Re: [RC] Spooky Horses - Chris Paus

So true. there are some horses who will calm somewhat,
but they will never be beginner's horses. My endurance
horse is that way. He's 17 and still full of fire.
He's calmer with me because we've reached an
understanding, but he'll never be an appropriate horse
for beginners.

I think waaaaayyy too many people buy horses who are
just a wrong match. 


And just to balance - that I ride a nice Arab
gelding who is convinced
squirrels are killers and my calm approach has not
convinced him  that they
are not.  One day I sort of said "sheesh" and he
about jumped out of his
skin.
