I walked into the round pen with the bay mare. I let her loose to gallop around me-so she could use up some energy. About 10 minutes later she started to slow.
"£atwe dziewczyny, ³atwe." I soothed her. I wanted to teach her voice commands in Polish.
She spun at a stop and looked at me. "¯e's prawo dziewczyny, ³atwe, spokojny." I told her. She looked at me and took a step closer and inspected me. I stood still so she could.
Finally she nuded me and I slowly started patting her neck.
"Dobre dziewczyny, dobre dziewczyny!" I told her with a smiled. Then I told her to go back out and I started lunging her. I watched her and told her the basic commands.
"Drogi!" I said at first, and she did.
"Pobiegaæ!" I told her, and she did as I said again.
"Lope!" I said lastly to her and she obeyed.
When she started showing sweat, I told her to slow.
"Drogi!" I told her, and she did.
"Zatrzymanie!" And she halted. I dropped the whip and she walked up to me. I patted her and then I heard footsteps behind us.
