Dakota gets a person of his very own

Today a young lady came out to give Dakota a try for a possible lease. It went perfectly! They loved each other. She's a very soft, balanced, tactful rider. She also already knows how to deal with his head-shyness. She has a bunch of experience competing in both English and Western as an undergraduate. She'll probably want to ride him a few more times before committing, but I have a good feeling about it! The guilt is already starting to fade :)
