengthening their bond. Mules, like many other animals, deeply appreciate these moments of tranquility shared with their favorite humans.
Kouli's passage to the saddle after the bat marks an important step. The fact that his first career steps with Coralie went smoothly is a testament to the patience and mutual understanding they share. This progression, carried out without haste and with great gentleness, is the reflection of a harmonious and respectful relationship. This shows how crucial it is to respect the animal's rhythm to establish a lasting and peaceful relationship.
Julia
The month of May brought its share of challenges for this couple. Julia, suffering from lower back pain, had to be stopped, but fortunately, a visit to the osteopath helped to resolve this problem. However, finding the ideal saddle remains a priority. Julia represents a real challenge in terms of saddlery, being a mule with a fine conformation, a straight back and lightly defined shoulders.
As expected, Julia turns out to be a delicate and sensitive creature, as agile as a cat and capable of very rapid reactions. Joshua, with all his expertise, must demonstrate great finesse and skill to adapt to his particular needs. His extensive experience is reassuring, as he is well equipped to handle this situation.
Despite these complications, Julia also ascended, showing that she continues to progress and adapt to challenges with the help of her dedicated team.
Eporédo
The little piece of the MMO continues his peaceful path in the mountains, surrounded by his human Patricia, his friend Lamy, goats and yaks. This little philosopher follows his own rhythm, a rhythm that Patricia respects with great patience and kindness.
The bat is almost acquired, as well as the use of the saddlebags. There's still a little work left before it's fully ready for mountain escapades. The trust and dialogue between him and Patricia must still be strengthened and refined.
Little by little, he begins to come out of his shell. These moments are fleeting, but they are more and more present, a sign of continuous progress and an increasing openness towards its environment and its companions. he will certainly become a safe and confident companion for all adventures to come.
RMMO
The two friends Duende and Nikita were joined by Fortune, the rebel.
The group is complete.
These three will be searching for their forever family.
They have had or will have an animal communication session with Cécile Guillaume, to explain the situation to them, learn to speak well with humans in order to find them their human for life
Duende
The hypersensitive has really left his baggage with Raphaëlle, it's a given, she's his referent.
The fine work continues, the result is there, it's fluid, harmonious, when Duende is available, because like a good self-respecting mule, sometimes there are more interesting things to do, including tracking your favorite girlfriend.
Raphaëlle prepares him for riding, acceptance of a bareback riding mat, the weight of the human in a potato sack, it goes pretty well.
For this couple too, the saddle will pose a problem
Duende is up to date with vaccinations, has seen the dentist and is ready for trimming and osteo visit
His papers are in progress, Duende being a mule coming from Spain, it's more complicated
Fortune
This little thoroughbred mule is more complicated than expected. Jeremy must be racking his brains... Rebel, the mule defending in all its splendor, flees the human. He learned that by showing the buttocks and throwing the posteriors, he could intimidate them.
A post on the story of Fortune and her two companions will be made. But in Fortune's life, there was some very, very bad, then some very, very good, and some not good, because there was great sadness. Jeremy picked up a disillusioned, sad and aggressive Fortune.
The typical example of the mule who didn't want to leave his house, his friends, where he was so happy
Their first steps were towards approach, connection, contact. Fortune masters the lunge snatch magnificently...
He is up to date with his vaccinations, his CA has been done, his feet remain
Nikita
The rebellious little cork loves his new life. The climate has allowed her to be put in the meadow, and she is having a blast. This human, Nadja, she really likes her. She offers him lots of varied activities and Nikita appreciates that. Besides, Nikita does everything with her eyes closed: the Equifeel, the Mountain Trail, the walking games and even the jump. Future Mule Jumping champion in her category!
Nadja continues work on taking the hindquarters for trimming. Remember, in April, she found the solution: she sat down...
We begin to see what Nikita excels at: the Equifeel, the Mountain Trail and a lot of presence from his human reference. Nikita seems exclusive, needs her human all to herself. She's a precious little princess, and she knows it
As a reminder, when Nikita was picked up by the first association, she threw herself against the walls of her box, tore off the lead, with zero confidence in humans. She’s come a long way, the thing!
She is up to date with her vaccinations, previous ones OK, later ones to come. His papers are in order
To financially help the trainers and the association in the care of these three mules, it is here
