horse ribbons was Re[2]: [RC] Stallions - Bill Johnson

Hello All,

 I  have been trying to lurk, just added a few things here and there,
 but I wanted to say some things.

 My  big buddy (a 18yr old stallion) & I went on our very first ride,
 appropriately, I think, it was an LD.

 It  was  my  first  time  riding  him  with  anything  other than my
 wife/riding  partner  at  home.  Under  saddle,  Mark  (my horse) is
 incredibly  well  behaved,  albiet  he  gets  a touch excited at the
 beginning  of  any  trip.  On lead he can be a bit of a pain, simply
 because  he  is 17 hands of horse. I am trying to break him of these
 habits.

 I  kept getting asked "What do those pretty yellow ribbons mean?" on
 my horse. One person that asked me was also riding a stallion...

 I do not view my yellow ribbons as any sort of danger, just a polite
 way  to  let  people  know  he  is  intact,  I  would  not  bring an
 out-of-control horse to any sort of public venue.

MM> No flames, just replace HORSE for stallion and I'm agreed.  Gender is no 
excuse for poor behavior from ANY equine!!
