Dustin Drove carfully to the stables with the float in tow, he pulled over near the stable and turned the car off. Walking around to the float, Dustin spoke softly while letting the ramp down. Carefully he walked on and untied the rope, Giving Dawson and gently stroked his neck while letting him take his time off the ramp.

Dawson stepped calmly out of the trailer behind Dustin, flicking his ears as he listened to him talking softly to him. Once his hooves touched the ground, he stood patiently, waiting for Dustin to lead him to where he wanted him, bright eyes regarding Dustin with interest.

Dustin smiled at how calm Dawson was, somehow he always ended up with calm horses, just picking the right one. Dustin stroked Dawsons nose and started walking him towards the stable. what if we go for a ride?

Dustin laughed at Dawson's enthusiasm and smiled, he tied Dawson to the side of the float and quickly pulled his saddle out of the car, followed by the bridle and brush. Dustin started Brushing Dawson quickly occasionally stopping to rub his neck.

Dawson waited patiently to be groomed, keeping his impatience to be ridden under check. He nickered softly every now and again and stamped a hoof lightly against the ground, it did feel good to be groomed properly again, the people at the auction house didn't do it much, neither had his previous owners.

Dustin made sure he'd groomed every inch of Dawsons coat, he quickly put the saddle blanket on, followed by the saddle and tightened the girth. Dustin put the reigns over Dawsons head and took off the halter, slipping the bridle on and doing up the straps.

Dawson stood quietly, co-operating whenever Dustin wanted him to while he was saddling him. Ears flicking back and forth, he looked expectantly at him after he had finished, almost as if to say Can we go now?

Dawson went forward eagerly at Dustin's urging, his long, fluid strides eating up the ground beneath them, even at a walk. He only went as fast as Dustin told him to go, he had been trained not to, seeing as though he had been trained to be a show horse, what good would a horse who likes to misbehave be in dressage?

Dustin smiled at the way dawson behaved, he asked him for a trot, headed towards the trails. Most people didn't take horses out the day they bought them, but Dustin wasn't most people, he was crazy, well thats what his friends said. Dustin stroked Dawsons neck.

Dawson moved into a smooth trot with a small shake of his head, ears flicking back to listen to Dustin. He saw the trail ahead and it excited him, it was somewhere new to go and that combined with not being ridden properly in a while made him even more enthusiastic.

Dustin eyed he trail happily, he was glad to get out and ride just for the fun of it, with Cruize it was always to either keep him or get him in show condition. With a small laugh he rubbed Dawson's neck and kept him at a steady trot, hopefully Daawson listened to him.

Dawson tossed his head again, sticking to the steady trot Dustin was keeping him in. He wasn't the type of horse to just bolt or misbehave for no reason, instead quite happy to do whatever was asked of him.
ooc: Sorry, post sucked lol

Dustin smiled at how responsive Dawson was, it was like Riding Cruize or one of his friends horses, one day he'd be able to break in horses like his friend, but it wouldn't be anytime soon. Dustin kicked Dawson on, asking for a canter, then waited to see his response.
