Oh ya.. shouldn't have really done it straight from the stall.. but I had no 
options..  took longer then I expected and at the same time it re-enforced 
that fact that she shouldn't have to worry about things when I'm handling 
her. Besides.. there was some nice oat hay there when she got past the
fright pf the hay bag. Chuckle.

Yes and no.. horses learn from watching each other.. and take their cues
from same. Anytime Sedona gets nervous going someplace.. take X with you. It 
might also help them to bond a bit better.
