I am teaching Zum how to walk on wooden platforms. Every time he puts a foot on the platform, I reward him. He learns quickly. I am introducing Zum to all kinds of things: plastic bags, sheets, tarps, ropes moving on the ground, tack, cardboard, paper, balloons, unusual animals, umbrellas, bicycles, brooms sweeping underfoot, dropped brushes, shipping boots on and off, spraying water, hats, grooming tools, saddle pads, saddle blankets and saddles. I wiggle things around him and under him and place things on his body. Zum thinks this is a fun game! It is!
