This is Geroge. I along with three other students  recieved our steers on November 8th, 2012. I had George for about 8 months and 3 weeks. Sonce the first day I got him, every day I would come in monrings and night to clean and feed.  He wasn't too friendly at the beginning due to the fact that he was still a baby, and I was a strange person for him. After weeks have goned by, I would get closer to him so that he would understand that I was a friendly person. He eventually got used to me and started to walk towards me more often. Everyday I camed in, I amde sure that he was taken care of. I began practicing with him by first putting on the halter on him so that he would get used to it, and not go crazy. I would then start to practice walking with him. Because in order for him to show, he needed to learn how to walk with a person holding on to him. As he learned, his progress increased and he became better and better each day. He finally learned to walk with me. The first day we sheared our steers was on April 9th. Our first practice show was at Youth Expo at the OC fairgrounds from April 12 to the 14. Overall I placed 2nd place with George. The same routine continued until the 2012 OC Fair, where it would be my termination of the project.
