caleb was working on calming whiskey down. "um, i dont think so" he said half paying attention. he was more worried about checking whiskeys leg. "stupid dog bit him" he muttered under his breath. whiskey was now calm enough to check properly. the dog had drew blood.

caleb looked at taylor. "im sorry tay" he knew he came across the wrong way and felt really bad

"yeah ok. i guess ill just have to annoy you instead" he said nudging her with his shoulder playfully. "this years gone to crap hasnt it." there was no telling how long whiskey would take to heal maybe it was time to break in angel, or show those he cared about how he truley felt

caleb shook his head and went to see angel. he knew he had stuffed up with taylor. he stood on the outside of the round pen. angel had been cooped up in the pen for weeks. no wonder the mare was moody. caleb put a lead rope on the mare and took her for a walk. on their walk angel spooked and ran off. "crap" caleb went back to the barn and saw taylor. "taylor, i need a horse. good at roping" he said urgently. he couldnt loose angel. he had just started on her again. and he couldnt get whiskey to help him as he was injured.

caleb tacked bear up and mounted. hed never ridden bear before but oh well. as long as angel was caught, right? the small gelding was fast. they soon found angel and roped her in. caleb lead the mare back giving bear a lot pats. when they go back caleb put angel back in the round pen and cooled off bear washing the gelding so he shone then putting him back in his stall. after hed finished caleb got an english saddle and saddle pad and put them on the round pen railing. he then grabbed a girth that looked like it might fit angel.
