RE: Re: Type A horses/good or bad?

I agree with that one!  After working with my "Type A" for 3 years -- he
just isn't anymore (or at least the episodes are RARE).     The only
drawback is that he'll probably never win BC -- he's too relaxed and mellow
to show "animation" once the job is done like some of those other ponies
that never settle down.  That's okay, mellow is good!

LOL!  Just another observation, but a lot of Type A people actually WORRY
the
horse into poorer recovery, and often a non-Type A person can do a lot to
calm the Type A horse down.  I'd suggest that the successful Type A horses
are most often paired with people who can tune out the world and become
calming influences to the horses.  Likewise, Type A people do best paired
with horses that simply don't get upset by much of anything...  :-)
