thanks for your nice comment. He is a good old boy...a bit hard headed at times. But his steadiness makes up for it. Prob had many owners during his life, each leaving their mark on him.
A bit stubborn, but is coming along good with a good trainer at the facility. He is more willing to canter now and we are actually thinking a horse show doing the cloverleaf barrels. Also working with a lariat around him...no spook, no nothing! llol My goal there is to rope a bale of hay someday while in the saddle. Just so I can say I did it!
Whatever we do, it is fun to have our boy and see how far he has come in a year.
