You can't really blame him for being upset about a horse blowing past him. A lot of horses would have a problem with that. The part on the ground though... that would bother me. I used to have an OTTB who was like that. I literally felt like my life was in danger when leading him if he got excited, so I gave him to someone with more experience (and guts) than I have. I hope that was a one time thing. The way he is makes me really wonder what his past was like.... you would think an ex-racehorse would be used to all kinds of commotion. I don't know. I'm glad you had some good rides though. I bet you guys would have fun doing some jumpers shows at first. Less pressure while he learns to deal with the show environment.Achieve1dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15401246064499148344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557992152073605177.post-32571476063528455072015-07-31T11:37:57.239-05:002015-07-31T11:37:57.239-05:00love the pictures! also yea, like the others said ...love the pictures! also yea, like the others said - do whatever feels right to you. nbd if it's not what you originally plannedemmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557992152073605177.post-70854113055166534682015-07-29T20:26:31.104-05:002015-07-29T20:26:31.104-05:00My bad baby is fantastic the second or third day a...My bad baby is fantastic the second or third day at a facility, typically.

...If you don't want to event, I totally get it.<br /><br />On the other hand, how a green bean behaves at his first outing (AT THE FREAKING KHP) really has very little bearing on what he's going to be like. Go to the shows. All of them. Courage and I are doing event derbies this year just because they're cheap and accessible (and offer a ground poles division). We're probably going to hit up a trail compeition. Whatever. It's all about teaching them how to show. <br /><br />But yeah. Jumpers are great. I'm actually pretty excited about dressage.

We adults have to work all day and that is WAY too much work to come home and now have a blast doing whatever we want.
