Re: [RC] competitive vs herd bound - Elizabeth Walker

OK.  That's interesting.  I haven't had experience with this combination.  Shadow might have been getting to that point, but he started life out as a confirmed follower.

I disagree.  I have a mare who is both competitive and herd bound.  She wants to catch AND PASS other horses, but once in front, she'll keep checking to be sure the other horse is back there.  It's not enough to simply catch the horse and hang out with him or her; she wants to be in front.  If that horse falls back, however, she'll be reluctant to move out.  She'll do it if firmly instructed to do so, but she'd rather that other horse come along.

Hmm.  I don't think a horse can be both herd bound and competitive.
