the history is a three year old gelding not cut until he was two and is owned by the same girl since he was 7 months old
she has caused a bully, no respect for humans and no bounderies.
i tell you id rather worth with a horse that is untouched and wild. than a horse that is willful and spoiled.
i
uve started to lunge him when Hes with its owners. perhaps i need to do this when she is not around.
today after we were done i was standing near his left side of his head. she was near my right arm and standing next to him near his side. i saw her out of the corner of my eye her right hand touch his side i could not react. all of a sudden his head slammed into my face. broke my glasses and my eye brow was cut .
i wacked him on his forehead. hard.
again suggestions will be considered.
the man of the house called me and was furious. that this little horse is dangerous and perhaps he should get a cowboy here to ride this horse and get him to be respectful
again she is nice.. to nice and not teaching bounderies.

I know boarders pay the bills.... Me, I would just tell them the horse has no respect, no manners and you will not be hurt by him again because of it. They can either step-up and start to educate the animal in human respect or step out the door and find another place to keep him. You're willing to help make the animal a nicer, safer citizen to be around but there will be no disrespect from either of them as owners who don't know how to do, when to do obviously or you would not have their disrespectful animal at your barn. Jo, he's with you because no one else will have him as a boarder I bet. That is not a put-down but... stand on the top step and cheer. They lucked out with you because you do know how to train and get a animal respectful without abuse... The "gentle" owner needs to watch herself before she is injured seriously and you know its not if but when...
Their $ is not worth you being injured. We as we age not heal as fast or as well, so defend you and not put you in such jeopardy please..  |

hl4l i agree we have been thru so much together. and he is only worked when the owner is here.
she needs to learn not to coddle and baby him.. her boyfriend knows and hate this horse. hes been bitten and kicked and she is all kind and gentle instead of being firm
i try to get her to be firm but is not an easy task as she is the 30 ish type that believes in non control and non punishment.
i try to tell her this is a horse and not a yorkie.
when she leaves for vacation without her friend than we will get someone else to ride this horse and perhaps he will get some respect.

Set some hard boundaries and they get followed by one and all...no snowflaking by the owner.
She is one oops away from you or far worse as you probably had a last second instinctive duck from years of horse she is going to take a hard hit far worse.
If one and all demand, he either complies or finds the ante is upped on discipline he will not like and carefully be given to him when and only as necessary.
If consistent handling arrives, as it must he can be reprogrammed to become a better citizen of the horse-world or...let his owner deal with him elsewhere cause you don't need to be hurt.
At our age we not bounce as easily nor heal as fast or well...
I would not be tolerating nor inviting troubles on my doorstep because the snowflake can't or won't do what is right for the animal...
If something ever happens to the snowflake, what becomes of a animal like this is truly unpleasant and all her fault and doing.

they were here today better half videoing her moves, and when she asked the horse for reverse he balked picked up his nose planted his front feet and she flew in front of him almost on her knees to signal him to go into another direction.
i immediately yelled at her.
her partner was concerned whispered for me to get after this horse.
after she stopped and rested we were working her second horse i told her i was concerned for her and her safety im not worried about the horse.
she agreed and thanked me
there is a rider showing up to get on him. and i told the owner that im not responsible if anything happens . i will keep you all posted.

the little bully was ridden today by a horse mexican reason i say that in his country he broke wild mustangs.
he did great the little horse was tired. but no buck.
now he is being taken to cowboy camp,, heaven knows what that is. im not going to stress about it. the man of the family just wants to get rid of both horses they are costing him lots of money and aggrivation.

i understand the little horse was free lunged after its trailer ride and decided to charge the trainer.
she said now she knows what she is dealing with
well on to the next saga
the older horse was ridden and was being walked around i entered the aisleway to hear mantra music.. could not figure out where it was coming from lol the phone of the owner who is into yoga and meditation..
she said it was supposed to calm the horse.. i told her to turn it off. the rider smiled towards me as if to say thanks shes nuts.
